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 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 ...
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 ...
Innovative countermeasures for red light running prevention at signalized intersections: A driving simulator study
(
Elsevier
, 2020 , Article)
The change interval, which includes the yellow and all-red times, plays a crucial role in the safety and operation of signalized intersections. During this interval, drivers not only need to decide to stop or go but also ...
Exploring the impacts of COVID-19 on travel behavior and mode preferences
(
ElsevierLtd.
, 2020 , Article)
Various measures were recommended or imposed by the governments to control the spread of COVID-19. Travel behaviors are significantly influenced due to such measures. However, people have various travel needs ranging from ...
Analysis of the Trajectories of Left-turning Vehicles at Signalized Intersections
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
Internationally, an annual number of more than a million fatalities are caused by road traffic crashes, with particularly signalized intersections being crash prone locations within the highway system. An accumulation of ...
Role of transport during outbreak of infectious diseases: Evidence from the past
(
MDPI
, 2020 , Article Review)
The outbreak of infectious diseases affects people's lifestyles significantly, as they undertake fewer outdoor activities as a protective measure and to follow government orders of restricted movements. This paper reviewed ...
Nature-inspired cellular structure design for electric vehicle battery compartment: Application to crashworthiness
(
MDPI AG
, 2020 , Article)
This paper discusses the potential of using lightweight nature-inspired cellular structured designs as energy absorbers in crashworthiness applications for electric vehicles (EV). As EVs are becoming popular with their ...
Study of mild steel sandwich structure energy absorption performance subjected to localized impulsive loading
(
MDPI AG
, 2020 , Article)
Extensive research focus had been given to sacrificial sandwich panels to mitigate the effects of blast loads. This is due to their ability to distribute the load and absorb a significant portion of the blast energy. This ...
Queue Discharge at Freeway On-Ramps Using Coordinated Operation of a Ramp Meter and an Upstream Traffic Signal
(
Elsevier
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
Ramp metering is an effective way of maintaining optimum traffic conditions and mitigating congestion on freeways. Several strategies for ramp metering exist in the literature. They are typically based on the freeway traffic ...
