Identifying High-Risk Intersections for Walking and Bicycling Using Multiple Data Sources in the City of San Diego
(Hindawi, 2019-06-16)
Over the last decade, demand for active transportation modes such as walking and bicycling has increased. While it is desirable to provide high levels of safety for these eco-friendly modes of travel, unfortunately, the ...
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 ...
Feasibility Study for Using Piezoelectric-Based Weigh-In-Motion (WIM) System on Public Roadway
(MDPI, 2019-07-31)
Weigh-in-Motion system has been the primary selection of U.S. government agencies as the weighing enforcement for decades to protect the road pavement. In recent years, the number of trucks has increased by about 40% and ...
Factors Influencing Learner Permit Duration
(MDPI, 2016-12-22)
An increasing number of countries are requiring an extended learner permit prior to independent driving. The question of when drivers begin the learner permit period, and how long they hold the permit before advancing to ...
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 ...
Teen Driving Risk and Prevention: Naturalistic Driving Research Contributions and Challenges
(MDPI, 2017-12-18)
Naturalistic driving (ND) methods may be particularly useful for research on young driver crash risk. Novices are not safe drivers initially, but tend to improve rapidly, although the pace of learning is highly variable. ...
Implementation Phase Safety System for Minimising Construction Project Waste
(MDPI, 2019-01-18)
The construction sector is a key component of a nation’s gross domestic product, but its inherent nature results in potentially dangerous conditions that affect the safety of all workers on construction projects ...
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 ...
