Bus-bridging evacuation services can significantly enhance metro resilience during operational disruptions.A resilience-based optimization model was proposed to generate a bus bridging and dispatching plan.The objective of the model is to maximize the resilience index of evacuated passengers while meeting pre-established restrictions on operational
We perform scanning gate experiments on Platters ballistic constrictions in the presence of small perpendicular magnetic fields.The constrictions form the entrance and exit of a circular gate-defined ballistic stadium.Close to constrictions we observe sets of regular fringes creating a checker board pattern.Inside the stadium conductance fluctuatio
Background Structuring data analysis projects, that is, defining the layout of files and folders needed to analyze data using existing tools and novel code, largely follows personal preferences.Open Science calls for more accessible, transparent and understandable research.We believe that Open Science principles can be applied to the way data analy
Ski mountaineering is a rapidly growing winter sport that involves alternately climbing and descending slopes and various racing formats that differ in length and total vertical gain, as well as their distribution of downhill and uphill sections.In recent years, both participation in and media coverage of this sport have increased dramatically, con
