Comparison of Methods for Defining Geographical Connectivity for Variables of Trip Generation Models
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The four-step procedure for travel demand modeling is ubiquitously used in the United States and elsewhere due to institutional and financial requirements. Trip generation analysis, which is the first step, is based on ...
Assessment of Methodological Alternatives for Modeling the Spatiotemporal Crossing Compliance of Pedestrians at Signalized Midblock Crosswalks
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: At the midblock crosswalks with either Pedestrian Hybrid Beacons (PHBs) or Traffic Control Signals (TCSs), pedestrians’ crossing compliance can be considered in terms of the space (crossing location with respect to stripes) ...
Identification of Influencing Factors of Graffiti Occurrence at Nevada State Highway Bridges and Soundwalls
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Modeling Signalized-Intersection Safety with Corner Clearance
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Signalized intersections next to each other on the same arterial share some unobservable information, such as traffic flow and roadway characteristics. This study investigated the impact of access management techniques on ...
Modeling the Deterioration of Inductive Loops
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Inductive loop detectors have been widely used in transportation system, particularly to monitor the performance of highway systems such as traffic flow, speed, and vehicle classification. Accurate data are dependent on ...
Microscale Emission Models Incorporating Acceleration and Deceleration
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Even though the MOBILE5 model has been widely used in air-quality analysis, it cannot be used in the evaluation of transportation improvements that result in a reduction of vehicle acceleration or deceleration. In this ...
Modeling Dynamics of Vehicle-Based Performance Measures of High-Occupancy Vehicle and General-Purpose Traffic Systems
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This study aimed at modeling dynamics of traffic systems with integrated and cointegrated stochastic processes using multiple time series of traffic flows generated by general purpose (GP) and high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) ...
Estimating Highway Capacity Considering Two-Regime Models
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Capacity can be derived by fitting a relationship between the three fundamental traffic variables: flow, speed, and density. The study uses a dual-regime model with the consideration of all three variables. Different forms ...
Modeling Vehicle Emissions in Hot-Stabilized Conditions Using a Simultaneous Equations Model
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The purpose of this study is to incorporate the correlation between different types of emissions into microscale vehicle emissions models. Simultaneous equations models were calibrated for two vehicle categories classified ...
