Analysis of Stopping Sight Distance (SSD) Parameters: A Review Study
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2022 , Article)
Stopping sight distance (SSD) is one of the important elements in geometric highway design, which relies on the two key parameters, i.e., vehicle braking characteristics and drivers' reaction time. Previous studies have ...
Rebound effects undermine carbon footprint reduction potential of autonomous electric vehicles
(
Springer Nature
, 2023 , Article)
Autonomous vehicles offer greater passenger convenience and improved fuel efficiency. However, they are likely to increase road transport activity and life cycle greenhouse emissions, due to several rebound effects. In ...
Lane-based analysis of the saturation flow rate considering traffic composition
(
Informa UK Limited - Taylor & Francis
, 2023 , Article)
Saturation flow rate (SFR) is an essential metric for estimating the capacities of signalized intersections. Many factors, including traffic composition, configuration and geometry of the intersection, and driver behavior, ...
Safety Analysis of Merging Vehicles Based on the Speed Difference between on-Ramp and Following Mainstream Vehicles Using NGSIM Data
(
Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI)
, 2022 , Article)
Highway merging points are critical elements due to the interactions between merging vehicles and following vehicles on the outermost lane of the highway stream. Such interactions could have significant implications for ...
Structural equation modeling of public transport use with COVID-19 precautions: An extension of the norm activation model
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
This study aims to identify the travelers' attitudes and preferences towards the use of public transport during COVID-19 through the Norm-Activation Model (NAM). A questionnaire survey was designed to assess the traveler's ...
The appraisal of roadway environment and infrastructure by drivers with autism: A qualitative study
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2021 , Article)
People with an autism spectrum disorder (ASD) might experience difficulties while driving, for instance, related to hazard perception. These difficulties may be related to cognitive issues (internal) such as attention-shifting, ...
Investigating the impact of dynamic merge control strategies on driving behavior on rural and urban expressways – A driving simulator study
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2019 , Article)
Harsh decelerations and abrupt lane changes of drivers on the outer expressway lane in response to merging platoon vehicles from on-ramps increase the crash- and congestion risk on expressways. Several merge control ...
Improved traffic safety at work zones through animation-based variable message signs
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2021 , Article)
Work zones are established to provide a safe environment for all road users and road workers. However, based on the statistics, they can be considered as crash prone zones due to changes in the road alignments and the ...
Evacuation under flooded conditions: Experimental investigation of the influence of water depth on walking behaviors
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
Flooding can be considered as the most frequent type of natural disaster, and it is an unavoidable phenomenon in many parts of the world. Ensuring the safety of people during such natural disasters is extremely important. ...
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 ...
