In this paper we investigate the relationship between trade intensity and the business cycle correlation using a panel data set taken from 24 countries over the period 1959-2003. Most previous studies did not account for the possibility that the business cycle correlation may be influenced by...

Simulations of the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) phase VI wind turbine using dynamic overset grid technology are presented. The simulations are performed in an inertial frame of reference with the rotor consisting of the blades and hub. The geometries of the tower and nacelle are...

Path travel time reliability is an essential measure of the quality of service for transportation systems and an important attribute in travelers’ route and departure time scheduling. This paper investigates a fundamental problem of finding the most reliable path under different spatial...

With a particular emphasis on the end-to-end travel time prediction problem, this paper proposes an information-theoretic sensor location model that aims to minimize total travel time uncertainties from a set of point, point-to-point and probe sensors in a traffic network. Based on a Kalman...

The direct conversion of CO2 and CH4 into liquid products is a meaningful process but full of challenges, especially for tuning the liquid product distribution. Here, Cu and amino group functionalized metal-organic frameworks catalyst (Cu/UiO-66-NH2 ) were designed for a one-step synthesis of...
