A Novel Crowdsourcing Model for Micro-Mobility Ride-Sharing Systems
(MDPI, 2021-07-06)
Substantial research is required to ensure that micro-mobility ride sharing provides a better fulfilment of user needs. This study proposes a novel crowdsourcing model for the ride-sharing system where light vehicles such ...
INTEGRATION Large-Scale Modeling Framework of Direct Cellular Vehicle-to-All (C-V2X) Applications
(MDPI, 2021-03-18)
The transportation system has evolved into a complex cyber-physical system with the introduction of wireless communication and the emergence of connected travelers and connected automated vehicles. Such applications create ...
A Novel Decentralized Game-Theoretic Adaptive Traffic Signal Controller: Large-Scale Testing
(MDPI, 2019-05-17)
This paper presents a novel de-centralized flexible phasing scheme, cycle-free, adaptive traffic signal controller using a Nash bargaining game-theoretic framework. The Nash bargaining algorithm optimizes the traffic signal ...
Environmental Impact of Freight Signal Priority with Connected Trucks
(MDPI, 2019-12-01)
Traffic signal priority is an operational technique employed for the smooth progression of a specific type of vehicle at signalized intersections. Transit signal priority is the most common type of traffic signal priority, ...
Battery Electric Vehicle Eco-Cooperative Adaptive Cruise Control in the Vicinity of Signalized Intersections
(MDPI, 2020-05-12)
This study develops a connected eco-driving controller for battery electric vehicles (BEVs), the BEV Eco-Cooperative Adaptive Cruise Control at Intersections (Eco-CACC-I). The developed controller can assist BEVs while ...
Adaptive Traffic Signal Control: Game-Theoretic Decentralized vs. Centralized Perimeter Control
(MDPI, 2021-01-03)
This paper compares the operation of a decentralized Nash bargaining traffic signal controller (DNB) to the operation of state-of-the-art adaptive and gating traffic signal control. Perimeter control (gating), based on the ...
Estimation of Traffic Stream Density Using Connected Vehicle Data: Linear and Nonlinear Filtering Approaches
(MDPI, 2020-07-22)
The paper presents a nonlinear filtering approach to estimate the traffic stream density on signalized approaches based solely on connected vehicle (CV) data. Specifically, a particle filter (PF) is developed to produce ...
Empirical Study of Effect of Dynamic Travel Time Information on Driver Route Choice Behavior
(MDPI, 2020-06-08)
The objective of this paper is to study the effect of travel time information on day-to-day driver route choice behavior. A real-world experimental study is designed to have participants repeatedly choose between two ...
Use of Life Cycle Cost Analysis and Multiple Criteria Decision Aid Tools for Designing Road Vertical Profiles
(MDPI, 2019-12-12)
The current design practice for the vertical profile of roads in rolling and mountainous terrains is to follow the existing grades in order to minimize earthwork costs. This means that the only criterion considered during ...
Impact of Intersection Control on Battery Electric Vehicle Energy Consumption
(MDPI, 2020-06-19)
Battery electric vehicle (BEV) sales have significantly increased in recent years. They have different energy consumption patterns compared to the fuel consumption patterns of internal combustion engine vehicles (ICEVs). ...
