Evaluating the Operational Features of an Unconventional Dual-Bay U-Turn Design for Intersections
Median U-turn intersection treatment (MUTIT) has been considered an alternative measure to reduce congestion and traffic conflict at intersection areas. The MUTIT is sometimes difficult to implement in the field because it requires wide median on arterials for U-turn vehicles. The objective of this study is to introduce an unconventional U-turn treatment (UUT) for intersections which requires l...
متن کاملOperational Performance Comparison between Three Unconventional Intersection Designs: Left-turn Bypass, Diverging Flow and Displaced Left-turn
The intense exponential growth of the population in the United States and added vehicles to the roads has transportation planners working on solving the congestion issue. People have to travel longer distances and spend more time on the roads causing congestion of the current networks. Thus, the demand for new roadway and intersection design is a high priority, as wasted fuel and travel time in...
متن کاملCharacteristics of Traffic Flow at Nonsignalized T-Shaped Intersection with U-Turn Movements
Most nonsignalized T-shaped intersections permit U-turn movements, which make the traffic conditions of intersection complex. In this paper, a new cellular automaton (CA) model is proposed to characterize the traffic flow at the intersection of this type. In present CA model, new rules are designed to avoid the conflicts among different directional vehicles and eliminate the gridlock. Two kinds...
متن کاملEnergy U-turn in Germany
Following the disaster at Fukushima-Daiichi, chancellor Angela Merkel decided to speed up rather than slow down Germany's exit from nuclear power.
متن کاملAutoantibodies make a U-turn
Like the immune response itself, our efforts to understand the "rules" for self-nonself discrimination are constantly evolving. The discovery of pattern recognition receptors-the Toll-like receptor (TLR) family in particular-shifted the emphasis of self-nonself recognition from lymphocytes functioning in the adaptive immune system to antigen-presenting cells (APCs) functioning in the innate imm...
