As traffic congestion becomes a huge problem for most developing and developed countries across the world, intelligent transportation systems (ITS) are becoming a hot topic that is attracting attention of researchers and the general public alike. In this p ...
A smart design of transport systems involves efficient use and allocation of the limited urban road capacity in the multimodal environment. This paper intends to understand the system-wide effect of dividing the road space to the private and public transpo ...
Today, the development and evaluation of traffic management strategies heavily relies on microscopic traffic simulation models. In case detailed input (i.e. od matrix, signal timings, etc.) is extracted and incorporated in these simulators, they can provid ...
Recently, some studies examined how downtown parking space limitation re-shapes the morning commute in the case of a single origin-destination network. This paper further formulates and analyses the commuting equilibrium problem of both mode and departure ...
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 ...
The main purpose of this project is to account for a passenger-centric transit assignment improvement in the framework of a multi-objective optimisation problem in railway networks. Most of the transit assignment models computed to operate railway schedule ...
Recurrent congestion during increasingly extended daily peak periods is an escalating phenomenon with multidimensional impact.Congestion mitigation in highways is polarized between invasive infrastructure interventions and Intelligent Transportation System ...
When drivers are regularly faced with congestion, they try to optimize their departure time. If the demand and the road network evolve slowly enough, the entire system may approach an equilibrium, i.e. a state such that no one can be better off by unilater ...
Safety assessments of road bridges to braking events combine the braking force, acting along the longitudinal axis of the deck, with a vertical load that accounts for the vertical component of the traffic action. In modern design standards the vertical loa ...
This paper examines the design and efficiency of a highway use reservation system where commuters need reservations to access a highway facility at specific times. We show that, by accommodating reservation requests to the level that the highway capacity a ...
