Książka Smart Roadways: Innovations in Geometric Design for Sustainable Urban Mobility bada transformacyjną rolę geometrycznego projektowania jezdni w rozwiązywaniu miejskich wyzwań i wymagań inteligentnych miast. Książka, kt rej autorami są dr Akshay Gulghane, dr Santosh Jaju i dr Nilesh Nirwan z G H Raisoni College of Engineering w Nagpur, integruje podstawowe zasady z innowacjami, takimi jak IoT, sztuczna inteligencja i zr wnoważone praktyki. Kluczowe tematy obejmują podstawy wyr wnania, odleglości wzroku i projektowania przekroj w poprzecznych; integrację inteligentnych technologii do monitorowania ruchu i konserwacji predykcyjnej; oraz zr wnoważone praktyki, takie jak zielone korytarze, przyjazne dla środowiska materialy i projekty wrażliwe na wodę. Książka kladzie nacisk na multimodalne korytarze dla r żnych użytkownik w i zaawansowane środki bezpieczeństwa, w tym modele przewidywania kolizji i odporne projekty. Wyr żniające się studium przypadku projektu Eastern Link Road w Wielkiej Brytanii ilustruje praktyczne zastosowania, od zaawansowanego modelowania geometrycznego po projektowanie skrzyżowań i ulepszenia środowiskowe. Zas b ten pozwala planistom i inżynierom tworzyc wydajne, integracyjne i zr wnoważone drogi dla przyszlych potrzeb miejskich.

The book Smart Roadways: Innovations in Geometric Design for Sustainable Urban Mobility explores the transformative role of geometric roadway design in addressing urban challenges and the demands of smart cities. Authored by Dr. Akshay Gulghane, Dr. Santosh Jaju, and Dr. Nilesh Nirwan, from G H Raisoni College of Engineering, Nagpur integrates foundational principles with innovations like IoT, AI and sustainable practices. Key themes include: the fundamentals of alignment, sight distances, and cross-sectional design; smart technology integration for traffic monitoring and predictive maintenance; and sustainable practices like green corridors, eco-friendly materials, and water-sensitive designs. The book emphasizes multimodal corridors for diverse users and advanced safety measures, including crash prediction models and resilient designs. A standout case study of the Eastern Link Road project in the UK illustrates practical applications, from advanced geometric modeling to intersection design and environmental enhancements. This resource equips planners and engineers to craft efficient, inclusive, and sustainable roadways for future urban needs.

Healthcare service sector plays important role in economic growth of a nation. Healthcare services are provided by various types of hospitals such as government hospitals, private hospitals, and community / trust hospitals in urban area. In rural area the healthcare services are provided by primary healthcare centres. Due to increase in competition between hospitals a pressure is increased on administrators of hospitals to provide better services to customer. To make improvement in services the administrator of hospitals need to know the area where improvement is needed. Hence administrators of hospitals needed a reliable instrument to measure the service quality of hospitals. The objectives of this book is 1) to provide a model for assessing service quality of healthcare sector 2) to determine the common minimum service items able to measure the service quality of healthcare sector 3) to use neural network for assessing service quality model for healthcare sector. After exploratory literature review it is found that majority of researcher used customers perception minus expectation gap score for assessing service quality of healthcare sector.

This book examines state of supply chain management (SCM) & supply chain performance measurement (SCPM) practices in Indian textile industry. Book presents study that has very comprehensive review of literature in field of SCM & SCPM in global context as well in Indian context. Book presents extracts of gap identified in existing practices of SCPM. Research framework is developed. Framework is built based on gaps and in consultation with experts of textile industry, academicians from textile institutes, consultants and practitioners. Hierarchical framework for decision making is developed using structured Delphi Method and implemented in 4 case textile industries. Book explains the implementation methodology and its rationale. Framework implemented is used to examine the crucial performance measures and their criticality level towards overall supply chain performance measurement of textile industry using analytical hierarchy process (AHP) as multi criteria decision making (MCDM) technique. Book also argues on theoretical and practical implication of the study. Also presents the managerial implication and future scope for interested academician and researchers.
