This paper aims to investigate gap acceptance behavior during discretionary lane-changing maneuvers taking into consideration of the heterogeneity among drivers and lane-changing urgency on a freeway segment. The lane-changing trajectory data of 2735 passenger cars were extracted from drone videos. Firstly, the traffic conflicts index, time-to-coll...

Crash injuries not only result in huge property damages, physical distress, and loss of lives, but arouse a reduction in roadway capacity and delay the recovery progress of traffic to normality. To assess the resilience of post-crash tunnel traffic, two novel concepts, i.e., surrogate resilience measure (SRM) and injury-based resilience (IR), were...

Predicting the crowd flow in various areas of the city is of strategic importance for traffic control and public safety. In recent years, crowd flow prediction based on spatio-temporal data are gaining more and more attention. In order to better understand the current status of spatio-temporal crowd flow prediction research and global cooperation,...

The safety situation of hazardous materials (hazmat) accidents during road transportation in China is severe and very serious accidents occurred frequently. Such accidents not only have a huge impact on the environment but also have serious consequences for people and the economy, such as fires and explosions. Therefore, it is necessary to understa...

As well as offering tremendous opportunities for existing transportation systems, autonomous driving presents challenges for traffic management, particularly in mixed traffic flow. The design of driving strategies for autonomous vehicles (AVs) considers both safety and efficiency to promote smooth traffic flow with no collisions. However, the compl...

Acoustic emission (AE) testing has been an active area of research globally for many decades. The present work is a comprehensive overview based on bibliometric analysis to investigate the application of AE research. The publication trends, key areas, organizations, countries, and sources and publications of AE applications are presented to address...

Objective: Hit-and-run behavior in crashes is a severe offense worldwide because the identification and emergency rescue of any injured road user is delayed. A motorist’s run from the crash scene is especially serious for a cyclist who would be more prone to be physically injured in a bicycle-vehicle (BV) crash. The objective of this paper is to ex...

In 1979, Transportation Research Part B: Methodological (TR-Part B) split from its mother journal Transportation Research, which was founded by Dr. Frank A. Haight in 1967, to set off on a journey as an independent journal with a theme on methodological development of transportation science. Since then, TR-Part B has been a leading international jo...

Adverse weather condition is one of the inducements that lead to supply uncertainty of an urban transportation system, while travelers’ multiple route choice criteria are the nonignorable reason resulting in demand uncertainty. This paper proposes a novel stochastic traffic network equilibrium model considering impacts of adverse weather conditions...

Objective: Phantom vehicle crashes (PVCs), or miss-and-run crashes, are a topical issue in car insurance coverage because of controversies over testimony and compensation. However, no peer-reviewed literature has examined the perceptions and deliberations involved in this infrequent type of car crash. A novel taxonomy of roadway traffic crashes is...

The job satisfaction level (JSL) of self-employed container truck drivers (SCTDs) is vital to the container trucking industry’s (CTI) stability in China. An anonymous field survey of 645 SCTDs was conducted at Shanghai Port. Three ordered probit models were, respectively, developed to analyze the drivers’ JSLs, their attitudes, and reactions to a C...

Hit-and-run crashes are a relatively infrequent but severe offense worldwide because the identification and emergency rescue of victims is delayed, which increases the injury severities and the mortality rate. However, no studies have been conducted on hit-and-run crashes in urban river-crossing road tunnels (URCRTs), which can greatly threaten the...

Adverse weather can reduce visibility and road surface friction, lower vehicle maneuverability, and increase crash frequency and injury severity. The impacts of adverse weather and its interactions with drivers and roadway on the operation and management of expressway or expressway bridges have drawn the researchers’ and managers’ attention to deve...

Based on the originally unprocessed data from the Official Platform of “110” Alarming Receiving Center (OP110ARC) of Shanghai Public Security Bureau (SPSB), 529 single-vehicle crashes reported during one year and a half which happened at the thirteen urban road tunnels going across the Huangpu River are used in this study. To investigate the factor...

This paper presents an Integrated Emergency Management System (IEMS) for hazardous materials (HM) transport, by introducing a theory of risk control and management. The proposed system is composed of three sub-systems including the Risk Monitoring Platform (RMP) for transport companies, the On-board Monitoring System (OMS) for vehicles and drivers,...

In recent years, the large number and long length of long road tunnels with wide structure dimensions in China attract the attention of the world. The traffic safety problems of long tunnels caused by complex construction technology and management difficulties are becoming more and more significant. Nevertheless, there are no systematic studies on...

Among adverse weather conditions, rainy weather may be one of the conditions which cause significant negative impacts on traffic safety. This paper develops a quantitative model that is used to analyze driving risks under rainy weather conditions. The data is derived from an extensive questionnaire survey in shanghai. And the questionnaire includes...

In this paper, the rate of road tunnel accidents, which is largely relevant to some traffic indexes, is represented by the «speed variation» (the standard deviation of speed). Then the studies try to model the relationship between the speed variation and some other selected traffic parameters related to road tunnel traffic safety, such as the traff...
