Quantitative analysis of interaction range in vehicular flows
Abstract Applying mathematical theory of functional convolutions we quantitatively detect a range of interaction forces inside ensembles of moving vehicles. With help of a certain specifically-calibrated function describing deflections between...

Identifying the correlation between rainfall, traffic flow performance and air pollution concentration in Seoul using a path analysis
Abstract Extreme weather events including a heavy rain and the snow are known to have negative impacts on the traffic flow and on the air quality in turn. Rainfall however has a moderate effect of washing the pollution in the air as well. The...

Multi-scale Perimeter Control Approach in a Connected-Vehicle Environment
Abstract: This paper proposes a novel approach to integrate optimal control of perimeter intersections (i.e. to minimize local delay) into the perimeter control scheme (i.e. to optimize traffic performance at the network level). This is a complex...

Experimental Research of Destruction of the Edge Field of the Slab–Column Structure Caused by Overload
Abstract Slab–column structures used in design and construction work are one of the typical kinds of structures used in building industry. The emergence of factors unexpected at the designing stage can lead to collapse of the structures. The paper...

The structure of user equilibria: Dynamic coevolutionary simulations vs. cyclically expanded networks
Abstract: A variety of approaches exist that model traffic time-dependently. While all approaches have their advantages and disadvantages but have to find a balance between modeling traffic as realistic as possible and being still manageable in...

A multi-layer social force approach to model interactions in shared spaces using collision prediction
Abstract In shared space environments the movements of road users is not regulated by traffic rules, but is the result of spontaneous interaction between traffic users, who negotiate the priority according to social rules such as eye contact or...
