Modeling the Impact of Work-Zone Traffic Flows upon Concrete Construction: A High Level Architecture Based Simulation Framework
Congestion can restrict access to construction activities both on and close to a freeway, reducing construction efficiency, especially by delaying the delivery of materials. Although previous studies … [Read more...] about Modeling the Impact of Work-Zone Traffic Flows upon Concrete Construction: A High Level Architecture Based Simulation Framework
Decision Tree–Based Model for Estimation of Work Zone Capacity
The ability to accurately estimate work zone capacity is imperative, as it is a key input to estimate queue length and traffic delay at work zone. This paper thus aims to develop a decision tree-based … [Read more...] about Decision Tree–Based Model for Estimation of Work Zone Capacity
An Improved Cellular Automata Model for Heterogeneous Work Zone Traffic
This paper aims to develop an improved cellular automata (ICA) model for simulating heterogeneous traffic in work zones. The proposed ICA model includes the forwarding rules to update longitudinal … [Read more...] about An Improved Cellular Automata Model for Heterogeneous Work Zone Traffic
Evaluation and Implementation of Traffic Simulation Models for Work Zones
As the National Highway System reaches the end of its serviceable life, transportation agencies increasingly need to focus on the preservation, rehabilitation, and maintenance of these roads. In light … [Read more...] about Evaluation and Implementation of Traffic Simulation Models for Work Zones
Multivariate Regression for Estimating Driving Behavior Parameters in Work Zone Simulation to Replicate Field Capacities
Traffic simulation tools are being increasingly adopted by DOTs for various traffic analysis studies, including assessing work zone traffic impacts. This is due, in part, to their ability to model … [Read more...] about Multivariate Regression for Estimating Driving Behavior Parameters in Work Zone Simulation to Replicate Field Capacities
