The effect of visibility on road traffic during foggy weather conditions

open access: yesIET Intelligent Transport Systems, 2023
The impact of fog on visibility is a major factor affecting traffic congestion and safety. This paper proposes a microscopic traffic model that captures the features of traffic in foggy weather and characterizes it based on visibility.

Interactions between tram passengers and road vehicles at tram stops - a pilot study [PDF]

open access: yesTransactions on Transport Sciences, 2020
Modern urban and metropolitan areas face numerous problems associated with transport activity, such as pollution, congestion, noise or traffic incidents. One of the solutions to cope with these issues may be encouraging people to use means of public transport instead of private cars.

Assessing the risky riding behavior and the effect of entrance behavior of right-turning motorcyclists on critical gap at T-junctions

open access: yesTransportation Engineering, 2022
T-junctions have a high risk of traffic crashes, and motorcyclists tend to behave differently at different types of junctions. This study aims to determine the motorcyclists’ risky riding behavior and to investigate the effect of risky right-turning ...

The Spitzer–HETDEX Exploratory Large-Area Survey. IV. Model-based Multiwavelength Photometric Catalog

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023
We present a 0.3–4.5 μ m 16-band photometric catalog for the Spitzer/HETDEX Exploratory Large-Area (SHELA) survey. SHELA covers an ∼27 deg ^2 field within the footprint of the Hobby–Eberly Telescope Dark Energy Experiment (HETDEX).
