Annual Average Daily Traffic Prediction Model for Minor Roads at Intersections
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Annual average daily traffic (AADT) is an important element for maintenance, safety, environmental analysis, finance, engineering economics, and performance management. Most previous studies were conducted to estimate AADT ...
Modeling Pipe Break Data Using Survival Analysis with Machine Learning Imputation Methods
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The development of asset life estimation tools based on historical data is essential to the effective management of pipeline assets. One tool that may assist with asset management is survival analysis. However, left-truncated ...
Fracture-Induced Anisotropy of the Stress–Strain Response of Shale at Multiple Scales
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper investigates deformation and stiffness anisotropy induced by damage propagation in a rock brittle deformation regime. Specifically, a finite-element–based Continuum damage mechanics model is used to capture ...
Thermal-Fluid-Solid Coupling in Thermal Characteristics Analysis of Rolling Bearing System Under Oil Lubrication
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: It is necessary to use the thermal network method for thermal analysis of the bearing, but there are still some shortcomings. In this paper, a novel thermal network model of the bearing transient temperature is developed ...
Investigation of the Multiparameter Mix Proportion Design and Mechanical Properties of Polyvinyl Alcohol-Engineered Cementitious Composites
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In contrast with its strong compressive performance and durability, the low tensile strength of concrete often leads to a range of issues during long-term application, including deformation, cracking, and even fracturing ...
Vehicle Speed and Acceleration Profile Study for Metered On-Ramps in California
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Ramp metering has been proven as an effective freeway-management strategy; however, one of the critical challenges in design and operation of ramp metering is the lack of up-to-date design guidance for acceleration lanes. ...

Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Ramp metering has been proven as an effective freeway-management strategy; however, one of the critical challenges in design and operation of ramp metering is the lack of up-to-date design guidance for acceleration lanes. ...
Impact of On-Ramp Traffic Flow Arrival Profile on Queue Length at Metered On-Ramps
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: At a metered on-ramp, a vehicle queue will be formed in front of the ramp meter when on-ramp demand exceeds the ramp-metering capacity. It is therefore important to provide adequate queue storage space to prevent ramp queue ...
Traffic Volume Detection Using Infrastructure-Based LiDAR under Different Levels of Service Conditions
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Light detection and ranging (LiDAR) technology is a key component of an autonomous vehicle’s sensing system. It also has the potential to be used at the roadside as a major infrastructure-based detection for connected and ...
Effects of EVA and SAE Emulsions on Hydration and Drying Shrinkage of Calcium Sulfoaluminate Cement Pastes
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The utilization of calcium sulfoaluminate (CSA) cement, known for its rapid strength gain and low carbon footprint, has been increasingly prevalent in the field of construction. This research aims to enhance the mechanical ...
