Fault-Tolerant Variable Speed Limit Control for Freeway Work Zone
Freeway work zone can easily lead to traffic congestion which has detrimental effects on travel time and safety. By using the detected traffic states near work zone area, variable speed limit (VSL) … [Read more...] about Fault-Tolerant Variable Speed Limit Control for Freeway Work Zone
An Empirical Analysis on Temporal Stability of Factors in Work Zone Crashes in Florida: A Random Parameters Heterogeneity-in-Means Approach
Work-zone crashes in Florida have increased recently, particularly from 2012 to 2017. This study investigates on the factors leading to work-zone crashes in Florida in two distinct economic time … [Read more...] about An Empirical Analysis on Temporal Stability of Factors in Work Zone Crashes in Florida: A Random Parameters Heterogeneity-in-Means Approach
A Macroscopic Traffic Flow Model for the Highway Work Zone
Work Zones widely exist on highways, causing high traffic delay and many accidents. The majority of the existing studies focus on the characteristics of work zones, such as traffic capacity, speed, … [Read more...] about A Macroscopic Traffic Flow Model for the Highway Work Zone
Modeling the Heterogeneous Traffic Flow of the Urban Signalized Intersection with the Straddling Work Zone
Work zones widely exist on urban roads in many countries and have a serious impact on traffic. Few studies have focused on modeling the traffic flow of the work zone on the urban arterials, especially … [Read more...] about Modeling the Heterogeneous Traffic Flow of the Urban Signalized Intersection with the Straddling Work Zone
