Interactions between autonomous vehicles and pedestrians at unsignalized mid-block crosswalks considering occlusions by opposing vehicles
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2021 , Article)
Visibility can be identified as one of the critical determinants for the safety performance of autonomous vehicles (AVs) on unsignalized mid-block crosswalks (UMC), which may be significantly influenced by build-up environment ...
Fuel consumption at signalized intersections: Investigating the impact of different signal indication settings
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2023 , Article)
The fuel consumption of vehicles depends on various factors including vehicle design, driving style, traffic management, and road design. Many manufacturers have been developing efficient and smart vehicles, which contributes ...
A novel agent-based framework for evaluating pedestrian safety at unsignalized mid-block crosswalks
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2021 , Article)
A critical safety problem in road networks is the conflicts on unsignalized crosswalks. Thus, a proactive approach to assess pedestrian safety performance is required. Simulating the microscopic road user behavior in a ...
Geosynthetic-reinforced soils above voids: Observation and prediction of soil arching
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
The assumption with the biggest impact on the design of geosynthetic-reinforced soils above voids is the presence and degree of soil arching, which affects the predicted applied stress on the geosynthetic. A series of ...

(
MDPI AG
, 2021 , Article)
A new, fast, elegant, and simple stochastic optimization search method is proposed, which exhibits surprisingly good performance and robustness considering its simplicity. We name the algorithm pure random orthogonal search ...
Energy harvesting from railway slab-tracks with continuous slabs
(
SAGE Publications Inc.
, 2023 , Article)
This paper contributes to the literature and development of knowledge in the topic of energy harvesting by presenting the modelling and calculations of energy from vibration of railway tracks due to moving trains on ...

Biolubricant Synthesis by Additization and Chemical Modification from Lipid-Rich Brackish Coelastrella sp. Using a Biorefinery Approach
(
American Chemical Society
, 2023 , Article)
With a sizable market share and widespread use in automotive and industrial applications, biolubricants are produced from the oils of terrestrial plants that have undergone chemical modification or additive addition. ...
Optimization of Viscoelastic Metamaterials for Vibration Attenuation Properties
(
World Scientific
, 2020 , Article)
Metamaterials (MMs) are composites that are artificially engineered to have unconventional mechanical properties that stem from their microstructural geometry rather than from their chemical composition. Several studies ...
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 ...
