Abstract: A laboratory study of force‐cognitive robot excavation is described, with particular emphasis on the use of object‐oriented programming (OOP) for rapid prototyping of the computational processes. Unmodeled forces develop ...

Abstract: Traffic monitoring sites are installed in highways to collect speed, volume, and classification data to support various planning and intelligent transportation system applications. There is minimal research that addresses ...

Abstract: Video detection has become an increasingly popular technology for vehicle detection at signalized intersections. Among the potential disadvantages of this technology is the tendency of video detectors to activate early at ...

Abstract: Recently, high-resolution data has emerged as an economical means of obtaining detailed information about signal operations. This has enabled the development of metrics to examine progression, such as cyclic flow profiles ...

Abstract: The

Abstract: Traditional pedestrian level of service measures at signalized intersections are based on pedestrian space and pedestrian delay. However, these measures may not adequately reflect the negative impact of right-turning traffic ...

Abstract: The presence of construction work zones on interstates impacts the traveling conditions encountered by motorists. These changes not only affect the traveling public, but also the workers that perform the construction. The ...

Abstract: Real-time performance measures are important for agencies to maintain their roadways during the winter season. However, infrastructure can be expensive to deploy and maintain and may be sparse in rural areas, while speed ...

Abstract: The consumer electronics industry has made extensive use of the Bluetooth wireless protocol in many portable devices. A substantial number of these Bluetooth devices broadcast a unique identifier in the form of the media ...
