The growing importance of economic and environmental issues associated with the replacement of transportation infrastructure creates a demand for new techniques that are able to predict accurately the behaviour of existing structures. While monitoring stru ...
Based on the analyses of data from two distinct measurement campaigns conducted in residential indoor environments in Japan and Switzerland, we identify the specificities of occupants' behaviour with respect to their interactions with windows, including th ...
Recently, the author proposed a new approach how to take advantage of common floating car data in context of urban traffic monitoring (cf. Neumann, 2009: Efficient queue length detection at traffic signals using probe vehicle data and data fusion, 16th ITS ...
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 ...
Floating car data (FCD) meanwhile is a widely available and affordable data source. The given GPS data – delivered in frequencies of some seconds or sometimes only a few minutes – are typically matched to some digital road network and mainly the traffic va ...
Trajectory data play an important role in analyzing real world applications that involve movement features, e.g. natural and social phenomena such as bird migration, transportation management, urban planning and tourism analysis. Such trajectory data are a ...
Collision Warning Systems (CWS) are safety sys- tems designed to warn the driver about an imminent collision. A CWS monitors the dynamic state of the traffic in real- time by processing information from various proprioceptive and exteroceptive sensors. It ...
We propose a methodology for identifying queue spillovers in city street networks with signalized intersections using data from conventional surveillance systems, such as counts and occupancy from loop detectors. The key idea of the proposed methodology is ...
Compared to daily rainfall data, observed subdaily rainfall times are rare and often very short. For hydrologic modeling, this problem is often addressed by generating synthetic hourly rainfall series, with rainfall generators calibrated on relevant rainfa ...
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 ...
