Recently, with the significant spread of technology in the field of computer vision, research has been conducted to manage passenger safety and security with vision-based approaches. Previous research predominantly focuses on single-task vision models, which limits their ability to comprehensively recognize various situations. In addition, conventional vision-based deep learning models require substantial computational power, potentially reducing the operational sustainability of UAMs with limited electrical resources. In this study, we propose a novel cabin surveillance framework for passenger safety and security.

It can effectively perform roles such as detecting prohibited items and recognition of dangerous/abnormal behavior. Moreover, it simplifies the management of the involved models by adding new models or updating the existing ones, and it provides a sustainable system by reducing energy consumption.

This paper develops a variant of the pickup and delivery problem, called the two-echelon pickup and delivery problem using public transport (2E-PDP-PT). In the 2E-PDP-PT, the transportation network is split into two echelons. Different vehicles are utilized across the first and second echelons to ensure distribution efficiency. Parcels are delivered by public transport with free capacity or via trucks between satellites in the first echelon, and logistics vehicles are operated in the second echelon. The satellites are located at the echelon borders to transfer commodities between echelons. The 2E-PDP-PT aims to minimize total delivery costs and improve public transport capacity utilization. We formulate a new mathematical model based on a space-time network and adopt an adaptive large neighborhood search (ALNS) algorithm for the 2E-PDP-PT. The effectiveness of the ALNS algorithm is validated using newly generated small-scale instances. Furthermore, we investigate large-scale instances based on the Beijing Yizhuang transportation network. The computations show that an average total delivery cost savings of 4.5% is feasible. In addition, we analyze the impact of demand distributions and compare the ALNS algorithm and the LNS algorithm. Finally, we conclude that dynamically integrating public transport into freight transport services can benefit both logistics companies and public transport operators.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":50259,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Advanced Transportation","volume":"2024 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1155/2024/1203246","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141967810","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}

This article proposes a method that combines multiple data sources to identify potential bus passenger flows, aiming to address the issue of insufficient identification accuracy with a single data source. First, the spatially weighted <i>K</i>-means algorithm and improved DBSCAN algorithm are designed to partition traffic zones and residents’ travel flow OD is extracted based on mobile phone signaling data. Second, using bus IC card data and vehicle trajectory data, a method for identifying bus passenger boarding and alighting stops based on spatiotemporal clustering is proposed and the bus passenger flow OD for each traffic zone is calculated. By comparing the resident travel flow OD with the bus passenger flow OD, we set a threshold for the potential bus passenger demand proportion. Finally, the analysis is conducted using actual data from a city in central China. The city is divided into 43 traffic zones, with the maximum bus passenger flow proportion between zones being 14.9%, the minimum being 5.0%, and the average being 7.2%. The initial threshold for the potential bus passenger demand proportion is thus set to 7.2%, and a sensitivity analysis is conducted by gradually decreasing the threshold in increments of 0.5% to 6.7%, 6.2%, 5.7%, and 5.2%. The corresponding potential bus passenger demand OD pairs between traffic zones are identified as 419, 358, 245, 151, and 51. Urban managers should focus on the 51 pairs with relatively large potential flows to gradually optimize and balance the development of the bus network based on actual conditions. The method proposed provides important theoretical and practical support for effectively optimizing urban bus networks. However, there are limited indicators for identifying potential passenger flows; in the future, more multidimensional indicators will be taken into consideration.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":50259,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Advanced Transportation","volume":"2024 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1155/2024/5368577","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141967785","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}

Since road accidents on rural highways cause more serious injuries than those on urban highways, providing a suitable method to increase safety in the curves can be a significant contributor to preventing these damages. Although speed is one of the most important variables affecting highway safety, numerous studies have been performed on the reliability analysis of horizontal curves without taking the speed variable into account. The aim of this research is reliability (probability of noncompliance) assessment in the horizontal curve design using geometric design consistency criteria. The radius, superelevation, and operating speed of 19 horizontal curves were collected by field research on the Mashhad-Torbat Heydarieh highway in Iran. Three different approaches were defined based on the geometric design consistency criterion of a single horizontal curve, and consecutively, the probability of noncompliance was calculated using these approaches. According to the obtained results, this study showed that radius enhancement increases the probability of noncompliance and the consistency level of the geometric design. Finally, the high values of the probability of noncompliance (failure) indicate that the geometric design guidelines need calibration in the design of horizontal curves, especially for higher radii.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":50259,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Advanced Transportation","volume":"2024 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1155/2024/4085522","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141967356","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}

