This paper presents an acceleration slip regulation strategy for distributed drive electric vehicles with two motors on the front axle. The tasks of the strategy include controlling the slip ratio to make full use of the road grip and controlling the yaw rate to eliminate the lateral movement...

A “4-cell” modular passive DMFC (direct methanol fuel cell) stack, which can be freely combined and applied to various electronic devices, is designed, fabricated and tested. Two PCB (printed circuit board) based accessories are designed and fabricated for electrically connecting and...

This paper estimates the capitalization of school district consolidation into housing prices in New York State between 1990 and 2000. We utilize first differencing and 2SLS to account for district heterogeneity and possible endogeneity of the consolidation decision. We find that consolidation...

This study presents a methodology for risk analysis, assessment, combination, and regionalization of integrated drought and waterlogging disasters in Anhui Province, which is supported by geographical information systems (GIS) and technique of natural disaster risk assessment from the viewpoints...

In this study, an improved CO₂ separation and purification system is proposed based on in-depth analyses of cryogenic separation and distillation theory as well as the phase transition characteristics of gas mixtures containing CO₂. Multi-stage compression, refrigeration, and separation are...

This paper presents a bilevel programming framework for a harmonizing model with transfer tax (HMTT) on water pollution across regional boundaries of a lake basin in China, where the administrator is the upper-level decision maker and individual regions consisting of the lake basin are the...

Time series often contain unknown trend functions and unobservable error terms. As is known, Yule–Walker estimators are asymptotically efficient for autoregressive time series. The focus of this article is the Yule–Walker estimators for time series with trends. A nonparametric detrending...
