Abstract: This research is motivated by the increased awareness for terrorism related research in the post-

Abstract: At the planning stages of a highway development process a number of candidate highway alignments are explored. While computerized highway optimization models can seek optimized horizontal and vertical alignments by minimizing ...

Abstract: Highway maintainability is a significant issue, which should be considered in the planning stages of a highway development process. A number of infrastructure models such as highway maintenance management systems, bridge ...

Abstract: Accessibility, proximity, and land-use changes over time are important considerations in highway route selection. Highway users while benefiting from living closer to highways also pay a price for living close to them due ...

Abstract: The increasing commuting population often fuels the need for new highways. As the demand for new highways increases, many low-income neighborhoods are often considered for placement of new highways. While this issue has ...

Abstract: This paper presents a methodology for critical gap analysis at signalized intersections with unprotected opposing left-turn movements. Highway capacity manual (HCM) methodology for estimating potential capacity uses base ...

Abstract: Many traffic simulation software tools have emerged over the last decade and are widely used for analyzing capacity, delay, and level of service at intersections, ramps, and along arterial/freeway segments. Although these ...

Abstract: The location of rail transit lines and stations is a challenging problem because the number of possible alternatives is astronomical, the number of requirements and constraints is very large, and the evaluation of each ...
