Book excerpt: The author is no stranger to tackling mysteries. He is internationally known as a highly competent investigator of the paranormal and a trustworthy chronicler of such in ten books. The New York Times exclaimed that his best-selling book, The Andreasson Affair, "if true, must rank with the great classics of scientific revelation." Air Force chief UFO scientific consultant, Dr. J. Allen Hynek wrote that his UFO investigations are "meticulous" and "far exceed" that of the government. Dr. Kenneth Ring, father of Near Death Experience [NDE] research wrote that Fowler's researched book on Near Death and UFO experiences "may well have deciphered the ultimate nature and meaning" of these baffling phenomena. In SynchroFile, Fowler applies the same kind of meticulous research into the supernatural-like synchronistic experiences that permeate his life. This book compiles the results of his research into Jungian psychology, the New Physics and his study of a ten-year diary of personal and family experiences of amazing coincidences and paranormal experiences. His research leads to the incredulous conclusion that time is an illusion and that reports of synchronicity, ghosts, out of the body experiences, near death experiences, UFOs, precognition, telepathy, and other extrasensory experiences are all individual expressions of one intelligent-like meta-phenomenon.
Download or read book Implementing Virtual Design and Construction using BIM written by Lennart Andersson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-14 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Implementing Virtual Design and Construction using BIM outlines the team structure, software and production ecosystem needed for an effective Virtual Design and Construction (VDC) process through current real world case studies of projects both in development and under construction. It provides the reader with a better understanding of the successful implementation of VDC and Building Information Modeling (BIM), and the benefits to the project team throughout the design and construction process. For readers already familiar with VDC, the book will provide invaluable examples of best practices and real world solutions. Richly illustrated in color with actual VDC documentation, visualizations, and statistics, the reader is shown the real processes undertaken and outputs generated when working on high profile building information models. Online animations, interviews with practitioners, and downloadable templates, forms and files make this an interactive and highly engaging way to learn a crucial set of skills. While keeping up with current industry practice is a minimum requirement, this book goes further by helping you prepare for the next level of virtual design and construction. This is essential reading for project managers, construction managers, architects, design managers, and anybody with a role in BIM or virtual construction.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This examination of a case of alien abduction “will captivate, bother, intrigue, and even frighten as one . . . contemplates its implications” (Dr. J. Allen Hynek, founder, Center for UFO Studies (CUFOS) Reviews). The Andreasson Affair is more than just a classic example of a close encounter. It is—to use the jargon of ufologists—a case of such “high strangeness” that even the most open-minded investigators were at first inclined to dismiss it out of hand. Yet it has become probably the best documented case of its kind to date, the subject of an intensive 12-month investigation conducted for the Center for UFO Studies (CUFOS) that involved, among other things, the recording of large quantities of testimony given under hypnosis, extensive lie detector testing of witnesses, detailed analysis of corroborative circumstantial evidence, exhaustive comparison with other such accounts, and much more. The Andreasson Affair includes: The most detailed description of any UFO abduction experience. Betty’s precise drawings of her experience. A supporting foreword to the book by astronomer Dr. J. Allen Hynek. Verification of all events associated with Betty’s experience. This new edition contains a new afterword for a new generation “Something extraordinary happened to Betty Andreasson. Maybe she encountered non-human visitors or maybe something even more strange. Whatever the origin of her experience, her immensely powerful story awed me. Its rich and provocative imagery will remain with me forever.” —Whitley Strieber, author of Communion

Download or read book Transit Signal Priority Project Phase II written by Hesham Rakha and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Transit Signal Priority (TSP) is recognized as an emerging technology that is capable of enhancing traditional transit services. Basic green-extension TSP was implemented on U.S. Route 1 in the Northern Virginia Area (or Washington, DC metropolitan area). This study quantifies the impact of TSP technology on transit-vehicle performance using field-collected Global Positioning System (GPS) data and evaluates the system-wide benefits of TSP operations using computer simulations to expand on the field evaluation study. The field study demonstrated that overall travel-time improvements in the order of 3% to 6% were observed for TSP-operated buses. However, the results also demonstrated that green-extension TSP can increase transit-vehicle travel times by approximately 2.5% during congested morning peak periods. In addition, the study demonstrated that TSP strategies reduce transit-vehicle intersection delay by as much as 23%. The field study demonstrated that the benefits associated with TSP were highly dependent on the roadway level of congestion and were maximized under moderate to low levels of congestion. However, the simulation results indicated that TSP did not result in statistically significant changes in auto or system-wide travel times (differences less than 1%). Furthermore, a paired t-test concluded that basic green-extension TSP did not increase side-street queue lengths. An increase in the traffic demand along Route 1 resulted in increased system-wide detriments; however, these detriments were minimal (less than 1.37%). The study demonstrated that an increase in side-street demand did not result in any statistically significant system-wide detriments. Increasing the frequency of transit vehicles resulted in additional benefits to transit vehicles (savings in transit vehicle travel times by up to 3.42%), but no system-wide benefits were observed. Finally, TSP operations at near-side bus stops (within the detection zone) resulted in increased delays in the range of 2.85%, while TSP operations at mid-block and far-side bus stops resulted in network-wide savings in delay in the range of 1.62%. Consequently, we recommend not implementing TSP in the vicinity of near-side stops that are located within the TSP detection zone. The simulation results indicated that a TSP system generally benefits transit vehicles, but does not guarantee system-wide benefits. In this study, a maximum transit vehicle travel-time savings of 3% to 6% was observed with the provision of green-extension TSP from both the field and simulation evaluation studies. However, the green-extension TSP operation did not benefit nor damage the non-transit vehicles in most cases. Also, it should be noted that the results of the study may be specific to Route 1 corridor because of the unique characteristics of the study corridor, the specific traffic demand, and TSP logic implemented. Finally, the study recommends the calibration of current TSP settings to improve the effectiveness of TSP operation. Also, different transit priority strategies or a combination of other TSP strategies should be investigated to increase the benefits of TSP operations. A conditional TSP system that only provides priority to transit vehicles behind schedule and an intelligent transit monitoring system are also recommended to improve the TSP system on the Route 1 corridor.
