Analysis of a Flexible Transit Network in a Radial Street Pattern by Hongguo Shi, Mingyao Gao

“…This paper presents a reformulation of the flexible transit model developed by Nourbakhsh and Ouyang (2012) to adapt it to many low demand cities in the world, especially those characterized by radial street patterns. Unlike traditional ones, buses of the proposed transit network are allowed to traverse in a predetermined service area and their precise trajectories hinge on the exact locations of passengers. …”

A Multiquark Approach to Excited Hadrons and Regge Trajectories by S. S. Afonin

“…We show that our approach leads to an effective mass counting scheme for meson spectrum and results in the linear Regge and radial Regge trajectories by construction. An experimental observation of these trajectories might thus serve as evidence not for string but for multiquark structure of highly excited hadrons.…”

Development and Research of Ion Optics Digital Simulation System for EI Source by Li-na YANG, Xing-chuang XIONG, Zi-long LIU, Xiang FANG

“…The time to pass through the cylindrical lens is shorter than that of the sheet lens under the same ion mass-charge ratio. The radial energy distributions of ions at the outlet of the two ions optical systems are similar, and the axial energy distribution at the outlet of the sheet lens is more concentrated with higher consistency.…”
