The effect of traffic light spacing and signal congruency on drivers’ responses at urban intersections

open access: yesTransportation Engineering, 2022
Traffic lights are critical in regulating traffic flow and modulate the level of service and road user safety. As suggested by studies conducted with pedestrians, traffic light spacing and signal congruency could also impact a driver's decision-making ...

Analysis of the Embankment Settlement on Soft Soil Subgrade with a Cement Mixed Pile

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2021
The settlement of the widening of soft soil subgrade highways is typically associated with different treatment positions of cement mixed piles. In order to overcome this, in the current paper we employ the finite element method to simulate and analyze ...

Road network optimization using heuristic and linear programming

open access: yesJournal of Forest Science, 2010
To minimize the cost of logging, it is necessary to optimize the road density. The aim of this study was to determine optimal road spacing (ORS) in Northern Austria. The stepwise regression method was used in modelling.
