Splitter blades located between stator blades in a single-stage axial compressor were proposed and investigated in this work to find their effects on aerodynamic performance and operating stability. Aerodynamic performance of the compressor was evaluated using three-dimensional Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations using the k-e turbulence model with a scalable wall function. The numerical results for the typical performance parameters without stator splitter blades were validated in comparison with experimental data. The numerical results of a parametric study using four geometric parameters (chord length, coverage angle, height and position) of the stator splitter blades showed that the operational stability of the single-stage axial compressor enhances remarkably using the stator splitter blades. The splitters were effective in suppressing flow separation in the stator domain of the compressor at near-stall condition which affects considerably the aerodynamic performance of the compressor.

This paper introduces a semi-automated system that facilitates emergency response vehicle (ERV) movement through a transportation link by providing instructions to downstream non-ERVs. The proposed system adapts to information from non-ERVs that are nearby and downstream of the ERV. As the ERV passes stopped non-ERVs, new non-ERVs are considered. The proposed system sequentially executes integer linear programs (ILPs) on transportation link segments with information transferred between optimizations to ensure ERV movement continuity. This paper extends a previously developed mathematical program that was limited to a single short segment. The new approach limits runtime overhead without sacrificing effectiveness and is more suitable to dynamic systems. It also accommodates partial market penetration of connected vehicles using a heuristic reservation approach, making the proposed system beneficial in the short-term future. The proposed system can also assign the ERV to a specific lateral position at the end of the link, a useful capability when next entering an intersection. Experiments were conducted to develop recommendations to reduce computation times without compromising efficiency. When compared with the current practice of moving to the nearest edge, the system reduces ERV travel time an average of 3.26 s per 0.1 mi and decreases vehicle interactions.

Current data networks are highly homogeneous because of management, economic, and interoperability reasons. This technological homogeneity introduces shared risks, where correlated failures may entirely disrupt the network operation and impair multiple nodes. In this paper, we tackle the problem of improving the resilience of homogeneous networks, which are affected by correlated node failures, through optimal multiculture network design. Correlated failures regarded here are modeled by SRNG events. We propose three sequential optimization problems for maximizing the network resilience by selecting as different node technologies, which do not share risks, and placing such nodes in a given topology. Results show that in the 75% of real-world network topologies analyzed here, our optimal multiculture design yields networks whose probability that a pair of nodes, chosen at random, are connected is 1, i.e., its ATTR metric is 1. To do so, our method efficiently trades off the network heterogeneity, the number of nodes per technology, and their clustered location in the network. In the remaining 25% of the topologies, whose average node degree was less than 2, such probability was at least 0.7867. This means that both multiculture design and topology connectivity are necessary to achieve network resilience.
