This book was released on 2013-03-21 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited book focuses on recent developments in Dynamic Network Modeling, including aspects of route guidance and traffic control as they relate to transportation systems and other complex infrastructure networks. Dynamic Network Modeling is generally understood to be the mathematical modeling of time-varying vehicular flows on networks in a fashion that is consistent with established traffic flow theory and travel demand theory. Dynamic Network Modeling as a field has grown over the last thirty years, with contributions from various scholars all over the field. The basic problem which many scholars in this area have focused on is related to the analysis and prediction of traffic flows satisfying notions of equilibrium when flows are changing over time. In addition, recent research has also focused on integrating dynamic equilibrium with traffic control and other mechanism designs such as congestion pricing and network design. Recently, advances in sensor deployment, availability of GPS-enabled vehicular data and social media data have rapidly contributed to better understanding and estimating the traffic network states and have contributed to new research problems which advance previous models in dynamic modeling. A recent National Science Foundation workshop on “Dynamic Route Guidance and Traffic Control” was organized in June 2010 at Rutgers University by Prof. Kaan Ozbay, Prof. Satish Ukkusuri , Prof. Hani Nassif, and Professor Pushkin Kachroo. This workshop brought together experts in this area from universities, industry and federal/state agencies to present recent findings in this area. Various topics were presented at the workshop including dynamic traffic assignment, traffic flow modeling, network control, complex systems, mobile sensor deployment, intelligent traffic systems and data collection issues. This book is motivated by the research presented at this workshop and the discussions that followed.

Download or read book Improved Work Zone Design Guidelines and Enhanced Model of Travel Delays in Work Zones written by Helmut T. Zwahlen and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The project focuses on two major issues - the improvement of current work zone design practices and an analysis of vehicle interarrival time (IAT) and speed distributions for the development of a digital computer simulation model for queues and travel delays in work zones. Important considerations in the development of work zone design guidelines include guidance, delineation, and the safety of workers and drivers. A nationwide survey of current work zone best practices was conducted. Based on the review of the existing ODOT guidelines, superior practices available in other states, relevant research, and professional judgment of personnel involved in work zone activities, a set of guidelines for work zone design are proposed. It is anticipated that these research findings will result in the better design of work zones which will minimize traffic delays and improve safety. In the second part of the project trailers, each using two Wavetronix microwave radar units in side-fire mode, were developed to nonintrusively measure traffic. The traffic was measured at six work zones sites with different types of lane configurations at different freeways in Ohio. Traffic on the road was also independently measured using video and radar, and the results compared to records from the trailers to verify that the trailers were measuring the traffic with reasonable accuracy. IAT data of successive vehicles in freeflowing traffic ahead of work zones were analyzed and IAT distributions were generated as a function of the traffic volume for each lane and relationships between traffic volumes and cumulative IAT distributions were established allowing a direct conversion from hourly traffic counts to corresponding cumulative IAT distributions. This conversion method produces fairly accurate cumulative IAT distributions for selected hourly traffic volumes. It was also found that the same cumulative IAT distribution can be used to model the free-flowing traffic at other freeway locations in Ohio, which means that the IAT distributions are portable and scalable and a microscopic digital computer simulation model based on queueing theory may be developed to investigate traffic delays in work zones.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an increasingly globalised world, despite reductions in costs and time, transportation has become even more important as a facilitator of economic and human interaction; this is reflected in technical advances in transportation systems, increasing interest in how transportation interacts with society and the need to provide novel approaches to understanding its impacts. This has become particularly acute with the impact that Covid-19 has had on transportation across the world, at local, national and international levels. Encyclopedia of Transportation, Seven Volume Set - containing almost 600 articles - brings a cross-cutting and integrated approach to all aspects of transportation from a variety of interdisciplinary fields including engineering, operations research, economics, geography and sociology in order to understand the changes taking place. Emphasising the interaction between these different aspects of research, it offers new solutions to modern-day problems related to transportation. Each of its nine sections is based around familiar themes, but brings together the views of experts from different disciplinary perspectives. Each section is edited by a subject expert who has commissioned articles from a range of authors representing different disciplines, different parts of the world and different social perspectives. The nine sections are structured around the following themes: Transport Modes; Freight Transport and Logistics; Transport Safety and Security; Transport Economics; Traffic Management; Transport Modelling and Data Management; Transport Policy and Planning; Transport Psychology; Sustainability and Health Issues in Transportation. Some articles provide a technical introduction to a topic whilst others provide a bridge between topics or a more future-oriented view of new research areas or challenges. The end result is a reference work that offers researchers and practitioners new approaches, new ways of thinking and novel solutions to problems. All-encompassing and expertly authored, this outstanding reference work will be essential reading for all students and researchers interested in transportation and its global impact in what is a very uncertain world. Provides a forward looking and integrated approach to transportation Updated with future technological impacts, such as self-driving vehicles, cyber-physical systems and big data analytics Includes comprehensive coverage Presents a worldwide approach, including sets of comparative studies and applications
