Considering weather in simulating traffic

André-Gilles Dumont, Ashish Bhaskar, Minh Hai Pham, Sofia Samoili

The impact of weather on traffic and its behavior is not well studied in literature primarily due to lack of integrated traffic and weather data. Weather can significant effect the traffic and traffic management measures developed for fine weather might no ...

Operational macroscopic modeling of complex urban intersections

Gunnar Flötteröd

This article describes a new approach to the macroscopic first order modeling and simulation of traffic flow in complex urban road intersections. The framework is theoretically sound, operational, and comprises a large body of models presented so far in th ...

In-situ dynamic behavior of a railway bridge girder under fatigue causing traffic loading

Eugen Brühwiler, Andrin Herwig

Stresses in bridges due to traffic loading need to be determined as accurately as possible for reliable fatigue safety verification. In particular, the dynamic traffic effect due to running vehicles has to be considered in a realistic way. In-situ measurem ...

Insomnia in the Access (or How to Curb Access Network Related Energy Consumption)

Dejan Kostic, Marco Canini, Alberto López

Access networks include modems, home gateways, and DSL Access Multiplexers (DSLAMs), and are responsible for 70-80% of total network-based energy consumption. In this paper, we take an in-depth look at the problem of greening access networks, identify root ...
