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 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 ...
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 ...
Improved Traffic Flow Efficiency during Yellow Interval at Signalized Intersections Using a Smart Countdown System
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers
, 2022 , Article)
Inadequate and unnecessary stopping at signalized intersections reduces operational efficiency. The study aims at investigating the effect of a smart advanced warning system on driving behavior and the efficiency of ...
Safety and security perceptions in informal transport: the case of Tunisia
(
Taylor & Francis
, 2022 , Article)
This study aims to evaluate the perception of safety and security in informal transport in Tunisia. This research employs a questionnaire-based survey of passengers and drivers of informal transport in Tunisia. Interviews ...
Using driving simulator to study the effect of crash fact signs on speeding behaviour along freeways
(
Taylor & Francis
, 2022 , Article)
A driving simulator study was utilized to evaluate a potential countermeasure for speeding behaviour in order to reduce speed spillover. The behaviour of 56 subjects was observed. Participants drove a freeway for 5300 ...
Concentration of pb, cu, zn and cd in the roadside soil of doha: Effect of traffic volume and season
(
HARD
, 2021 , Article)
The concentration of copper (Cu), lead (Pb), zinc (Zn) and cadmium (Cd) in the roadside soil of Doha was evaluated. Three different roads were selected for the study namely, Mesrif street, Salwa road and Cornish street ...
Introducing a multi-variate classification method: Risky driving acceptance among different heterogeneous driver sub-cultures
(
Elsevier
, 2020 , Article)
Introduction: Heterogeneous driving populations with many different origins are likely to have various sub-cultures that comprise of drivers with shared driver characteristics, most likely with dissimilar traffic safety ...
Effect of ADHD traits in young drivers on self-reported deviant driving behaviours: An exploratory study in the Arab gulf region
(
Elsevier
, 2020 , Article)
IntroductionAttention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) can be defined in two key traits (inattention and hyperactivity-impulsivity), which can effect day-to-day capabilities such as driving performance. MethodsIn this ...
Investigating the Efficiency and Safety of Signalized Intersections Under Mixed Flow Conditions of Autonomous and Human-Driven Vehicles
(
Springer
, 2020 , Article)
© 2020, King Fahd University of Petroleum & Minerals. Field experiments of autonomous driving systems have already been started in several countries around the world. However, investigations on the performance of signalized ...
