Exit lane allocation with the lane-based signal optimization method at isolated intersections

Developing an Analytical Model and Simulation of The Contraflow Left-Turn Lane at Signalized Intersections

At some intersections, excessive queue lengths may spill out of the left-turn bay and block the through lanes, jeopardizing level of service for the entire intersection. One of the most effective plans recently presented by the researchers is the "Contraflow left-turn lane" (CLL) In this method, left-turn vehicles will use the nearest lane in the opposite direction in addition to the usual left...

An Integrated Optimization Model for Signal Timing Plan and Lane Allocation Design

Signal timing and lane allocation are most important settings at signalized intersections to control the operation. Efficiently operated traffic signals and reasonably designed lane markings can reduce congestion and bring about significant payoffs in time and energy benefits. The design of signal timing plan and lane allocation pattern should be complementary to each other; however, existing r...

Lane-Emden Equation: perturbation method

The perturbation method is applied to numerical solution of the Lane-Emden Equation (LEE)of arbitrary index n, and the global parameters of polytropes are found as function of polytropic index n.

A Lane Departure Warning System Based on Virtual Lane Boundary

A lane departure warning system (LDWS) should give as much warning time as possible, while triggering few, if any, false alarms. In this paper, a virtual lane boundary based LDWS (VLWM) is proposed to approach this goal. VLWM allows the driver to drift beyond the physical lane boundary by adding a virtual lane boundary. Accounting for the driving habit of the driver, lane geometry, and the loca...
