An accurate density monitoring along a stretch of a freeway, especially under congested time-variant conditions is necessary to evaluate congestion levels, understand complex traffic phenomena and develop efficient control strategies. In the first part of ...
For the critical focusing wave equation □u=u5 on R3+1 in the radial case, we establish the role of the “center stable” manifold Σ constructed in [18] near the ground state (W,0) as a threshold between blowup and scattering ...
Since centralized control of urban networks with detailed modeling approaches is computationally complex and inefficient, hierarchical decentralized methods based on aggregate models are of great importance. In this paper, we use an aggregate modeling appr ...
The concept of the Macroscopic Fundamental Diagram (MFD) is elegant and attractive because it provides a global view of traffic behavior and performance at a network level. However, recent research shows that the MFD shape can be influenced by local traffi ...
This paper presents an alternative approach for analyzing the relationship between land use and traffic congestion by employing the Macroscopic Fundamental Diagram (MFD). The MFD is an empirically observed relationship between traffic flow and traffic dens ...
This paper proposes a simulation-based optimization (SO) method that enables the efficient use of complex stochastic urban traffic simulators to address various transportation problems. It presents a metamodel that integrates information from a simulator w ...
Ensuing from the deteriorating conditions of road networks, traffic forecasting techniques with mathematical and computer-theory methods have been employed to address the real-time prediction of traffic conditions and their dynamic control, with the optimu ...
A dynamic pedestrian propagation model applicable to congested and multi-directional flows is proposed. Based on the cell transmission model, several important extensions are made to describe the simultaneous and potentially conflicting propagation of mult ...
In Switzerland, the largest railway stations are called "RailCities" by the Swiss Railways. It emphasizes their transformation into place to live and perform several different activities, similar to a small-scale city. Similar concerns than in urban areas ...
It was recently observed from empirical traffic data that by aggregating the highly scattered plots of flow versus density from individual loop detectors for city regions with homogeneous spatial distribution of congestion, the scatter significantly decrea ...
