Passing Segment Length Determination on Two-Lane Highways
Transportation Research Procedia, 2017 Abstract Passing lane has been often constructed to dissipate traffic queues growing behind slow moving vehicles. These queues may appear randomly on a two-lane highway depending on geometry, traffic volumes, location and vehicle performance. For example, on the uphill side of a highway with relatively high AADT, a transient queue can rapidly grow ...

Using Non-Parametric Tests to Evaluate Traffic Forecasting Performance. [PDF]
, 2002 This paper proposes the use of a number of nonparametric comparison methods for evaluating traffic flow forecasting techniques. The advantage to these methods is that they are free of any distributional assumptions and can be legitimately used on small ...

Collision prediction models with longitudinal data: an analysis of contributing factors in collision frequency in road segments in Portugal [PDF]
, 2016 In spite of the strategic importance of the national Portuguese road network, there are no recent studies concerned with either the identification of contributory factors to road collisions or collision prediction models (CPMs) for this type of roadway ...

Virtual-MIMO-Boosted Information Propagation on Highways
, 2015 In vehicular communications, traffic-related information should be spread over the network as quickly as possible to maintain a safer transportation system. This motivates us to develop more efficient information propagation schemes.
