Estimating Road Traffic Capacity [PDF]
This paper proposes a novel passenger car equivalent and capacity estimation methods that determine the effect of deceleration and acceleration performance of heavy goods vehicles on the traffic flow and estimate the capacity to facilitate rescheduling ...

Simulation of Road Capacity Considering the Influence of Buses [PDF]
The traditional cellular automata model cannot fully demonstrate the effect of buses on road capacity due to the incapable of considering the difference in dynamic performance and driving behaviors between buses and other vehicles. In this paper, a novel

The effect of private road supply on the volume/capacity ratio when firms compete Stackelberg in Road Capacity [PDF]
We study road supply by competing firms between a single origin and destination. In previous studies, firms simultaneously set their tolls and capacities while taking the actions of the others as given in a Nash fashion.

The preferences of voters over road tolls and road capacity [PDF]
We consider a congestible road, where the cost of travel increases with the number of users on the road and decreases with capacity. Those persons who do not use the road favor a toll which would maximize revenue, and they oppose spending on road ...

Optimizing road capacity and type [PDF]
We extend the traditional road investment model, with its focus on capacity and congestion as measures of capital and its utilization, to include free-flow speed as another dimension of capital. This has practical importance because one can view free-flow speed as a continuous proxy for road type (e.g. freeway, arterial, and urban street).

Channel coding: The road to channel capacity [PDF]
Starting from Shannon's celebrated 1948 channel coding theorem, we trace the evolution of channel coding from Hamming codes to capacity-approaching codes. We focus on the contributions that have led to the most significant improvements in performance vs.

Evaluation of development potential of cropland in Central Asia
With population growth and rapid urbanization, agricultural land has become a relatively scarce resource. Given the vast land area in Central Asia, exploring the potential of agricultural land development in Central Asia is a realistic guide to the ...

Assessment of the Capacity of Roads Weaving Segments [PDF]
Abstract Driving style is affected by development of cars and it has influence on the capacity of designed elements of roads and highways. Therefore, based on research, more accurate methods for assessing the capacity of road infrastructure are being developed. This paper presents the results of the research of weaving segments.

Roads to Rule, Roads to Rebel: Relational State Capacity and Conflict in Africa [PDF]
Weak state capacity is one of the most important explanations of civil conflict. Yet, current conceptualizations of state capacity typically focus only on the state while ignoring the relational nature of armed conflict. We argue that opportunities for conflict arise where relational state capacity is low, that is, where the state has less control over
