Freeway on-ramps are typical bottlenecks in the freeway network due to the frequent disturbances caused by their associated merging, weaving, and lane-changing behaviors. With real-time communication and precise motion control, Connected…
On-ramp merging areas are typical bottlenecks in the freeway network, since merging on-ramp vehicles may cause intensive disturbances on the mainline traffic flow and lead to various negative impacts on traffic efficiency and safety. The…
The cooperative control of the connected and automated vehicle (CAV) is recognized as an effective approach to alleviate traffic congestion and improve traffic safety, especially for on-ramp bottlenecks. However, in the mixed traffic, the…
In the context of autonomous driving on expressways, the issue of ensuring safe and efficient ramp merging remains a significant challenge. Existing systems often struggle to accurately assess the status and intentions of other vehicles,…
Ramp metering is one of the most effective tools to combat traffic congestion. In this paper, we present a ramp metering policy for a network of freeways with arbitrary number of on- and off-ramps, merge, and diverge junctions. The proposed…
On-ramp merging areas are deemed to be typical bottlenecks for freeway networks due to the intensive disturbances induced by the frequent merging, weaving, and lane-changing behaviors. The Connected and Autonomous Vehicles (CAVs), benefited…
This paper addresses the optimal control of Connected and Automated Vehicles (CAVs) arriving from two roads at a merging point where the objective is to jointly minimize the travel time and energy consumption of each CAV. The solution…
We address the problem of optimally controlling Connected and Automated Vehicles (CAVs) arriving from two multi-lane roads and merging at multiple points where the objective is to jointly minimize the travel time and energy consumption of…
Our current transportation system suffers from a number of problems in terms of safety, mobility, and environmental sustainability. The emergence of innovative intelligent transportation systems (ITS) technologies, and in particular…
Aiming at the problem of driver's perception lag and low utilization efficiency of space-time resources in expressway ramp confluence area, based on the preemptive spatiotemporal trajectory Adjustment system, from the perspective of…
This article addresses the problem of controlling the speed of a number of automated vehicles before they enter a speed reduction zone on a freeway. We formulate the control problem and provide an analytical, closed-form solution that can…
We consider the freeway network control problem where the aim is to optimize the operation of traffic networks modeled by the Cell Transmission Model via ramp metering and partial mainline demand control. Optimal control problems using the…
Ramp merging is considered as one of the major causes of traffic congestion and accidents because of its chaotic nature. With the development of connected and automated vehicle (CAV) technology, cooperative ramp merging has become one of…
Highway merges present difficulties for human drivers and automated vehicles due to incomplete situational awareness and a need for a structured (precedence, order) environment, respectively. In this paper, an unstructured merge algorithm…
Ramp merging is a critical maneuver for road safety and traffic efficiency. Most of the current automated driving systems developed by multiple automobile manufacturers and suppliers are typically limited to restricted access freeways only.…
The merging area of highway ramps faces multiple challenges, including traffic congestion, collision risks, speed mismatches, driver behavior uncertainties, limited visibility, and bottleneck effects. However, autonomous vehicles engaging…
Urban intersections, merging roadways, roundabouts, and speed reduction zones along with the driver responses to various disturbances are the primary sources of bottlenecks in corridors that contribute to traffic congestion. The…
In the freeway network control (FNC) problem, the operation of a traffic network is optimized using only flow control. For special cases of the FNC problem, in particular the case when all merging flows are controlled, there exist tight…
Traffic Congestions and accidents are major concerns in today's transportation systems. This thesis investigates how to optimize traffic flow on highways, in particular for merging situations such as intersections where a ramp leads onto…
Traffic interactions between merging and highway vehicles are a major topic of research, yielding many empirical studies and models of driver behaviour. Most of these studies on merging use naturalistic data. Although this provides insight…
