Vehicle-to-vehicle based multi-objective coordinated adaptive cruise control considering platoon stability

Advances in Mechanical Engineering, 2018
Currently, there is a widespread concern over cooperative driving based on vehicle-to-vehicle communication due to its considerable potential to improve the increased traffic safety, efficiency, costs, and intellectualization.

The energy impact of adaptive cruise control in real-world highway multiple-car-following scenarios

European Transport Research Review, 2020
Background Surging acceptance of adaptive cruise control (ACC) across the globe is further escalating concerns over its energy impact. Two questions have directed much of this project: how to distinguish ACC driving behaviour from that of the human ...

A Systematic Review of Empirical Studies on Situation Awareness: Perspectives From the Interaction Among Humans, Machines, and the Task Environment

PsyCh Journal, Volume 14, Issue 5, Page 718-733, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Situational awareness (SA) refers to “knowing what is going on” in a situation. As an essential concept originating in aviation literature approximately 40 years ago, SA has demonstrated significant potential and has since been extended across various fields, leading to a growing body of research.

A distributed model predictive approach for network traffic signal control using multi‐objective dynamic programming

Computer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering, Volume 40, Issue 24, Page 3953-3978, 6 October 2025.
Abstract Real‐time traffic signal control (TSC) in road networks remains challenging due to variable traffic flows and high computational complexity. Existing model predictive control (MPC) approaches often face several limitations, including the reliance on commercial solvers, the inflexibility of single‐objective optimization, and the use of ...

Order parameter model for unstable multilane traffic flow

, 2000
We discuss a phenomenological approach to the description of unstable vehicle motion on multilane highways that explains in a simple way the observed sequence of the phase transitions "free flow -> synchronized motion -> jam" as well as the hysteresis in

Explainable reinforcement learning for improved traffic signal control

Computer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering, Volume 40, Issue 24, Page 3911-3933, 6 October 2025.
Abstract Reinforcement learning has become a popular approach for traffic signal control, but its complexity often hinders practical application. To improve this, we propose a deep Q‐network framework with an attention mechanism inspired by how traffic police manage intersections.

Connected and Automated Vehicle Trajectory Control in Stochastic Heterogeneous Traffic Flow with Human-Driven Vehicles Under Communication Delay and Disturbances

Actuators
In this paper, we study the stability of the stochastically heterogeneous traffic flow involving connected and automated vehicles (CAVs) and human-driven vehicles (HDVs).

Theoretical vs. Empirical Classification and Prediction of Congested Traffic States

, 2009
Starting from the instability diagram of a traffic flow model, we derive conditions for the occurrence of congested traffic states, their appearance, their spreading in space and time, and the related increase in travel times.

An enhanced approach for weaving area capacity estimation combining high‐fidelity simulation and interpretable machine learning

Computer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering, Volume 40, Issue 25, Page 4273-4295, 20 October 2025.
Abstract Accurately assessing weaving area capacity is critical for optimizing traffic management. However, transportation agencies face a persistent challenge: Existing capacity models often inadequately characterize vehicle weaving behaviors and fail to quantify the interactions between influencing factors.
