Abstract: Public transportation plays an important role in urban sustainability. To increase public transit usage, it is essential to understand the underlying reasons that discourage people from using transit through the perspectives ...

Abstract: Mobility as a Service (MaaS) is a concept that provides individualized choices for multimodal shared trips and has been extended with growing applications in large cities and metropolitan areas around the world. However, ...

Abstract: This paper develops a diagnostic-oriented and evaluation-driven framework that can bridge the gap between transit performance evaluation and improvement prioritization at the route level, where the roles of government ...

Abstract: A new approach is presented to design robust controllers for an experimental flexible beam with noncolocated sensors-actuator. The objective is to position the free end of the beam in the ...

Abstract: This paper presents the analysis results of driver responses during a yellow phase, based on field observations of 1,123 drivers collected with a specially designed system from six signalized intersections of high crash ...

Abstract: Network capacity is one of the most important ways to measure the transportation system’s capacity to accommodate traffic demand. This paper presents an approach to estimate the capacity of urban transportation network ...

Abstract: A newly proposed unconventional intersection design, exit lanes for left-turn (EFL) intersections, has been demonstrated to be very promising for capacity improvement. However, the difference in saturation flow rates at ...

Abstract: Urban rail transit transfer stations are key facilities for gathering and switching passenger flow. High passenger demand coupled with nonrecurrent events (e.g., train delays) may cause extreme passenger flow and ...
