Evaluation of Transit Signal Priority Implementation for Bus Transit along a Major Arterial Using Microsimulation
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Transit Signal Priority (TSP) provides preferential treatment for public transit vehicles at signalized intersections when implemented. TSP is usually provided by interrupting the typical signal timings and extending the ...
Investigation of Weather Impacts on Pedestrian Volumes
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
This study investigates the impacts of temporal and weather characteristics on pedestrian volumes in a hot climate condition. A major neighborhood located in an urban area in Doha, Qatar was chosen as a case study site. ...
Reveal the hidden layer via entity embedding in traffic prediction
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
The neural network-based models have been widely used in traffic prediction. They have improved accuracy and efficiency in traffic flow, speed, passenger flow, and delay. Many variables are considered to predict traffic ...
Using pavements to generate electricity
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
As part of developing a safe, efficient, and sustainable transportation infrastructure, health monitoring of pavements and bridges, as well as the monitoring of real-time roadway conditions for safety, have become increasingly ...
Literature Review of Advancements in Adaptive Ramp Metering
(
Elsevier
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Over a period spanning more than 30 years, several ramp metering algorithms have been developed to improve the operation of freeways. Many of these algorithms were deployed in several regions of the world, and field ...
Time Delay and Cost Overrun in Qatari Public Construction Projects
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
This paper investigated cost overruns and delays in Qatari public construction projects. An extensive review of regional and international publications was conducted to get a better understanding of the problem and the ...
Reconstruction of Road Defects from Dynamic Vehicle Accelerations by Using the Artificial Neural Networks
(
Springer Science and Business Media B.V.
, 2023 , Conference Paper)
Monitoring of roads is considered the first step in establishing a successful road maintenance program, which includes scheduling adequate maintenance to a certain road section at the right time. Road monitoring assesses ...
Road Profile Estimation Using Full/Quarter-Car Model with Artificial Neural Networks
(
Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH
, 2024 , Conference Paper)
The monitoring of road roughness is one of the first and most critical steps in road maintenance. Road networks need constant maintenance to function properly and avoid any hazardous accidents or blockage of the traffic ...
PREDICTING ROAD ROUGHNESS PROFILE USING DYNAMIC VEHICLE ACCELERATIONS AND ARTIFICIAL NEURAL NETWORKS
(
Society of Acoustics
, 2022 , Conference Paper)
Road roughness can cause ride discomfort and contribute to the emission of ground-borne noise and vibration. A robust monitoring regime of road roughness is essential for the efficient maintenance of a country's road ...
Comparison of SimTraffic and VISSIM Microscopic Traffic Simulation Tools in Modeling Roundabouts
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
Abstract SimTraffic and VISSIM are two microscopic traffic simulation tools that are capable of modeling arterial roads with signalized intersections and roundabouts. This study compares the performance of the two simulation ...
