This chapter presents the results of the literature review for operational traffic simulation models. Sources compiled for the literature review include guidance documents (general and DOT-specific), ...

Roadway models specifically include several kinds of road networks, such as roundabouts, motorways, arterial routes, and city grid systems, to mention a few. For transportation agencies seeking to ...

Roadway safety continues to be a major public health concern. Recent statistics show that more than 30,000 fatalities occur due to motor vehicle accidents, and in the year 2012, motor vehicle crashes ...

Exclusion processes provide a versatile theoretical framework for understanding systems in which particles or vehicles move subject to restrictions such as mutual exclusion and limited capacity. In ...

Models that predict traffic volume for specific times and places inform everything from traffic-light patterns to apps that tell you how to get from Point A to Point B. Researchers from North Carolina ...

More and larger ships are sailing the world's oceans, and more and more industries are claiming and using them. Highly automated and, in some cases, remotely controlled or even autonomous ships will ...

Systematic, well-designed, and implementable research is the most effective way to solve many problems facing state department of transportation (DOT) administrators and engineers. Often, highway ...
