Incident Detection Algorithm using Wavelet Energy Representation of Traffic Patterns
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002)Automatic freeway incident detection is an important component of advanced transportation management systems (ATMS) that provides information for emergency relief and traffic control and management purposes. Earlier ... -
Dynamic Traffic Assignment with Rolling Horizon Implementation
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002)This paper discusses an analytical dynamic traffic assignment (DTA) model with the extended capability of performing rolling horizon implementation. This model is formulated as a link-based variational inequality and can ... -
Combining Use of Rough Set and Artificial Neural Networks in Doweled-Pavement-Performance Modeling—A Hybrid Approach
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002)This paper explores the potential applications of rough set theory and neural networks in concrete-faulting-performance modeling. The rough set can be used to reduce the dimension of the original pavement database in terms ... -
Optimal Configuration of Airport Passenger Buildings for Travelers
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002)This paper uses a novel analysis to define the optimal configuration of airport passenger buildings for travelers. The approach explicitly recognizes two significant practical facts omitted in previous work—(1) the importance ... -
Revealed Preference Analysis of Commercial Vehicle Choice Process
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002)The paper discusses modeling the commercial vehicle choice process as part of a discrete-continuous choice formulation, with the shipment size as the continuous variable, and the type of vehicle as the discrete choice, in ... -
Development of Transportation Engineering Research, Education, and Practice in a Changing Civil Engineering World
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002)Transportation has been one of the essential areas within civil engineering since its early days. In commemoration of the 150th anniversary of ASCE, this paper presents a review of developments in research, education, and ... -
New Algorithm for a Multiclass Dynamic Traffic Assignment Model
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002)In this paper, three traveler classes are classified according to different assumptions of travelers’ route choice behavior, including fixed route, stochastic dynamic user optimum, and dynamic user optimum. Note that ... -
Collapsible Soil Engineering in Highway Infrastructure Development
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002)Rapid growth in arid and semiarid regions has brought increased focus on volume change characteristics of moisture sensitive unsaturated soils. One such soil type of concern is collapsible soil. There are numerous reports ... -
Airport Passenger Buildings: Efficiency through Shared Use of Facilities
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002)This paper provides a comprehensive guide to the design of shared facilities. Shared facilities serve many users (aircraft, airlines, or types of services) in several functions (arrivals, departures, international and ... -
Parallax Error in Video-Image Systems
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002)Parallax error is a distance-related measurement error when the measurement has to rely on field of view, such as video-image systems. This paper provides a detailed investigation of the geometric elements associated with ... -
Factors Related to More Severe Older Driver Traffic Crash Injuries
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002)The population of the U.S. is aging, and the number of older persons licensed to drive keeps increasing. With the aging population and increase in the number of older licensed drivers, addressing safety issues related to ... -
Three-Dimensional Transportation Analysis: Planning and Design
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002)This paper presents a state-of-the-art review of recent developments in three-dimensional (3D) analysis for transportation planning and highway design. As background, the concept of dimension is briefly discussed and ... -
Jointly Estimated Cross-Sectional Mode Choice Models: Specification and Forecast Performance
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002)This paper investigates a number of issues associated with jointly estimating disaggregate logit mode choice models for two periods using data collected at two points in time in independent cross-sectional travel surveys ... -
Box-Beam Bursting Energy Absorbing Terminal
