Fast Lanes by Design: Quantifying RFID Electronic Tolling Impacts on Plaza Halt Times in Highway
Abstract: Abstract—Rapid urban growth and the steady rise in the number of vehicles have made congestion at highway toll plazas a persistent and costly problem. Long queues at toll booths not only waste travelers’ time but also increase fuel consumption, air pollution, and overall operating costs of the transport system. Traditional manual toll collection methods contribute significantly to these delays, as vehicles are required to stop for cash or card-based transactions. …

Planning, Development and Management of Sustainable Cities: A Review
Abstract: Cities are the most affected indicators of human activities on the surface of the earth. These human-dominated things, i.e., cities destroy natural habitats, streamline species composition, upset hydrological systems, and adjust energy flow and nutrient cycling. Today, these significant impacts of human activities, initiated from population increase, rapid urbanization, high private motor vehicle dependency, deregulated industrialization and mass livestock production, are increasing exponentially and causing great deal of environmental, social, …

Development of Plant Based Iron Rich Food Products and Their Efficacy Evaluation Using Food Based Approach
Abstract: Iron deficiency anemia (IDA) is the most wide spread nutritional problem and affects over 2 billion people. The main reason for IDA has been determined to be inadequate intake of iron and low bioavailability (1-6%) of dietary iron from plant foods. Food based approaches to addressing IDA in India are being promoted, but information on to what extent food combination would improve the bioavailability of iron is fragmentary. Vitamin C …
