Safety of Passengers on Railway Platforms?Using Various Computers
Recently, it has become very important to take measures to improve platform safety in Japan. Many passengers use railway platforms all day long (from the first train to the last train)....

The Automation of Freeway Ramp Junctions Analysis
Congestion on urban freeways has been steadily increasing. In contrast, capacity expansion, by means of constructing new roadways, has not kept pace with the growth in demand. The primary...

Multiple Objectives, Uncertainty and Routing Decisions for Hazardous Materials Shipments
Explicit consideration of multiple objectives and uncertainty is important in hazardous materials transportation, particularly in regulating routes or making routing decisions. Application...

Simulation of ATIS Strategies to Mitigate Special Event Congestion
This research extends the performance and application of DYNASMART, a dynamic traffic simulation model which incorporates the three elements necessary for modeling traffic flow under information:...

Interactive Simulation for Modeling Dynamic Driver Behavior in Response to ATIS
It has been contended that in-laboratory experimentation with interactive microcomputer simulation can substitute for the lack of real-world applications and provide a useful approach...

Algorithms for Efficient Real-time Traffic Assignment
Fast algorithms are essential to accomplish real-time traffic assignment for optimal routing or traffic prediction under ATMS/ATIS. User-equilibrium and system-optimal traffic assignment...

A Real-Time Expert System for Freeway Incident Management in Orange County, California
This paper discusses the development of a prototype, multi-user, networked, real-time knowledge-based expert system (KBES) to provide decision support to California Department of Transportation...

User-Friendly Simulation Model for Traffic Networks with ATIS/ATMS
Implementation of ATIS (Advanced Traffic Information Systems) and/or ATMS (Advanced Traffic Management Systems) are proceeding in many cities around the world, but only very few frameworks...

Bellevue Smart Traveler: Phase 2
Traffic congestion in urban centers can be attributed to large numbers of workers traveling in single occupant vehicles to densely clustered downtown employment facilities. This project...

Evaluation Plan for AVL Implementations
The Federal Transit Administration, as part of the Advanced Public Transportation Systems program (a component of the Intelligent Vehicle-Highway Systems initiative), is conducting the...

IVHS and HOV Facilities
This paper examines the application o f intelligent vehicle-highway systems (IVHS) technology to high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) facilities. Current projects are described and potential applications...

Application of Spencer's Method for Slope Stability Analysis
For slope stability analysis with general, arbitrarily shaped failure surfaces, the Spencer's method has been found to provide a reasonably accurate result. This method satisfies both...

Simulation Architecture for Advanced Traffic Management Systems
Trends in Intelligent Highway-Vehicle Systems (IVHS), specifically Advanced Traffic Management System (ATMS) technologies are directed toward better integration between intersection controller...

The Cal Poly ATMIS Traffic Operations Center Simulator
This paper describes the development of state-of-the-art traffic simulation software powerful enough to support a wide range of testbed experiments related to Advanced Traffic Management...

Development of Differential Growth Method for Automated Vehicle Recognition
The purpose of this study is to improve a system which enables automatic recognition of vehicles from video images using image processing system. Basic methodology is a subtracting operation...

An Application of Fuzzy Set Theory to Preference Analysis in Bus Route Choices
One of the difficulties in applying fuzzy set theory to the real situation is how to determine membership functions. In this study, a questionnaire survey was conducted to assess bus riders'...

Fit to Drink
Amendments to the Safe Drinking Water Act (SWDA) in 1986 greatly expanded the number of contaminants subject to regulation and significantly beefed up water quality treatment and monitoring...

Airport Infrastructure Management
Airport capacity limitations and the resulting congestion and delay plague the U.S. airports and airways. There is a need for increased investment in airport infrastructure. More importantly...

TRACK(1.0): A Railroad Track Design and Evaluation Computer Program for Work Planning and Budgeting
This paper describes TRACK, a track structural analysis method and computer program developed by the U.S. Army Construction Engineering Research Laboratories. TRACK is a program for evaluating...

Optimization of a Maintenance Station Network
This report is about a method for optimizing maintenance station and storage networks for maintenance of various traffic channels like streets, roads and sea channels. The results that...
