Relevant risk indicators for driving are selected, including five driver-related indicators and three vehicle-related indicators. Subsequently, each indicator’s threshold range and associated risk level are analyzed and defined. The methodologies for establishing unascertained measure and their corresponding functions for both single and multiple indicator unascertained measure are then elucidated. A game theory–based weighting method is proposed, employing ordinal relationship analysis (ORA) and entropy weighting (EW) to determine indicator weights while utilizing confidence identification criteria to ascertain risk levels. Finally, experimental analyses are conducted on the driving risk assessment model, and the simulation results demonstrated the model’s ability to distinguish between normal and risky driving. In a continuous driving simulation, the model successfully identified a peak risk period (Level V) and, following a system alert, driving behavior returned to normal risk levels within 5 min. The model demonstrated utility for control switching decisions in human-machine codriving scenarios, identifying instances where driver risk (Level IV) significantly exceeded vehicle risk (Level II), indicating a need to transfer control to the vehicle system. Consequently, the study’s findings can provide theoretical support for control switching mechanisms in human-machine codriving vehicles.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":50259,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Advanced Transportation","volume":"2024 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1155/atr/4659804","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142861875","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, the recognition of asphalt’s mechanical aspects is very important. One of the important features of asphalt is its shear strength, which should be measured accurately. However, the methods that have been presented to measure this important factor of asphalt always encounter weaknesses. So, it is necessary to find a suitable method to determine the shear strength of asphalt with more accurate results and high compatibility with reality. In this regard, the purpose of the present research was to design jaws in order to measure the shear strength in the direction and opposite direction of the traffic path and provide a model to predict shear strength using Marshall stability resulting from invented jaws. In order to examine the accuracy of the designed jaw in this study, two different types of asphalt, Binder 0–25 and Topeka 0–19 grading, were used. For this purpose, Marshall stability and shear strength tests in the direction and opposite direction of the Marshall were conducted with 12 repetitions on these samples. Also, the genetic programming (GP) evolutionary algorithm was applied in this study to provide a prediction model of shear strength. The results of this study indicated that there was a significant relationship between the Marshall stability and the shear strength in the direction and opposite direction of the Marshall applying the invented jaws in both asphalt types, and the coefficient of determination (<i>R</i>²) for the Binder and Topeka were 0.93 and 0.97 in the Marshall’s direction and 0.96 and 0.95 for the Marshall’s opposite direction, respectively. Also, the results of the GP method indicated that the relationships between predicted and actual values of shear strength for Binder and Topeka asphalt types were appropriately described by <i>R</i>² of 99.47% and 99.21% with RMSE of 8.0177 and 5.0143 in the traffic direction, and <i>R</i>² of 97.45% and 98.08% with RMSE of 1.2684 and 0.7035 in the traffic opposite direction, respectively. Therefore, GP provided a more suitable fit of all experimental data for both Binder and Topeka asphalts, and it can be said that with the help of new designed jaws, the shear strength in the direction and opposite direction of the Marshall can be estimated with high accuracy.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":50259,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Advanced Transportation","volume":"2024 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-12-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1155/atr/2270042","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142862054","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Meanwhile, to address the problem that the current electric bus energy consumption prediction model is not conducive to realistic application, this paper proposes an energy consumption prediction model that considers actual electric bus operation data to predict trip energy consumption. First, based on the operation data of six routes in Beijing, the influencing factors of electric bus energy consumption are summarized, including route name, travel direction, weekday and nonweekday, operation time, vehicle number, and driver’s name. Secondly, the energy consumption influencing factors were used to extract trip energy consumption features, including departure moment features, vehicle performance features, and driver attribute features. A new simple method is proposed to deal with un-ordered characteristic data to solve the problem of quantifying the influencing factors. The energy consumption prediction model considering actual quantifiable features utilizes the concept of distance to identify several historical trips that have characteristics most similar to the predicted trip in terms of energy consumption. The new prediction model is essentially a machine learning model based on <i>k</i>-means clustering algorithm, which leverages feature extraction and data analysis to make predictions. Finally, the real data are used to predict the energy consumption of different routes and different driving directions on weekdays, respectively. The energy consumption prediction error is as low as 7.112%, and the prediction results are compared with other traditional prediction models, and the model accuracy is high.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":50259,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Advanced Transportation","volume":"2024 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-12-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1155/atr/3058575","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142851459","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To address this issue, attention has been focused on the pivotal role of median guardrails as safety barriers. While conventional guardrails have effectively hindered vehicles from veering off course, mitigating accident severity, they are now inadequate in meeting the heightened protective standards necessitated by the surge in truck traffic and advancements in vehicle capabilities. To evaluate and enhance the protective capabilities of guardrails, this research employs a vehicle finite element (FE) model in conjunction with a W-beam guardrail system. Collision trajectories, acceleration, and displacement metrics were analyzed to compare the effectiveness of three improved guardrail designs in preventing crossing in the event of a runaway truck. Furthermore, based on the design of the retrofitted guardrail, the optimization of the structural parameters was carried out by a multiobjective optimization method using radial basis function (RBF) and NSGA-II algorithms with the size of the guardrail as the design variable. The collision simulation comparisons reveal that the double W-beam arch-reinforced guardrail surpasses both the double W-beam and the arch-reinforced guardrail regarding protective performance. Notably, the double W-beam design offers a viable option for disposing of obsolete guardrails postdemolition. The optimized design underscores that optimal structural protection is achieved when meticulously adjusting the thickness of the upper girder plate and the arch to precise dimensions.