This paper takes 20 logistics distribution centers as the research objects and uses economic factors, transportation factors, quality of distribution center business activities, and quality of customer service as the primary input indicators; selects eight indicators such as construction cost, transportation cost, labor cost, road facilities, accessibility, business demand, number of laborers, and customer satisfaction as the secondary input indicators; chooses distribution time and profit as the output indicators; and measures the static efficiency of logistics distribution centers from two perspectives, including the traditional unconstrained super-efficiency model and the truck- restricted conditions, using the super-efficiency model of data envelopment analysis (DEA). The Malmquist index model was used to measure the dynamic efficiency and change trend efficiency of the logistics distribution center, and a unified and comprehensive analysis was also made. The results of the case study show that the average efficiency of the logistics distribution center in the driving and nondriving restriction area is 0.872 and 0.914, respectively, and the average efficiency in the driving restriction area is about 4.5% lower than that of the nondriving restriction area, and variance is 1.58 times of the latter. Therefore, it can be concluded that the measures of truck driving restriction have an impact on the efficiency of the logistics distribution center, and the results of the super-efficiency model with the restriction constraint have a greater impact on the logistics efficiency of the logistics distribution center than the traditional unconstrained super-efficiency model.

This study presents a comprehensive analysis of significant commercial vehicle crashes in China over a nine-year period (2014–2022), exploring an extensive range of factors including driver behavior, road conditions, vehicle characteristics, and environmental aspects. Utilizing a hierarchical Bayesian ordered probit model that incorporates both categorical and random effects, the research offers nuanced insights into the probabilistic outcomes of fatal traffic crashes. The model’s hierarchical structure enables the exploration of unobserved heterogeneities at individual and group levels. Key findings indicate that driver’s behaviors like speeding and overloading significantly escalate the likelihood of fatal traffic crashes, particularly those resulting in 10 or more fatalities. The study also highlights the role of road class in fatal crashes, with primary and secondary roads being associated with higher risks of more severe fatal crashes. The analysis extends to the impact of vehicle type, noting a distinct increase in the probabilities of fatal crashes with passenger vehicles, while freight vehicles exhibit a more complex relationship with fatal crashes severity. The insights from this study underscore the urgent need for enhanced enforcement of speed limit and vehicle weight regulations, particularly through the deployment of advanced monitoring technologies on highways frequented by commercial vehicles, and targeted infrastructure improvements on primary and secondary roads.

As most C-ER Expresses are affected by frequent natural disasters and public health incidents, it faces the increasing risk of network vulnerability. When previous studies investigated the evolution of network vulnerability through local information, they often overlook the complexity of the network’s multidimensional characteristics. The nonlinear load-capacity (NLC) model proposed in this paper integrates local and global information of the network. This approach enables a detailed investigation into how condition thresholds and different types of nodes influence network vulnerability. Firstly, a feature matrix is constructed for C-ER Express based on the topological measures, freight information, and external environment scores. Then, the autoencoder is used to extract the low-dimensional dense information, and the DBSCAN is used to classify C-ER Express into distinct clusters. Secondly, The NLC model integrates feature coefficient to describe the initial capacity of nodes. Subsequently, the failure load is redistributed proportionally to neighboring nodes and remaining normal nodes based on time-varying load and initial capacity of nodes. Finally, the improved NLC model is applied to the C-ER Express under different simulation scenarios. Simulation results show that a reasonable condition threshold can mitigate the impact of small-scale node failures on the network. The DBSCAN attack strategy can effectively identify the node types and prevent the network from chain reactions brought by different types of node failures.
