Together with signal priority, dedication of space to public transport has been the most widely used policy to improve bus operations. Permanent dedicated bus lanes however can lead to an under-utilization of the available space. Dierent strategies such as ...
In this thesis, we developed a research direction that combines the theoretical concepts of complex networks with practical needs and applications in the field of transportation engineering.
As a first objective we analyzed the phenomenon of congestion pr ...
The paper “Dynamic efficiency in multilayer transportation networks” (Bellocchi, Geroliminis, 2018) [1] introduced new performance measures to quantify dynamically the effect of traffic congestion in a multilayer network. Based on these measures, we explor ...
Transit priority based in exclusive right-of-way is a low-cost way of improving transit service by minimizing delays caused by interaction with other vehicles. This effect can increase the share of public transit against private cars in the mode preference ...
City-scale control of urban road traffic poses a challenging problem. Dynamical models based on the macroscopic fundamental diagram (MFD) enable development of model predictive perimeter control methods for large-scale urban networks, representing an advan ...
Urbanization intensifies as a global trend, exposing transportation networks to ever increasing levels of congestion. As network usage increases with available infrastructure, building new roads is not a solution. Design of intelligent transportation syste ...
The goal of this thesis is to analyze lane changes and lane choice in a congested urban envi- ronment. This is possible thanks to the pNEUMA dataset, a new trac dataset resulting from a eld experiment with 10 drones ying over the central district of Athen ...
Ensuring good access is a key element of land-use planning, allowing people to move around and access different services. This project focuses on the perception of access, as people base their transport mode choice on it. The context of lockdown due to COV ...
Buses operating in mixed traffic experience problems with delay and travel time variability in peak periods. Numerous transit priority measures are found in the literature but most rely on separating buses from other vehicles. Complete separation such as d ...
Recent advances in the network-level traffic flow modelling provide an efficient tool for analyzing traffic performance of large-scale networks. A relationship between density and flow at the network level is developed and widely studied, namely the macros ...
