Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method for traffic flow control considering a bus stop in a connected environment, comprising: determining an influence region of the bus stop; dividing the influence region of the bus stop into influence subregions; collecting vehicle information of each of the influence subregions at time t; comparing lane changing pressures of different influence subregions of the bus stop; determining a predicted count of lane changing vehicles of each of the influence subregions based on lane changing pressure differences; and selecting optimal lane changing vehicles to complete lane changing. A vehicle density distribution in the influence region of the bus stop can be dynamically regulated through vehicle information interaction in the connected environment, thereby making the spatial distribution of the traffic flow more balanced, saving vehicle traveling time, and improving the operation efficiency of the traffic flow.

Abstract: In certain embodiments, a probe scans a surface to produce a first scan. The first scan is used to estimate a vertical offset for scanning the surface to produce a second scan. In certain embodiments, an AFM device engages a probe to a surface using a piezo voltage. The probe scans the surface to produce a first scan. The first scan is used to estimate a vertical offset such that the probe uses the piezo voltage to engage the surface for a second scan at a different vertical position.

Abstract: A topographic profile of a structure is generated using atomic force microscopy. The structure is scanned such that an area of interest of the structure is scanned at a higher resolution than portions of the structure outside of the area of interest. An profile of the structure is then generated based on the scan. To correct skew and tilt of the profile, a first feature of the profile is aligned with a first axis of a coordinate system. The profile is then manipulated to align a second feature of the profile with a second axis of the coordinate system.
