Large-scale traffic signal control and multimodal network design

Dimitrios Tsitsokas

Traffic congestion constitutes one of the most frequent, yet challenging, problems to address in the urban space. Caused by the concentration of population, whose mobility needs surpass the serving capacity of urban networks, congestion cannot be resolved ...

An optimization framework for exclusive bus lane allocation in large networks with dynamic congestion

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Dimitrios Tsitsokas, Anastasios Kouvelas

Road space distribution among multiple modes of transport in urban networks has attracted the interest of several researchers and policy planners. Traditionally, these problems are solved by ignoring operational and dynamic characteristics of multi-modal c ...

Two-layer hierarchical control for large-scale urban traffic networks

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Anastasios Kouvelas

Many efforts have been carried out to optimize the traffic signal settings in cities. Nevertheless, state-of-the-art and -practice strategies cannot deal efficiently with oversaturated conditions (i.e. queue spillbacks and partial gridlocks), as they are e ...

Towards Automatic Train Operation for long distance services: State-of-the art and challenges

Daniel Emery

The Automatic Train Operation of a metro line is not so difficult to implement: almost no junction or crossing between lines, rolling stock homogeneity, double track operation, relatively low speed, very simple station track layout, mostly rubber-mounted, ...

Monitoring of strain profile variations in the RC slab of a short span railway bridge

Eugen Brühwiler, Vasileios Grigoriou

A novel monitoring scheme oriented towards the structural examination of reinforced concrete slabs subject to railway traffic action is presented. Monitoring is based on the measurement of the mean axial strain profile variation in the cross-section of the ...

An Algorithm Architecture Co-Design for CMOS Compressive High Dynamic Range Imaging

Pierre Vandergheynst, William Guicquéro, Antoine Dupret

Standard image sensors feature dynamic range about 60 to 70 dB while the light flux of natural scenes may be over 120 dB. Most imagers dedicated to address such dynamic ranges, need specific, and large pixels. However, canonical imagers can be used for hig ...

Analysis of Ballast Transport in the Event of Overflowing of the Drainage System on High Speed Lines

Giovanni De Cesare, Tamara Ghilardi, Mona Jafarnejad Chaghooshi, Elena Battisacco

The transport of ballast caused by the overflowing of longitudinal drains is a prime example of the interactions between the railway track and its environment. In such conditions, water flowing from the platform, along with debris, may drag the ballast off ...
