Nowadays, reassignments of hard shoulders into traffic lanes are spreading across Europe. This traffic management measure allows to respond to the growing saturation of high-capacity roads.In Switzerland, the first stretch to be equipped in such a way was ...
Abstract: Congestion at motorway junctions is a traffic phenomenon that degrades operation of infrastructure and can lead to breakdown of traffic flow and associated reduction in capacity. Advanced communication technologies open new possibilities to preve ...
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 ...
This tutorial describes methodologies to model and understand the collective behavior or different types of urban systems. It highlights under what physical properties the aggregated laws will provide reasonable description of congestion for single- and mu ...
On Freeway A20 near Rotterdam, Netherlands, a trial with dynamic speed limits began on June 28, 2011. On a 4.2-km stretch, the speed limit increased from 80 to 100 km/h as soon as congestion appeared to set in and at night. The aim of dynamic speed limits ...
Cooperative ITS systems are expected to improve road traffic safety and efficiency, and provide infotainment services on the move, through the dynamic exchange of messages between vehicles, and between vehicles and infrastructure nodes. The complexity of c ...
Road traffic crashes are becoming increasing concerns in many countries. In Europe, many efforts have been devoted to improve road traffic safety yet the important target of halving the number of yearly road deaths in 2010 could not be achieved in many Eur ...
Recently, European Union advocates the smart Solid-State Lighting (SSL). The key factors are a smart-control scheme and an interaction with other networks, such as communication networks and traffic monitoring sensor networks. Public lighting represents a ...
This paper presents a novel method for modeling of interaction among multiple moving objects to detect traffic accidents. The proposed method to model object interactions is motivated by the motion of water waves responding to moving objects on water surfa ...
This paper presents the concept of a methodology for identifying in real time risky motorway traffic conditions. This research effort is to automate the extraction of traffic patterns from large data archives using advanced computing techniques. These patt ...
