Keyvan Ekbatani, M. (author), Gao, X. (author), Gayah, V.V. (author), Knoop, V.L. (author)Recent findings regarding macroscopic relationships of urban traffic measures such as the Macroscopic or Network Fundamental Diagram (MFD or NFD) have led to the development of novel traffic control strategies that can be applied at a network-wide level. One pertinent example is perimeter flow control (also known as gating or metering), which...conference paper 2016

Milakis, D. (author), Snelder, M. (author), Van Arem, B. (author), Van Wee, G.P. (author), Homem De Almeida Rodriguez Correia, G. (author)Automated driving technology is emerging. Yet, less is known about when automated vehicles will hit the market, how penetration rates will evolve and to what extent this new transportation technology will affect transportation demand and planning. This study identified through scenario analysis plausible future development paths of automated...conference paper 2016

van Beinum, A.S. (author), Farah, H. (author), Wegman, F.C.M. (author), Hoogendoorn, S.P. (author)Turbulence in traffic is a commonly known phenomenon, but the exact characteristics of this phenomenon are not yet clear. It reflects individual changes in speed, headways, and lanes in the traffic stream. The currently used freeway design guidelines prescribe different measures for handling turbulence, such as sufficient ramp spacing, and...conference paper 2016

Farah, H. (author)Overtaking on two-lane roads is a complex driving maneuver. Drivers who desire to overtake a lead vehicle need to evaluate the available gaps in the opposite direction and accept a sufficient gap to successfully complete the overtaking maneuver. However, often drivers realize that the gap they accepted is shorter than what they actually need to...conference paper 2016

Urban network throughput optimization via model predictive control using the link transmission modelVan de Weg, G.S. (author), Keyvan Ekbatani, M. (author), Hegyi, A. (author), Hoogendoorn, S.P. (author)Developing practicable and efficient real-time signal control strategies for urban road networks is a major challenge with significant scientific and practical relevance. For the sake of practical feasibility, many urban traffic control strategies are based on simplified models. In this way, a trade-off can be made between controller accuracy,...conference paper 2016

Iliadi, A. (author), Farah, H. (author), Schepers, P. (author), Hoogendoorn, S.P. (author)Weaving is defined as the crossing of two streams travelling in the same direction along a significant section of the road without the assistance of traffic control devices. Merging and diverging vehicles need to make one or more lane-changes in a limited space and time, determined by the weaving section length. This situation creates intensive...conference paper 2016

Llorca, C. (author), Farah, H. (author)Passing maneuvers allow faster drivers to continue driving at their own desired speeds without being delayed behind an impeding vehicle. On two lane rural roads, this requires from the passing driver to occupy the opposing lane. This has tremendous implications on safety and operation of two-lane roads. In the literature, several studies...conference paper 2016

Varotto, S.F. (author), Glerum, A. (author), Stathopoulos, A. (author), Bierlaire, M. (author), Longo, G. (author)Travel behaviour models typically rely on data afflicted by errors, in perception (e.g., over/under-estimation by traveller) and measurement (e.g., software or researcher imputation error). Such errors are shown to have a relevant impact on model outputs. So far a comprehensive framework to deal with different types of biases related to travel...conference paper 2015

Cats, O. (author), Zhang, C. (author), Nissan, A. (author)Parking pricing policies can be used as a policy instrument to steer the parking market and reduce the externalities caused by traffic in general and parking in particular. A more efficient management of parking demand can improve the utilization of the limited parking capacity at high-demand areas. Even though parking policies are often a topic...conference paper 2015

Farah, H. (author), Shani, M. (author)Road crashes are considered as one of the main threats to human life around the world. Children pedestrians are most at risk to be seriously injured in road crashes, in particular, those from economically disadvantaged communities. Various factors contribute to their high involvement in road crashes. Some of these factors are related to the...conference paper 2015

Wang, M. (author), Daamen, W. (author), Hoogendoorn, S.P. (author), Van Arem, B. (author)The vision of intelligent vehicles traveling in road networks has prompted numerous concepts to control future traffic flow, one of which is the in-vehicle actuation of traffic control signals. The key of this concept is using intelligent vehicles as actuators for traffic control systems, replacing the traditional road-side systems. Under this...conference paper 2015
