Air quality impact of a decision support system for reducing pollutant emissions: CARBOTRAF [PDF]
, 2014 Traffic congestion with frequent “stop & go” situations causes substantial pollutant emissions. Black carbon (BC) is a good indicator of combustion-related air pollution and results in negative health effects.

Physical Review E, 1995 We study a single-lane traffic model that is based on human driving behavior. The outflow from a traffic jam self-organizes to a critical state of maximum throughput. Small perturbations of the outflow far downstream create emergent traffic jams with a power law distribution $P(t) \sim t^{-3/2}$ of lifetimes, $t$.

Measurement of noise events in road traffic streams: initial results from a simulation study [PDF]
, 2016 A key question for road traffic noise management is whether prediction of human response to noise, including sleep quality, could be improved over the use of conventional energy equivalent, or percentile, measures, by accounting for noise events in road ...

Planning and managing rural recreational traffic flows: why the future can’t be more like the past [PDF]
, 2009 The increasing popularity of rural tourism can cause traffic related problems at certain areas. Traffic congestion and parking problems are likely to occur as the infrastructure at these countryside destinations is seldom capable of dealing with the ...

An integrated method for short-term prediction of road traffic conditions for intelligent transportation systems applications [PDF]
, 2013 The paper deals with the short-term prediction of road traffic conditions within Intelligent Transportation Systems applications. First, the problem of traffic modeling and the potential of different traffic monitoring technologies are discussed.

Health in Emergencies & Disasters Quarterly, 2019 Background: Drivers play a crucial role in accidents. By paying attention to brake lights, a driver may find out about danger and react adequately. Rear-end collision accidents are caused by the driver’s inattention or slow reaction.

The accumulation of metals in Polygonum aviculare L. in area of the Kraljevo city [PDF]
Kragujevac Journal of Science, 2014 Elevated heavy metal concentrations cause environmental pollution. Our study examines the content of heavy metals (Pb, Ni, Mn, Fe and Cu) in the aboveground parts of Polygonum aviculare L.
