Book Description
Modern roundabouts have emerged as an increasingly popular design option for intersections throughout the United States (US), including California. Many states and cities are considering roundabouts as a viable alternative to other Traffic Control Devices (TCDs) and complex freeway interchanges to improve safety and operational efficiency at intersections. This research project analyzed the traffic feasibility design study and relevant field data of the roundabout intersection at Sheldon and Waterman Road in Elk Grove, California to specifically address the performance issues related to roundabout design and operation. The results in this study provides an overall picture of the operational performance of Sheldon and Waterman Road roundabout. It was found that there were statistically significant reductions in delay, queuing and proportion stopped at the study site after the installation of a modern roundabout. However, most of the measures of effectiveness are worse than those predicted in traffic feasibility design study.

Disproof of Bell's Theorem
Author: Joy Christian
Publisher: Universal-Publishers
ISBN: 1612337244
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 351
Book Description
A remarkable concept known as "entanglement" in quantum physics requires an incredibly bizarre link between subatomic particles. When one such particle is observed, quantum entanglement demands the rest of them to be affected instantaneously, even if they are universes apart. Einstein called this "spooky actions at a distance," and argued that such bizarre predictions of quantum theory show that it is an incomplete theory of nature. In 1964, however, John Bell proposed a theorem which seemed to prove that such spooky actions at a distance are inevitable for any physical theory, not just quantum theory. Since then many experiments have confirmed these long-distance correlations. But now, in this groundbreaking collection of papers, the author exposes a fatal flaw in the logic and mathematics of Bell's theorem, thus undermining its main conclusion, and proves that---as suspected by Einstein all along---there are no spooky actions at a distance in nature. The observed long-distance correlations among subatomic particles are dictated by a garden-variety "common cause," encoded within the topological structure of our ordinary physical space itself.
