Multivariate time series forecasting for freeway networks

Semin Kwak

This dissertation introduces traffic forecasting methods for different network configurations and data availability.Chapter 2 focuses on single freeway cases.Although its topology is simple, the non-linearity of traffic features makes this prediction still ...

Estimation of Arterial Travel Time from Automatic Number Plate Recognition Data

Evanthia Kazagli

Automatic vehicle identification (AVI) systems are increasingly used for the collection of traffic data in urban and freeway networks. Several methods have been proposed for the estimation of travel times from AVI data, mainly for freeways. The problem of ...

Heuristic Ramp-Metering Coordination Strategy Implemented at Monash Freeway, Australia

A new traffic-responsive feedback control strategy, heuristic ramp-metering coordination (HERO) that coordinates local ramp-metering actions in freeway networks is presented. The proposed coordination scheme is simple and reactive [i.e., based on readily a ...

A Dynamic-Zone-Based Coordinated Ramp-Metering Algorithm With Queue Constraints for Minnesota's Freeways

Nikolaos Geroliminis

Following about 40 years of successful deployment of coordinated traffic-responsive ramp control, a new generation is being developed for Minnesota's freeways based on density measurements, rather than flow rates. This was motivated from recent research in ...

Properties of a well-defined Macroscopic Fundamental Diagram for urban traffic

Nikolaos Geroliminis

A field experiment in Yokohama (japan) revealed that a macroscopic fundamental diagram (MFD) linking space-mean flow, density and speed exists on a large urban area. It was observed that when the highly scattered plots of flow vs. density from individual f ...

Hysteresis phenomena of a Macroscopic Fundamental Diagram in freeway networks

Nikolaos Geroliminis

Observations of traffic pairs of flow vs. density or occupancy for individual locations in freeways or arterials are usually scattered about an underlying curve. Recent observations from empirical data in arterial networks showed that in some cases by aggr ...

A Comparison of Freeway Work Zone Capacity Prediction Models

Nan Zheng

To keep the freeway networks in a good condition, road works such as maintenance and reconstruction are carried out regularly. The resulting work zones including the related traffic management measures, give different traffic capacities of the infrastructu ...

Coordinated ramp metering for freeway networks - A model-predictive hierarchical control approach

A nonlinear model-predictive hierarchical control approach is presented for coordinated ramp metering of freeway networks. The utilized hierarchical structure consists of three layers: the estimation/prediction layer, the optimization layer and the direct ...

Dynamic speed limit control to resolve shock waves on freeways : Field test results of the SPECIALIST algorithm

We present the real-world test of the SPECIALIST algorithm in which dynamic speed limits were used to resolve shock waves on freeways. The real-world test was performed in the period September 2009–February 2010 on a 14 km long stretch on the Dutch A12 fre ...
