Abstract Shadow extraction and elimination is essential for intelligent transportation systems (ITS) in vehicle tracking application. The shadow is the source of error for vehicle detection, which causes misclassification of vehicles and a high false alarm rate in the research of vehicle counting, vehicle detection, vehicle tracking, and classification. Most of the existing research is on shadow extraction of moving vehicles in high intensity and on standard datasets, but the process of extracting shadows from moving vehicles in low light of real scenes is difficult. The real scenes of vehicles dataset are generated by self on the Vadodara–Mumbai highway during periods… More >

Abstract This work proposes a numerical investigation on the effects of damage on the structural response of Reinforced Concrete (RC) bridge structures commonly adopted in highway and railway networks. An effective three-dimensional FE-based numerical model is developed to analyze the bridge’s structural response under several damage scenarios, including the effects of moving vehicle loads. In particular, the longitudinal and transversal beams are modeled through solid finite elements, while horizontal slabs are made of shell elements. Damage phenomena are also incorporated in the numerical model according to a smeared approach consistent with Continuum Damage Mechanics (CDM). In such a context, the proposed… More >

Abstract Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are created and affect our daily lives. You can find applications in various fields such as health, accident, life, manufacturing, production management, network management and many other fields. WSN now connects to the Internet of Things, connects the sensor to the Internet, and then uses it for collaboration and collaboration. However, when WSN is part of the internet we need to be able to study and analyze related terms. In this article, we’re going to look at different ways to get WSN online and identify the challenges that address in future as well. More >
