Abstract: This paper uses a genetic algorithm to systematically examine the underlying characteristics of the optimal bus transit route network design problem (BTRNDP) with variable transit demand. A multiobjective nonlinear mixed ...

Abstract: This paper uses a simulated annealing algorithm to solve the optimal bus transit route network design problem (BTRNDP) at the distribution node level. A multiobjective nonlinear mixed integer model is formulated for the ...

Abstract: Many data-collection methods are available from simple manual methods to advanced automatic image processing techniques. For many practical purposes video recording has become a widely used tool. Though this method is ...

Abstract: The mechanistic-empirical study of pavement performance requires that immediate pavement responses due to tire loading be mechanistically computed for pavement structures, and the long-term pavement performance be related ...

Abstract: This paper considers the problem of estimating road user costs (RUCs), such as travel time and delays, for roadway construction projects under time and data limitations. RUCs measure the mobility impacts of construction ...
