The Effect of Speed Humps on Highways Pavement Condition
Speed humps used as a tool of traffic calming technique that applied to force drivers to reduce their vehicle’ speeds at some locations. For developed countries, the implementations of speed humps are often used within residential areas as well as at locations of schools crossing. For developing countries (e.g. Iraq), speed humps are used even at urban and urban highways. This paper investig...
متن کاملReducing fuel emissions by optimizing speed on shipping routes
Fuel consumption and emissions on a shipping route are typically a cubic function of speed. Given a shipping route consisting of a sequence of ports with a time window for the start of service, substantial savings can be achieved by optimizing the speed of each leg. This problem is cast as a non-linear continuous program, which can be solved by a non-linear programming solver. We propose an alt...

متن کاملDouble Optimization of Fuel Consumption and Speed Tracking
This paper presents automatic fuel consumption optimization with simultaneous keeping the recommended vehicle’s speed. These tasks are closely related since a simple minimization of fuel consumption leads to stopping a vehicle. The proposed “double” optimization is performed online using combination of two controllers. The first of them is based on fully probabilistic design (FPD) under Bayesia...
متن کاملDistance between speed humps and pedestrian crossings: does it matter?
Speed humps are a common physical measure installed at pedestrian crossings to reduce vehicle speeds therefore improve the safety and mobility of pedestrians at the crossing. The aim of this study was to determine whether variations in distance between speed humps and pedestrian crossings contribute differently to the safety and mobility of pedestrians and cyclists, especially children and the ...
