Abstract: In this study, 20 drivers, who maintain a safe distance at all speeds, are monitored to help determine the principal reason for trip delay. The aim was to develop a driver-assisted technology device or devices to enhance ...

Abstract: System engineering is used to analyze traffic delay on a test track as a dynamic process using microscale time data. Each driver is required to start from rest and stop at a specific location in the shortest time possible. ...

Abstract: The use of probability models derived from a long‐term (30 yr) color record forms an approach of forecasting raw water color and assigning an alum dose for treatment of surface waters. Three probabilistic models are developed ...

Abstract: This study was motivated by the work of researchers who conducted field experiments on roadways with no bottlenecks. The ring roads are circular roadways where passing was restricted. All drivers who took part in these ...

Abstract: This paper describes a study whose primary purpose is to better understand the relationship between freeway traffic flow and speed. Incidents of recurrent and nonrecurrent congestion were encountered at six radar collection ...

Abstract: A detection scheme that uses classical and spatial statistics has been developed to identify roadways with the most severe safety needs. It is based on the null hypothesis that all roadways have the same crash risk, that ...

Abstract: A traffic volume which can trigger a breakdown event at one point in time may not trigger it at another time. The critical question is why a roadway under the same loading is stable in one instance and unstable in another. ...
