Estimation of greenhouse gases emissions from urban traffic: a case study of Hamadan city
Background and Objective: Transportation sector generates the largest share of greenhouse gas emissions (CO2 and CH4) which causes global warming. “Stop-and-go” driving and congested traffic flow results in a decrease in average car speeds, an increase in traffic incidents, and finally escalates GHGs emissions. Hence, congestion is directly related to carbon emissions. The objective of this stu...
متن کاملOverview of U.S EPA New Generation Emission Model: MOVES
The U.S Environment Protection Agency (EPA) has released a new generation regulatory mobile emission model, entitled MOVES (Motor Vehicle Emissions Simulator) to replace its current emission models, MOBILE and NONROAD. The transition to MOVES will have important policy implications for regional mobile source emissions, particularly inventories associated with transportation conformity. The meth...
متن کاملEstimation of Vehicular Emissions by Capturing Traffic Variations
Over the past decades, the fast growth in travel has increased traffic congestion, which in turn has increased vehicular emissions significantly. It is difficult to accurately estimate and quantify emissions with current practice because of its reliance on transportation planning models that are based on steady state hourly averages and thus are incapable of capturing the effects of traffic var...
متن کامل06 - 1096 Speed - and Facility - Specific Emission Estimates for On - Road Light - Duty
Estimating the emission consequences of surface transportation operations is a complex process. Decision makers need to quantify the air quality impacts of transportation improvements aimed at reducing congestion on the surface street network. This often requires the coupling of transportation and emission models in ways that are sometimes incompatible. For example, most macroscopic transportat...
متن کاملMitigating Emissions and Energy Consumption for Urban Transportation Networks : Simulation - Based Signal Control Strategies ARcHWS
Microscopic urban traffic simulators embed the most detailed traveler behavior and network supply models. They represent individual vehicles and can therefore account for vehicle-specific technologies. These simulators can be coupled with instantaneous energy consumption and emissions models to yield detailed network-wide estimates of energy consumption and pollutant emissions. Nonetheless, the...
