Traffic load generation for the fatigue assessment of the 3rd Bosphorus bridge

Alain Nussbaumer, Cláudio Alexandre Pereira Baptista

This report presents the traffic simulation model for the fatigue life prediction of the stiffening cables and hangers from the 3rd Bosporus bridge in Istanbul, a 2164m long hybrid suspended/stay-cable bridge with a main span of 1408m. Probabilistic models ...

Dynamics of heterogeneity in urban networks: aggregated traffic modeling and hierarchical control

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Mohsen Ramezani Ghalenoei, Jack Haddad

Real traffic data and simulation analysis reveal that for some urban networks a well-defined Macroscopic Fundamental Diagram (MFD) exists, which provides a unimodal and low-scatter relationship between the network vehicle density and outflow. Recent studie ...

Effectiveness of variable speed limits considering commuters' long-term response

Wei Liu

This paper examines the effectiveness of variable speed limits (VSLs) on improving traffic flow efficiency and reducing vehicular emissions in a stylized setting of morning commute where a fixed number of individuals commute from home to work through the f ...

An Underlying Asymmetry within Particle-size Segregation

Christophe Ancey, Nicolas Andreini, Gaël Epely Chauvin, Kasper van der Vaart

We experimentally study particle scale dynamics during segregation of a bidisperse mixture under oscillatory shear. Large and small particles display an underlying asymmetry that is dependent on the local particle concentration, with small particles segreg ...

Asymmetric Particle Behavior during Size Segregation

Christophe Ancey, Kasper van der Vaart

We have performed oscillatory shear experiments on a bidisperse granular mixture in combination with refractive index matched scanning in order to resolve particle motion in three-dimensions during size-segregation. We find that small particles segregate f ...

Cruising-for-parking in congested cities with an MFD representation

Nikolaos Geroliminis

It has been recently proposed and tested that traffic in large urban regions (neighbourhoods) can be modelled dynamically at an aggregate level, if the neighbourhoods are uniformly congested. By exploiting the insights and the properties of a macroscopic f ...

Time-strip visualization and thermo-hydrodynamics in a Closed Loop Pulsating Heat Pipe

John Richard Thome, Navid Borhani, Giulia Spinato, Brian Paul D'Entremont

New trends in the microprocessor industry are leading not only to miniaturization and integration but also to increases in power dissipation rates which now require advanced cooling solutions to prevent thermal damage to the devices. Pulsating heat pipes ( ...

Effect on Bridge Load Effects of Vehicle Transverse In-Lane Position: A Case Study

Mark Anthony Treacy

This paper presents an investigation of the influence of vehicle transverse in-lane position on bridge traffic load effects. To analyze the influence, both finite-element analysis and statistical analysis methods are used, and various technical aspects are ...

Dynamic Modeling of Lane Flow and Density Distribution in Congested Freeways

Nikolaos Geroliminis, André-Gilles Dumont, Sofia Samoili

This research aims to verify the hypothesis that lane traffic distribution initiates traffic regimes occurrence in freeways, and in particular to unveil the inter-dependence of lane vehicle allocation and congestion formation. The developed methodological ...
