Effect of U-turns and heavy vehicles on the saturation flow rates of left-turn lanes at signalized intersections
(
MDPI
, 2020 , Article)
© 2020 by the authors. The Saturation Flow Rate (SFR) is a primary measure that can be used when estimating intersection capacity. Further, the efficiency of signal control parameters also depends on the accuracy of assumed ...
Modeling the Impact of Downstream Conditions on Discharging Behavior of Vehicles at Signalized Intersections Using Micro-Simulation
(
Springer
, 2020 , Article)
© 2020, King Fahd University of Petroleum & Minerals. In areas where traffic demand is high and intersections are closely spaced, the drivers’ desire for quick discharge is demotivated by negative downstream conditions, ...
Modeling Trajectories and Trajectory Variation of Turning Vehicles at Signalized Intersections
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers
, 2020 , Article)
© 2013 IEEE. Information on the trajectories of turning vehicles at signalized intersections can be used in numerous applications, such as movement planning of autonomous vehicles, realistic representation of surrounding ...

International Association of Traffic and Safety Sciences (IATSS)
, 2019 , Report)
ESRA (E-Survey of Road users’ Attitudes) is a joint initiative of road safety institutes, research centres, public services, and private sponsors from all over the world. The aim is to collect and analyse comparable data ...
A vision-based zebra crossing detection method for people with visual impairments
(
IEEE
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
Safe navigation for visually impaired is challenging without assistive technology. This paper proposes a pedestrian crossing detection approach to help visually impaired people. We introduce the use of multiple convolutional ...
Modeling Traffic Flows on Urban Arterials Considering the Downstream Influence
(
SAGE Publications
, 2020 , Article)
© National Academy of Sciences: Transportation Research Board 2020. Arterials are important transportation facilities, undertaking the two functions of mobility and accessibility. In the urban area, signalized intersections ...

& 29th of May 2019, under the Special Interest Group ...
Modeling the Impact of Downstream Conditions on Discharging Behavior of Vehicles at Signalized Intersections Using Micro-Simulation
(
Springer
, 2020 , Article)
In areas where traffic demand is high and intersections are closely spaced, the drivers’ desire for quick discharge is demotivated by negative downstream conditions, such as long queues and poorly coordinated traffic ...
Extraction of Vehicle Turning Trajectories at Signalized Intersections Using Convolutional Neural Networks
(
SpringerLink
, 2020 , Article)
This paper aims at developing a convolutional neural network (CNN)-based tool that can automatically detect the left-turning vehicles (right-hand traffic rule) at signalized intersections and extract their trajectories ...
Enhancing Pedestrian Safety through the Development of Advanced Operational Strategies for Crosswalks in Residential Areas
(
Qatar University Press
, 2021 , Poster)
Pedestrians are the most vulnerable group in the traffic. Every year approximately 40,000 pedestrians are killed in the world due to road traffic crashes. In the state of Qatar, the situations are even worse with around ...
