Inspired by carangiform fish with a high-aspect ratio of the caudal fin?s up-down swing, but also by dolphins with a similar caudal fin?s left-right swing, a robotic fish with a spatial oscillating rigid caudal fin is implemented to optimize propulsion a...

A curved riparian zone can create highly complex flow patterns that have a great effect on erosion, pollutant transport, surface water-groundwater exchange and habitat qualities. The small-disturbance theory has been applied to derive the analytical solu...

Spur dikes are river protection structures typically used for flow diversion from erodible banks. However, scouring might be a severe problem that compromises their stability and, consequently, their hydraulic function. This paper aims to study the maxim...

The Jump Point Search (JPS) algorithm ignores the possibility of any-angle walking, so the paths found by the JPS algorithm under the discrete grid map still have a gap with the real paths. To address the above problems, this paper improves the path opti...

We employ as a speeding-accident rate index the probability of an accident caused by speeding on a curved expressway. This is defined as the probability that the actual speed of a car entering a curve exceeds the maximum safe speed of the curve in accord...
