Emergency Vehicle Routing in Urban Road Networks with Multistakeholder Cooperation
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The lack of multistakeholder cooperation is one of the main challenges faced by emergency medical services (EMS). Especially in the ambulance routing process, inactive traffic operators fail to provide coordination to ...
Improved Pedestrian Sight-Distance Needs at Railroad-Highway Grade Crossings
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents an improved model for pedestrian crossing time that is used to establish preliminary guidelines for lateral clearance needs on railroad-highway grade crossings. The improved model includes new elements ...
Personalized Modeling of Travel Behaviors and Traffic Dynamics
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Emerging mobile Internet applications have become valuable data sources for fine-grained transportation analysis, which allows the introduction of the concept of Personalization in both microscopic and macroscopic modeling ...
Cloud-Based Platoon Predictive Cruise Control Considering Fuel-Efficient and Platoon Stability
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This work investigates commercial vehicle platoon predictive cruise control for highways. We propose a cloud-based platoon predictive cruise control method (CPPCC). A two-layered control architecture of the CPPCC is proposed ...
Estimation of Entry Capacity for Single-Lane Modern Roundabouts: Case Study in Queensland, Australia
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Single-lane modern roundabouts are one of the most important intersection types in the suburbs of Australia. Therefore, it is important to estimate their entry capacities. In this case study, an analytical model based on ...
Stop-Line Setback at a Signalized Roundabout: A Novel Concept for Traffic Operations
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper proposes a novel concept, stop-line setback (SLSB), aimed at enhancing the capacity of signalized roundabouts and solving the problem of unbalanced flow patterns. This method is believed to avoid wasting acceptable ...
Evaluation of Roundabout Capacity Models: An Empirical Case Study

Abstract: This paper proposes a novel concept, stop-line setback (SLSB), aimed at enhancing the capacity of signalized roundabouts and solving the problem of unbalanced flow patterns. This method is believed to avoid wasting acceptable ...
Novel Crash Surrogate Measure for Freeways
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: In this paper, a disturbance-based methodology was proposed to represent the safety level of a car-following scenario. According to the probabilistic causal model, the following vehicles always take evasive actions to avoid ...
