The definition of a critical gap in literature supports that it not only varies from driver to driver but also for (over) rejected gaps by a driver. In this light, multinomial probit (MNP) models were proposed in the past ...
USHighway Capacity Manual and Indian Highway Capacity Manualdefine road capacity as the maximum sustainable flow rate at which vehicles or persons can reasonably be expected to traverse a point under the given roadway, ...
The Cross model has been successfully used for modeling the shear thinning behavior of asphalt binders. Usually minimization ofleast squares/absolute error is used for obtaining model parameters. The curve fitted using ...
A term Total Crossing Time (TCT) is coined in this study. TCT of a pedestrian includes the time spent by the pedestrian in waiting and his/her crossing of a road. This paper argues that considering a distribution of TCT ...
The paper develops a linear mixed integer programming formulation for allocating platforms optimally to trains arriving at a busy multi-platform station. The formulation does not assume that all trains arrive as per schedule, ...
A two-dimensional continuum model of traffic flow is proposed. The model incorporates disorderly traffic, lane indiscipline, streamwise variation of the width of the road, as well as the impact of edges of the road, on the ...
A stabilized finite element formulation is presented to solve the governing equations for traffic flow. The flow is assumed to be one-dimensional. Both, PW-type (Payne-Whitham) 2-equation models and the LWR-type ...
This study focuses on evaluating the flow behavior of conventional and polymer modified asphalt binders in steady- and dynamic-shear domain, for a temperature range of 20–70 °C, using a Dynamic Shear Rheometer (DSR). ...
Disorderly traffic streams are those that, simply stated, do not
have parallel lines (or lanes) of vehicles but have vehicles distributed
more haphazardly in the road space. Vehicles in such streams, while
moving ...
