  • Infranomics

    Sustainability, Engineering Design and Governance

    Series series Engineering (R0)
    This book provides a rough entry into the interdisciplinary field of Infranomics. It enables better decision making in an increasing ambiguous, complex, emergent, interdependent, and uncertain world where we attempt to anticipate modern society trends and patterns in order to react appropriately. However, as with any emerging discipline, much research is needed at the applications and conceptual ... Leer más

  • Critical Infrastructures, Key Resources, Key Assets

    Risk, Vulnerability, Resilience, Fragility, and Perception Governance

    Series series Engineering (R0)
    In the face of increasing failures, comments attributed to Albert Einstein loom large: “We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them.” There is a pervasive feeling that any attempt to make sense of the current terrain of complex systems must involve thinking outside the box and originating unconventional approaches that integrate organizational, managerial, ...

  • Stochastic Evolutions of Dynamic Traffic Flow

    Modeling and Applications

    Series series Engineering (R0)
    This book reveals the underlying mechanisms of complexity and stochastic evolutions of traffic flows. Using Eulerian and Lagrangian measurements, the authors propose lognormal headway/spacing/velocity distributions and subsequently develop a Markov car-following model to describe drivers’ random choices concerning headways/spacings, putting forward a stochastic fundamental diagram model for wide ...
