Quantifying the impact of COVID–19 preventive measures on traffic in the State of Qatar
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
Ever since the beginning of 2020, the mobility of people and goods all over the world has been extremely limited as a result of movement restrictions imposed by local authorities as part of several other efforts to stop ...
Pedestrians’ Microscopic Walking Dynamics in Single-File Movement: The Influence of Gender
(
MDPI
, 2022 , Article)
Demographics of individuals could largely influence their behaviors and interactions with surrounding pedestrians. This study investigates the influence of pedestrians’ gender on microscopic walking dynamics of single-file ...
Prediction of Traffic Conflicts at Signalized Intersections using SSAM
(
Elsevier
, 2018 , Article)
The use of microsimulation to model the vehicles movement and pedestrian movements within a traffic network is widely undertaken to test and evaluate operational performance of a traffic network under different traffic ...
A systematic review on sustainability assessment of electric vehicles: Knowledge gaps and future perspectives
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
Electric mobility is emerging all around the world to minimize environmental impacts, reduce dependency on petroleum, and diversify energy sources for transportation. Any emerging technology comes with uncertainties in ...
Exploring home-to-school trip mode choices in Kandy, Sri Lanka
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
Schools are major trip generators in urban areas and school trips may largely contribute to the congestion, particularly during morning peak hours. This study investigates the home-to-school trip mode choices in Kandy city, ...
Road Crossing at Unmarked Mid-Block Locations: Exploring Pedestrians’ Perception and Behavior
(
Springer
, 2022 , Article)
Violations, risky behaviors and perceptions may largely contribute to crashes involving pedestrians, particularly at unmarked mid-block locations. The likelihood and severity of crashes at mid-block locations are higher ...
Relating reactive and proactive aggression to trait driving anger in young and adult males: A pilot study using explicit and implicit measures
(
MDPI
, 2021 , Article)
Driving anger and aggressive driving are main contributors to crashes, especially among young males. Trait driving anger is context-specific and unique from other forms of anger. It is necessary to understand the mechanisms ...
Investigating the impact of a novel active gap metering signalization strategy on driver behavior at highway merging sections
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2021 , Article)
A safe headway to the lead vehicle is important to reduce conflicts with merging vehicles from highway on-ramps. Previous research has outlined the advantage of gap metering strategies to yield sufficient space to merging ...
Pedestrian flow characteristics through different angled bends: Exploring the spatial variation of velocity
(
Public Library of Science (PLOS)
, 2022 , Article)
Common geometrical layouts could potentially be bottlenecks, particularly during emergency and high density situations. When pedestrians are interacting with such complex geometrical settings, the congestion effect might ...
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 ...
