Optimal Allocation of Lane Space and Green Splits of Isolated Signalized Intersections with Short Left-Turn Lanes
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: At an isolated signalized intersection, the capacity of the lane group with a short left-turn lane heavily depends on the short lane length and the effective green time allocated for the lane group, as does the capacity ...
Full Closure or Partial Closure? Evaluation of Construction Plans for the I-5 Closure in Downtown Sacramento
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Three alternative construction plans with full highway closures and limited capacity closures (partial closures) are evaluated for a large-scale freeway reconstruction project in the Sacramento metropolitan area. By using ...
Empirical Behavioral Study of Airport-Serving Taxi Drivers Using Automatic Vehicle Location Data
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Many taxi drivers are willing to travel to the airport empty to pick up customers despite the much longer driving distance and waiting times. The underlying assumption of such behavior is the higher profits perceived by ...
Performance Evaluation of Adaptive Ramp-Metering Algorithms Using Microscopic Traffic Simulation Model
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Adaptive ramp metering has undergone significant theoretical developments in recent years. However, the applicability and potential effectiveness of such algorithms depend on a number of complex factors that are best ...
Revealing Urban Community Structures by Fusing Multisource Transportation Data
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Revealing urban community structures of a city is of great importance for investigating urban development and sprawl behind the movement dynamics. However, most studies focus on delineating urban community structure and ...
