Variable Speed Limit Control Design for Relieving Congestion Caused by Active Bottlenecks
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Variable speed limit (VSL) can be used on freeways to manage traffic flow with the goal of improving capacity. To achieve this objective, it is necessary that both speed and density dynamics be represented accurately. In ...
Optimal Ramp Metering Control for Weaving Segments Considering Dynamic Weaving Capacity Estimation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: On freeway corridors, traffic flow is limited by active bottlenecks. Weaving maneuvers (i.e., intensive lane changes) are a major cause of bottlenecks during high-demand periods. To relieve bottleneck severity, ramp metering ...
Modeling Driver Compliance to VSL and Quantifying Impacts of Compliance Levels and Control Strategy on Mobility and Safety
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Variable speed limits (VSL) aim to improve freeway mobility and safety by influencing collective behaviors of drivers. Thus, VSL benefits should be positively correlated with the VSL compliance level (CL). Surprisingly, a ...
Analyzing Service Quality of Pedestrian Sidewalks under Mixed Traffic Condition Considering Latent Variables
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Development of a sustainable urban transportation system undoubtedly depends to a large extent on the road users' perception being inclined toward the consideration of walking as the main mode of transportation for ...
