The Influence of Structural Setting and Lithology on Landslide Type Pattern in Qazvin-Rasht Freeway

We describe the algorithms we have developed to automatically generate street networks and building plots in the automatic procedural creation of a realistic city. Our system first sites the important regions of a city, such as the commercial center, historical center, and residential areas. Then, a network of freeway and main roads are built. Finally, a network of streets are built throughout ...

Intelligent speed adaptation (ISA) has been shown to be an effective measure for road safety improvement. Recently, there has been an increasing interest in using ISA systems, particularly with the dynamic speed control, to manage congestion and reduce energy/emissions. The effectiveness of the dynamic ISA system relies on its speed control strategies. This paper presents the development of a p...

1 a typical simple one-side weaving section, as shown in Figure 1, the geometric variables of the weaving section are the length of the weaving section, L, and the number of lanes within the weaving section, N. Length of the weaving section is measured from a point where the entrance gore is 2 feet wide to a point where the exit gore is 12 feet wide. Vehicular flow is categorized into four gene...

Abstract This research quantifies the relationship between the cost of earliness and lateness by empirically observing commute trips from two different sources. The first empirical analysis uses individual level travel survey data from six metropolitan regions while the second analysis uses traffic data from the Twin Cities freeway network. The analysis conducted in this research provides a met...

Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) are cost-effective measures to manage congestion due to increasing demand by improving the efficiency of existing transportation infrastructure. Traffic detection and surveillance play a pivotal role in deploying these technologies in the field. This dissertation continues the work that has been done in recent years in relation to the use of wireless mag...
