A classi cation tree based modeling approach for segment related crashes on fi multilane highways
Introduction: This study presents a classification tree based alternative to crash frequency analysis for analyzing crashes on mid block segments of multilane arterials. Method: The traditional approach of modeling counts of crashes that occur over a period of time works well for intersection crashes where each intersection itself provides a well defined unit over which to aggregate the crash d...
متن کاملA novel approach for analyzing severe crash patterns on multilane highways.
This study presents a novel approach for analysis of patterns in severe crashes that occur on mid-block segments of multilane highways with partially limited access. A within stratum matched crash vs. non-crash classification approach is adopted towards that end. Under this approach crashes serve as units of analysis and it does not require aggregation of crash data over arterial segments of ar...
متن کاملTraffic Congestion on Highways in Nigeria Causes, Effects and Remedies
This study investigates the causes, effects and remedies of traffic congestion which has become a common sight in most highways in Nigeria; Mowe/Ibafo section of the Lagos-Ibadan expressway was used as the case-study. 300 Structured questionnaires were distributed among the road users comprising drivers (Private and Commercial), passengers, pedestrians, traffic officers, church congregations, c...
متن کاملIntelligent Management of Highways Congestion based Sensor Networks
The main purpose of this paper is to enable congestion prediction on urban freeways and objectively measure its impact on daily life. Indeed, cars’ trafic becomes increasingly difficult and, often causes traffic jams that can last for hours, because of growing number of used cars, in addition to the unforeseen events that may complicate more and more this problem (weather, accidents, road works...
متن کاملNetwork Congestion Alleviation Using Adjoint Hybrid Control: Application to Highways
This paper derives an optimization-based control methodology for networks of switched and hybrid systems in which each mode is governed by a partial differential equation (PDE). We pose the continuous controller synthesis problem as an optimization program with PDEs in the constraints. The proposed algorithm relies on an explicit formulation of the gradient of the cost function, obtained via th...
