The use of road humps for moderating speeds on Urban streets


The use of road humps for moderating speeds on
Urban streets


Road humps are devices placed in the path of traveling vehicles. They are used in many communities to keep a uniform and low speed on a residential street or to reduce speeds at specific locations, such as intersections or pedestrian crosswalks. While the effectiveness of road humps in moderating speeds at the site of installation is generally considered proven, the actual adoption of the device re ....etc

Introduction
Noise can be defined as unwanted or undesirable sound. The word noise is derived from a Latin word nausea meaning seasickness.

Be it human or machine-created noise disrupts the activity and balance of life. Humans, animals, plants and even inert objects like buildings, monuments and bridges have been the victims of noise pollution.

Noise pollution is considered as major hazards of modern life especially in urban areas-areas that are most industrialized and urbanized.

A Wireless Sensor Network and Incident Command Interface for Urban Firefighting
The Fire Information and Rescue Equipment project has been implemented for designing a prototype wireless sensor
network which is suitable for Incident Command (IC) interface for urban

and industrial firefighting and emergency response.A fixed
WSN which is deployed in the building acts as the backbone for communication between mobile personnel and Incident

Command. The system uses a TinyOS operating system running on a Telo ....etc

ABSTRACT
In this project we have focused on problems of urban area traffic congestions and opted the underpass as best solution. Since traffic congestion is a severe problem in all existing metropolitan & upcoming metropolitan cities, traffic congestion results to delay in work, fuel wastage, diseases to humans, etc. The paper consists of case study, analysis and design of underpass at rotary junction near IGI airport Delhi. In this project we have designed an underpass using Finite Element Approach by BOX Method. Th ....etc

3-DIMENSIONAL VIRTUAL REALITY IN URBAN MANAGEMENT

ABSTRACT:

The emergence of virtual reality and related tools is providing the fundamental infrastructure to begin building virtual cities which can provide an interactive simulation and analysis environment for planning and management of urban places. The virtual city will provide urban managers with a computer environment to interface with the multitude of complex physical and social data needed to plan and manage cities, along with necessary tools to explore and ....etc

Magnet (PM), Pulse Width Modulation (PWM)
Abstract
A new concept in Urban Maglev transportation design is in the testing phase. The vehicle uses
permanent magnets (PM) for both the electro-dynamic suspension (EDS) and linear synchronous
motor (LSM) propulsion. Because of the 3D coupled non-linear velocity-dependent magnetic
levitation, the LSM must provide stabilizing forces to the vehicle. To do this, Vector Control is used

Abstract
Traffic is a major problem for the urban population these days. Hence, through this paper, it is intended to
provide an online portal that will help a user browse through for the real time traffic status of a particular
area which he/she wants to reach. In case of heavy traffic congestion in that area, the next best shortest
route(s) to reach the same location will be shown. The web portal will also contain dynamic querying
facility to enable the user to find the possible traffic density in any particular area for some tim ....etc
