Study on the Day-Based Work Zone Scheduling Problem in Urban Road Networks Based on the Day-to-Day Traffic Assignment Model
Many work zones exist in the urban road network and have a great negative impact on city traffic. Finding the optimal work zone schedule can minimize the negative impact of work zones on traffic. This … [Read more...] about Study on the Day-Based Work Zone Scheduling Problem in Urban Road Networks Based on the Day-to-Day Traffic Assignment Model
Model and Simulation of the Heterogeneous Traffic Flow of the Urban Signalized Intersection With an Island Work Zone
Work zones exist widely in cities of many countries and have a significant negative impact on city traffic. The majority of the existing studies only focused on freeway work zones, while the work … [Read more...] about Model and Simulation of the Heterogeneous Traffic Flow of the Urban Signalized Intersection With an Island Work Zone
Predicting Traffic Dynamics with Driver Response Model for Proactive Variable Speed Limit Control Algorithm
Variable Speed Limit (VSL) control contributes to potential crash risk reduction by suggesting a suitable dynamic speed limit to achieve more stable and uniform traffic flow. In recent studies, … [Read more...] about Predicting Traffic Dynamics with Driver Response Model for Proactive Variable Speed Limit Control Algorithm
Traffic Flow Modeling of Diverse Work Zone Activities
What effect does work activity type have on traffic conditions in a work zone? This question has still not been answered satisfactorily in practice. Without knowing the true effect a work activity has … [Read more...] about Traffic Flow Modeling of Diverse Work Zone Activities
Surrogate Safety Assessment of Work Zone Rear-End Collisions in a Connected Vehicle Environment: Agent-Based Modeling Framework
This paper presents an agent-based modeling and simulation (ABMS) framework to evaluate the safety performance impacts of connected vehicle (CV) technologies in a work zone setting. This research is … [Read more...] about Surrogate Safety Assessment of Work Zone Rear-End Collisions in a Connected Vehicle Environment: Agent-Based Modeling Framework
