Abstract: The two-dimensional equations of magnetoelastodynamics are considered as a symmetric hyperbolic system of linear first-order partial-differential equations in three independent variables. The ...

Abstract: The problem of an infinitely long elastic rod subject to a moving concentrated twisting moment with position determined by the stationary process X(t) is analyzed. Information concerning the ...

Abstract: The equations governing the dynamic deformation of an elastic solid are considered as a symmetric hyperbolic system of linear first-order partial-differential equations. The characteristic properties ...

Abstract: This paper presents a method to evaluate the operational effects of managed lane policies—vehicle eligibility, access control, pricing, and the number of managed lanes—that form a policy combination set. Two macroscopic ...

Abstract: Linear and nonlinear multivariate statistical analyses are applied to determine how the types of accidents that occur on heavily used freeways in Southern California are related both to the flow of traffic and to weather ...

Abstract: Path flow estimator (PFE) is a one-stage network observer proposed in the transportation literature to estimate path flows and path travel times from traffic counts in a transportation network. The estimated path flows can ...

Abstract: This research involves the development of a tool that can be used to assess the changes in traffic safety tendencies that result from changes in traffic flow. The tool uses data from single inductive loop detectors, ...

Abstract: The feasibility of the development of high flow urban arterials by means of an integration of flyover technology with signal optimization is examined. Simulation results, using a modified version of the TRANSYT model, are ...

Abstract: This study addresses safety issues associated with the operation of freeway high‐occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes that are not separated by physical barriers from adjacent, general‐purpose traffic lanes. Accident frequencies ...

Abstract: Results of an application of the case study approach to the evaluation of alternate TSM strategies is presented. The procedure is useful in the classification of potential sites relative to their expected performance ...
