MOVES Based Studies Sample Clauses

MOVES Based Studies. In the study by Xxxxxx et al., “Accounting for acceleration and deceleration emissions in intersection dispersion modeling using MOVES and CAL3QHC” (2013), it was found that because MOVES can be used to provide detailed emission rates for vehicles in acceleration and deceleration modes, it can significantly affect the location and concentration of CO near an intersection. The study used the MOVES Link Drive Schedule to determine modal emission rates. The CO acceleration emission factors were found to be significantly higher than cruise emission factors, indicating that acceleration emissions contribute more to total CO concentrations than cruise or idle emissions. The study also examined the impact of the number of sub-links used to characterize vehicle modal activity around an intersection. The number of sub-links used in modeling can substantially change the predicted concentrations in CAL3QHC. Figure 3.1, from the study, shows that increasing the number of acceleration sub-links increases the modeled peak CO concentrations. Indeed, the study found that increasing from 1 to 4 acceleration links increased modeled CO concentrations by 38%. The increase in links also moves the highest modeled concentration away from the beginning of the acceleration location. These findings may have important implications for both the location and magnitude of the maximum modeled CO concentrations at intersections. However, the study did not compare results with monitored data, so the effects on model accuracy are unknown.

  • Project/Milestones Taxpayer develops and manufactures various products for use in the defense, aerospace and security industries. In consideration for the Credit, Taxpayer agrees to expand its operations at various locations throughout California, including El Segundo, Redondo Beach, Palmdale, Sunnyvale, Woodland Hills, Azusa and Rancho Xxxxxxxx. As part of its expansion, Taxpayer will invest in manufacturing equipment, computer and electrical equipment and make tenant improvements to the above facilities. Additionally, Taxpayer will hire full-time employees as part of its expansion (collectively, the “Project”). Further, Taxpayer agrees to satisfy the milestones as described in Exhibit “A” (“Milestones”) and must maintain Milestones for a minimum of three (3) taxable years thereafter. In the event Taxpayer employs more than the number of Full- time employees, determined on an annual full-time equivalent basis, than required in Exhibit A, for purposes of satisfying the “Minimum Annual Salary of California Full-time Employees Hired” and the “Cumulative Average Annual Salary of California Full-time Employees Hired,” Taxpayer may use the salaries of any of the Full-time employees hired and retained within the required time period. For purposes of calculating the “Minimum Annual Salary of California Full-time Employees Hired” and the “Cumulative Average Annual Salary of California Full-time Employees Hired,” the salary of any full-time employee that is not employed by the taxpayer for the entire taxable year shall be annualized. In addition, Xxxxxxxx agrees that any full-time employee hired after the effective date of this agreement that is a “qualified full-time employee” (as defined in RTC section 23636) shall be excluded from the calculation of the net increase of full-time employees required by this Agreement if Taxpayer claims the credit allowed by RTC section 23636.

  • SCHEDULE AND MILESTONES The planned major milestones for the activities for this Annex defined in the "Responsibilities" Article are as follows:

  • Targets and Milestones You may choose to develop specific additional targets and milestones which assess your performance in ITT over time – particularly if ITT trainees make up a significant proportion of your overall student body. Alternatively, you may have targets and milestones in your existing 2012-13 access agreement which you now also wish to apply to undergraduate and/or postgraduate ITT trainees. These targets may be statistical – based on how representative your entrants are and/or your retention performance – and might include annual or interim milestones to help you monitor whether you are making progress. You may wish to include criteria around the numbers of trainees in receipt of a full or partial maintenance grant, as financial data will need to be collected to determine bursary support and the data will also be accessible through the Student Loans Company for HEBSS subscribers. You may also wish to consider the TDA guidance at Annex C which gives information on specific groups that are Annex A underrepresented in the teaching profession. In this section, please state whether you intend to develop additional targets and milestones, or the extent to which you intend to use targets and milestones in your existing agreement which you now wish to extend to apply to undergraduate and/or postgraduate ITT trainees. Where you have new or amended milestones and targets, you should set these out in your Excel template (Annex B) at Table 6. The University of Cambridge does not intend to adjust its current targets or to develop additional targets and milestones for its ITT provision. The number of students on the PGCE programme amount to less than 4% of the total population of Cambridge students with which the Office for Fair Access is concerned, and all of those students have already experienced a first taste of higher education. It would therefore be disproportionate to set specific aims and objectives for this group.
