Integrated Model for Optimizing Orientation of Two-Runway Configurations
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents an integrated computer model (WNDROS2) for optimizing runway orientation at airports having two-runway configurations. In this model, mathematical formulation is applied to transfer circles and radial ...
Analysis and Modeling of Measured Delays at Isolated Signalized Intersections
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Vehicular delay is an excellent tool for evaluating the operation of signalized intersections. This paper presents a methodology for measuring and analyzing stopped delay as well as acceleration and deceleration delay at ...
Simulation Modeling and Variability Assessment of Delays at Traffic Signals
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents a microscopic stochastic simulation model developed to emulate the traffic movement at signalized intersections and estimate vehicular delays including the acceleration/deceleration delay. The structure ...
Accuracy of Stopped Delay Measured by Stopped-Vehicle Counts Method
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The stopped delay is a primary factor for measuring the level of service at signalized intersections, and the 1994 Highway Capacity Manual proposed a method for measuring the stopped delay in the field based on direct ...
Effect of Platoons on Permissive Left‐Turn Capacity: Pilot Study
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Existing models for estimating left turn capacity assume an average opposing flow rate throughout the cycle. While this assumption may be valid under random arrivals, it is evident that the presence of platoons results in ...
Optimization of Runway Orientation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents a computer model, named WNDROS, for optimizing the runway orientation based on given wind data and allowable crosswind component. The model is based on a mathematical formulation, which transfers circles ...
Comparative Analysis of Using AASHTO and WESDEF Approaches in Back-calculation of Pavement Layer Moduli
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents an evaluation of the falling weight deflectometer testing data using the AASHTO and WESDEF back-calculation procedures. General concepts of each procedure are highlighted, together with data utilized ...
