Mitigation of Traffic Congestion Using Ramp Metering on Doha Expressway
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Ramp metering is the most effective and widely implemented strategy for improving traffic flow on freeways by restricting the number of vehicles entering a freeway using ramp meters. A ramp meter is a traffic signal ...
The significance of industry experience in civil engineering education
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2013 , Conference Paper)
Students pursuing their civil engineering degree usually learn the theory part in class but may struggle relating theory to practice if the instructor have no industry experience. Engineering graduates can benefit more ...
3D characterization of sand particle-to-particle contact and morphology
(
Elsevier Ltd
