Abstract

This course presents an overview of the requirements and safe work practices for the use of engineered ventilation controls (EVCs) at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL). EVCs addressed in this manual include fume hoods, local exhaust ventilation (LEV) systems other than fume hoods, portable and in-place high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filtration systems. Requirements from LANL Procedure P101-16, Industrial Ventilation (non-HVACR) that address EVC certification and use, along with responsibilities of workers who use EVCs and the responsible line managers (RLMs) of such workers, are also presented. Per 101-16, 6.1, workers who use, maintain, or certify (i.e., inspect and test) fume hoods, or Persons in Charge (PICs) who oversee others in those tasks, must complete this course.

Large language models for transportation research: Methodologies, state of the art, and future opportunities

The rapid rise of large language models (LLMs) is transforming transportation research, with significant advancements emerging between 2023 and 2025, a period marked by the inception and swift growth of adopting and adapting LLMs for various transportation applications. Despite these significant advancements, however, a systematic review and synthesis of the existing literature remains lacking. This paper aims to fill this gap by providing a comprehensive review of the methodologies and applications of LLMs in transportation. We explore key applications, including autonomous driving, travel behavior prediction, and general transportation-related queries, alongside LLM methodologies such as zero- or few-shot learning, prompt engineering, and fine-tuning. From the review, critical research gaps are identified. From the methodological perspective, many of the research limitations can be addressed by integrating LLMs with existing tools and refining LLM architectures. From the application perspective, research opportunities for LLMs to address various transportation challenges are also explored. By synthesizing these findings, this review not only presents the state-of-the-art LLM adoption and adaptation in transportation, but also proposes future research directions as well as insights and recommendations for policymakers and practitioners, paving the way for greater LLM-driven research innovations in transportation in the future.
