The vehicle driving trajectory and driving direction were defined, and a classification of the type of vehicle trajectories along the curves was developed. The statistical parameters of vehicle trajectory samples in free flow and their frequency curves and cumulative frequency curves were achieved, K-S test and chi-square test were used to test normal distribution and gamma distribution for collected sample data, and the probabili- ty density functions were given. At last, dispersion degree between vehicle trajectory random varia- ble and the characteristic value of cumulative frequency curve in each key cross section in curves was analyzied. The proposed conclusion can provide theoretical support for the reasonable optimization of widen curve, design of alignment and the management of counter flow conflicts.展开更多

This work is carried out to establish a ＂DDF （Depth-Duration-Frequency）＂ relationship for the region of Annaba （Northeast of Algeria） through the examples of Pont Bouchet （El Hadjar）, Ain Berda and Chafia-Dam rainfall gauges. The results of the frequency study of stochastically generated annual series （Pearson＇s distribution type III model） and the regression analysis （least square method） permitted to develop a master curve that well describes heavy rainfalls distribution in the Annaba region. This 2-parameter model is used to predict, with sufficient accuracy, the amount of rain that could be recorded over a shorter duration from daily rainfall data in basins that lack recording rain gauges.展开更多

A Levenberg–Marquardt Gaussian fitting algorithm has been used for analyzing the overlap of three peaks(the 583-ke V peak of^(208)Tl, the 609-ke V peak of214 Bi, and the 662-ke V peak of^(137)Cs) using an in situ Na ...A Levenberg–Marquardt Gaussian fitting algorithm has been used for analyzing the overlap of three peaks(the 583-ke V peak of^(208)Tl, the 609-ke V peak of214 Bi, and the 662-ke V peak of^(137)Cs) using an in situ Na I(Tl) scintillation spectrometer. The algorithm, in addition,was compared with a genetic algorithm used for multiple deconvolution. The three fitted peak areas(583, 609, and662 ke V) were calculated from the measured gamma-ray spectra obtained from a simulation experiment in which a^(137) Cs source was buried at different soil depths(from 18 to38 cm). The application of the Levenberg–Marquardt algorithm yielded similar results compared to the genetic algorithm. A lack-of-fit test showed that the fitting is good when the instrumental noise levels were estimated from replicated analyses. The relative fitting error of the total net area and the residual standard deviation were within 5 %and 0.04, respectively, and the goodness of the fitting was better than 0.98. While the methods used in this paper give high performance, the results may lead to incorrect estimation when the signal-to-noise ratio is smaller than-30 d B. This study is useful for the determination of radioactive specific activity of^(137) Cs by in situ spectrometry.展开更多
