Innovative technologies can be used as a means to promote sustainable and inclusive urban development. These technolgies include the deployment of the internet of things (IoT), artificial intelligence (AI), energy management, and smart transportation. In a smart city, intelligent transportation systems ITSs play a vital role in efficient traffic management. This paper explores the use of hybrid AI techniques for predicting short-term traffic flow data from M25 motorways in the UK. Since volume traffic flow data are non-stationary, wavelet transform (WT), as a powerful signal analyzer, is applied to signal decomposition for the elimination of redundant data from input matrices. The feature selection method based on the Gram-Schmidt (GS) orthogonalization process is used for the selection of more valuable features. The elimination of redundant data can speed up the learning process and improve the generalisation capability of the prediction models. After a pre-processing stage, a wavelet neural network (WNN) with a simple structure is applied as a powerful prediction tool. Two separate structures are considered for the prediction of weekday and weekend traffic volume data. The experiments explore that the debauchies-4 (db4) wavelet function with 7 decomposition levels leads to the best detection accuracy. Moreover, factors such as the range of forecasting, the type of the day, and the level of decomposition all have an impact on prediction stability. Compared with existing prediction methods, the proposed approach produces lower values of root mean square error (RMSE) and mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) for all step-horizons analyzed. These findings provide valuable implications and insights into the development of an efficient and reliable road condition monitoring system for delivering secure and sustainable transportation services.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":52282,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Transportation Science and Technology","volume":"17 ","pages":"Pages 21-38"},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2025-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139829934","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The deformation and mechanical properties of liquid soil and conventional soil under load are comprehensively compared and analyzed via a numerical simulation with finite element software. The effects of the buried depth of overlying fill, tunnel height, and traffic load on the backfilling of liquid soil abutment are analyzed. The research results show that under the action of load, the overall deformation and stress distribution of the liquid soil and conventional soil show similar laws. However, liquid soil backfilling has great advantages over conventional soil backfilling in all aspects. Liquid soil backfilling can reduce the deformation and the compressive stress at the corner of the backfilling area by approximately 13% and 15%, respectively. The overburden buried depth has a great impact on the subgrade deformation. In the actual construction, the overburden buried depth should be 1.5 m. The overburden depth has a greater impact on the vertical deformation of the road, and the self-weight of the overburden will act as an additional load on the overall roadbed, compared with conventional soil backfill. The overburden depth of 2.0 m conventional soil backfill is about equal to the overburden depth of 1.5 m liquid soil backfill. The use of liquid soil backfill is equivalent to the use of the overburden fill in reducing the additional load of 0.5 m. The height of the box culvert has a greater impact on the stress, but this change is not linear. The actual construction in the case of meeting the specific requirements of use should try to control in the vicinity of 8.4 m, and at the same time the use of liquid soil backfill can reduce the compressive stress of about 14%. The compressive stress increases first and then decreases with the increase in the liquid soil modulus. The liquid soil modulus should be controlled to 180 MPa. Moreover, liquid soil backfilling can reduce the compressive stress in the backfilling area by approximately 25%. The trapezoidal slope of the backfill area is proportional to the deformation amount. Although an obvious correlation with compressive stress exists, the regularity is not strong. Thus, the trapezoidal slope should be set to 1:1 during construction.

One of the representative scenarios is that vehicular flow is interrupted by roadside crossing obstacles such as pedestrians or cyclists. Since such interruption makes vehicles stop and go more frequently and creates random and complex traffic conflict, it has become a critical factor that can affect the driving performance of AVs. Therefore, this paper proposes a uniform traffic model (Pre_IDM+) to include roadside crossing impact in traffic flow analysis. The classical intelligent driving model (IDM) is extended into an obstacle-avoiding case, in which a novel pre-reaction workflow is introduced to describe yielding behavior and generate a reasonable braking trajectory. A real mixed traffic data near an un-signalized mid-block crosswalk is used to calibrate Pre_IDM+ and an accordingly microscope mixed traffic simulation platform is constructed. The simulation results show that discreet AVs can greatly avoid hard braking (−83.61%) and slightly improve passing speed (+5.11%) compared with MVs, while competitive AVs can maximize traffic efficiency (+7.03%) but will also deteriorate driving smoothness and comfort (−31.66%). Maintaining a sparse distribution of crossing sites along the road may contribute more to traffic stability and driving continuity compared with gathering all obstacles crossing at one location. This paper may help better understand the impact of AVs on general intermitted flow and give a reference to mixed traffic modeling towards a complex road condition.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":52282,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Transportation Science and Technology","volume":"17 ","pages":"Pages 375-391"},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2025-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141847683","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper focuses on designing holiday timetables of the first service period for the metro network that connects to an IR station, aiming to enhance multimodal collaboration with IR timetables while ensuring seamless coordination among various metro lines at the network level. A bi-objective model is proposed to maximize the temporal availability of metro network and minimize transfer waiting times for IR passengers traveling in early morning. To solve the model, an improved artificial bee colony algorithm (ABC) is designed, incorporating adaptive neighbour search and simulated annealing techniques. The effectiveness of the model and algorithm is verified using the Shanghai metro network and Hongqiao Railway Station. Results indicate a 9.46% increase in the temporal availability of metro network for IR passengers, coupled with a 9.68% reduction in passenger transfer waiting times. Notably, the study reveals that solely advancing operations of the IR-connected metro lines is inefficient. Instead, optimizing train timetables for the entire metro network proves to be a cost-effective approach to enhancing the overall service level of early-morning operations.
