Geomaterial Prepared from Waste Tyres, Soil and Cement
Abstract Discarded tyres are becoming globally problematic because recycling them may cause environment related problems. Thus, making use of them needs to be considered, and solutions must be sustainable. In addition, the solution should cover...

ADDING A NEW STEP WITH SPATIAL AUTOCORRELATION TO IMPROVE THE FOUR-STEP TRAVEL DEMAND MODEL WITH FEEDBACK FOR A DEVELOPING CITY
It is expected that improvement of transport networks could give rise to the change of spatial distributions of population-related factors and car ownership, which are expected to further influence travel demand. To properly reflect such an interdependence...

Hybrid of Natural Element Method (NEM) with Genetic Algorithm (GA) to find critical slip surface
Abstract One of the most important issues in geotechnical engineering is the slope stability analysis for determination of the factor of safety and the probable slip surface. Finite Element Method (FEM) is well suited for numerical study of advanced ...

A New Traffic Prediction Method based on Dynamic Tensor Completion
Abstract Traditional traffic prediction methods treat traffic data as one dimensional time series that can’t make full use of multi-mode correlation of traffic data, hence previous prediction models exist different levels of predictability and...

Two Variables Algorithms for Solving the Stochastic Equilibrium Assignment with Variable Demand: Performance Analysis and Effects of Path Choice Models
Abstract In this paper a general fixed-point approach dealing with multi-user (stochastic) equilibrium assignment with variable demand is proposed. The main focus is on (i) the implementation and comparison of different algorithm solutions based on...

An Enhanced Weight-based Topological Map Matching Algorithm for Intricate Urban Road Network
Abstract Map-matching (MM) algorithms integrate positioning data with spatial road network data to identify the correct link on which a vehicle is travelling and determine the location of a vehicle on a link. There are four classes of MM algorithms, ...

How can System Engineering Improve Supplier Management in Megaprojects?
Abstract Megaprojects are frequently delivered with very poor project management performance. Poor performance consists of cost and time escalation, poor outcome quality and shortfall benefits. This is due to several reasons such as intrinsic...

Development of a Freight Demand Model for the Province of Alberta Using Public Sources of Data
Abstract Developing province-wide freight demand models has been a difficult task not only for Canadian provinces but also for almost all transportation jurisdictions in the world. The major reason behind this difficulty is the lack of data required ...

Prediction of Asphalt Concrete Low-temperature Cracking Resistance on the Basis of Different Constitutive Models
Abstract The top-down cracking of asphalt concrete pavements caused by thermal factors are very common in Poland. Cracking can occur as a result of a single intensive event (severe temperature drop) or as a result of cyclic long-term less severe...
