Adaptive Control Strategy of Variable Speed Limit on Freeway Segments under Fog Conditions
(ASCE, 7/22/2023 )Fog has a critical impact on traffic safety on freeways. Variable speed limit (VSL) control can effectively harmonize vehicle speed and improve safety. However, most existing weather-related VSL controllers are limited in ... -
Temperature Prediction for Expressway Pavement Icing in Winter Based on XGBoost–LSTNet Variable Weight Combination Model
(ASCE, 5/12/2023 )Ice cover on pavement may reduce the road adhesion coefficient and increase the crash risks, which might result in more traffic crashes. The primary factor utilized to assess whether the wet pavement is icy or not is the ... -
Multilane Signal-Free Intersection Cooperation Scheme for Connected and Automated Vehicles with Local Dynamic Resequencing Strategy
(ASCE, 6/24/2023 )This paper studies a new vehicle cooperation scheme for connected and automated vehicles (CAVs) at a multilane signal-free intersection. Firstly, the collision set for each vehicle is constructed, which contains all conflict ... -
Exploring Activity Patterns and Trip Purposes of Public Transport Passengers from Smart Card Data
(ASCE, 6/17/2023 )With the development of technology, there is an increasing number of automatically collected data sources applied in human mobility research. Although these data sets can record travel spatiotemporal information, the ... -
Comparative Univariate and Regression Survival Analysis of Lane-Changing Duration Characteristic for Heavy Vehicles and Passenger Cars
(ASCE, 2022/12/01)In contrast to passenger cars, the lane-changing (LC) behavior of heavy vehicles has a more profound impact on traffic flow. This paper investigates LC duration characteristics for heavy vehicles and passenger cars through ... -
Subway Station Accessibility and Its Impacts on the Spatial and Temporal Variations of Its Outbound Ridership
(ASCE, 2022/12/01)Understanding the influencing factors of subway station outbound ridership provides sights into current subway system operations and future expansion needs. The accessibility of a subway station quantifies the potential ... -
Design of Network Green Bands Considering Trams
(ASCE, 2022/12/01)The rapid growth of tram use in urban transport has been receiving attention throughout the world, but poor coordination within the traffic system hinders the full achievement of its potential. To deal with the deficiency ... -
Traffic Queue Length Estimation at Permissive Left-Turn Signalized Intersections with Probabilistic Priority
(ASCE, 2022/12/01)Probabilistic yielding behaviors are often observed at permissive left-turn signalized intersections in some countries, which tend to affect the operational performance of intersections such as queue length of left-turn ... -
Safety and Consistency Assessment of a Two-Lane Rural Highway Passing through Mountainous Terrain
(ASCE, 2022/12/01)This paper assesses the implications of vehicle-specific operating speed and crash data on the geometric design consistency evaluation of rural highways passing through mountainous terrain. The consistency was evaluated ... -
Leveraging Location-Based Data for Assessing Network-Level Traffic Impact of Lane Management: A Case Study of Alex Fraser Bridge
(ASCE, 2022/12/01)Lane management is expected to alleviate traffic congestion and improve mobility on roadways. Previous studies have mainly analyzed the impacts of lane management on the road segment rather than the road network. Because ... -
Determining Battery and Fast Charger Configurations to Maximize E-Mileage of Electric Buses under Budget
(ASCE, 2022/11/01)Battery electric buses (BEBs) are being planned in urban areas around the world to curb emission. An efficiently designed electric bus system offers the dual advantage of clean public transportation and reduced private ... -
