Framework for Analyzing Effects of Spring Load Restrictions (2009)
David Levinson, Ning Li, Xi Zou, Brian Smalkoski, Maryam Hashami
Spring load restrictions (SLR) impose restrictions on heavy trucks during the spring thaw period. Although the policies have been implemented for many years, their economic effects on truckers remain...
Modeling Intersection Driving Behaviors: A Hidden Markov Model Approach (I) (2009)
Driving behaviors at intersection are complex because drivers have to perceive more traffic events than normal road driving and thus are exposed to more errors with safety consequences. Drivers make...
VEHICLE-BASED INTERSECTION MANAGEMENT WITH INTELLIGENT AGENTS (2009)
Signal-based intersection management will change when vehicles with intelligent capability are available in the future. Intelligent agents embedded in vehicle software will be responsible for vehicle...
Simulation and Analysis of Mixed Adaptive Cruise Control / Manual Traffic (2009)
Semi-automated vehicles, such as Adaptive (Intelligent) Cruise Control (ACC) Vehicles, with the capability to follow each other in the same lane, will coexist with manually driven vehicles on the...
Constructing and Using Social Networks: A Regulatory Focus Perspective (2009)
Xi Zou, E. Tory Higgins, Paul Ingram, Xi Zou
This article examines the psychological underpinnings of social networks by drawing on regulatory focus theory—an overarching distinction between two basic motivational systems that underlie...
DETECTING THE BREAKDOWN OF TRAFFIC Submission Date: July 12, 2002 Word count: 6537 words. (2008)
