Walking, as a transportation mode, contributes to not only individual well-being but also environmental sustainability. Though often neglected in the transport planning process that focuses primarily on motorized transport, its benefits recently have renewed interest to promote walking by...

It is difficult to determine whether ghettos are good or bad, partly because racial segregation may have some effects that are unobservable. To overcome this challenge, we present a migration choice model that allows for estimating the overall effects of racial segregation. The key idea...

The traditional cellular automaton (CA) model assumes that drivers only receive information from the preceding vehicles, e.g. the brake light information. However, in reality, drivers not only perceive information from downstream but can also get upstream information, e.g. the honk stimulation....

For the flexible job shop (FJSP) completion time prediction problem considering environmental noise, the mathematical model of the problem, the sample generator and the completion time prediction model based on AE-CNN-LSTM are constructed. Firstly, to address the problem that workshop data is...

This study estimates the impact of China's National Trunk Highway Network (NTHN) on the formation of new manufacturing firms. Our empirical strategy explored changes in the spatial access of new firms to incumbent firms resulting from expansion of NTHN from 2000 to 2009. Overall, the entry of...

Due to the poor road markings and irregular driving behaviors, not every vehicle is positioned in the center of the lane. The deviation from the center can cause discomfort to drivers in the neighboring lane, which is referred to as lateral discomfort (or lateral friction). Such lateral...

The paper mainly studies the following vehicle’s honk effect on the driver of its predecessors in the single-lane cellular automaton model (CA model); besides, the determined condition of honk’s state is investigated in detail, which has seldom been studied before. Then, the influence of...

Mixed traffic without signal control is complicated. This paper proposes a pedestrian–vehicle cellular automata (CA) model to study the characteristics of the mixed traffic. The model includes two sub models. One is the pedestrian model, in which the heterogeneity is taken into consideration....
