While most eco-routing research has focused on reducing energy consumption and travel time, the safety aspect of route choice is currently neglected. In this paper, a multi-objective optimization methodology is formulated to concurrently minimize fuel consumption, travel time and safety risk, which is quantified using a novel methodology based on network-level safety measures. The proposed optimization framework provides a transparent way to intuitively include driver preferences via “budgets” for time, fuel consumption and safety – which represent the driver’s willingness to sacrifice these factors for fuel consumption improvements. The performance of the proposed method was tested on urban road networks in Brisbane-Australia, with a rear-end collision risk model as the safety measure. The results demonstrate that eco-routing with safety considerations has the potential to improve fuel efficiency while simultaneously reducing safety risks.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":54792,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Intelligent Transportation Systems","volume":"28 3","pages":"Pages 283-296"},"PeriodicalIF":3.6,"publicationDate":"2024-05-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78027022","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this manuscript, we focus on the Operational Design Domain (ODD) problem of two-lane highways, i.e., under what traffic conditions should an ATMA be deployed. Due to the dramatic speed difference between ATMA vehicles and general vehicles, a queue will be formed, leading to a percent-time-spent-following (PTSF) increase during maintenance. General vehicles in the queue will assess a gap on the opposite lane to perform a passing maneuver, which is broken down into multi-stage merging behavior. As such, an analytical model is first made, based on queuing theory in which the arrival rate and service rate are analyzed to estimate the PTSF. In this way, the linkage between annual average daily traffic (AADT) and level of service (LOS) is analytically established. Then, the proposed model is validated by comparing the estimated PTSF with that of the Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) values. The comparison results show that the mean error is 9.58%, and the mean absolute error is 12.36%, which demonstrate that the developed model is able to generate satisfactory results when compared with the HCM model. Numeric analysis also shows that roadway performance is sensitive to the K factor and D factor, as well as the operating speed of an ATMA. If LOS = C is a desirable design objective, a good AADT threshold to use would be around 11,000 vehicles per day.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":54792,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Intelligent Transportation Systems","volume":"28 3","pages":"Pages 372-385"},"PeriodicalIF":3.6,"publicationDate":"2024-05-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78862430","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A model-based traffic state prediction approach based on a stochastic microscopic three-phase model is developed to predict traffic flow, speed, and travel time in short prediction horizons consisting of multiple time steps ahead. The proposed model utilizes connected vehicles’ trajectory data including location and speed information and fuses this information with detector measurements using an Adaptive Kalman filter. Stochastic driver behaviors in merging, lane-changing, and over-acceleration are considered in the three-phase microscopic model, which allows for a precise prediction of macroscopic parameters for a relatively long stretch of freeway. Traffic flow and speed predictions are conducted for each lane individually and, for a whole segment. Per-lane predictions provide valuable information regarding different speed fluctuations in each lane for identifying congestion and applying proactive freeway controls. Predicted traffic parameters are used for tracking and predicting the spatial-temporal traffic patterns in real-time. The accuracy of the proposed model is examined and validated for various penetration rates of connected vehicles and prediction horizons and outperforms the baseline prediction methods.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":54792,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Intelligent Transportation Systems","volume":"28 3","pages":"Pages 313-339"},"PeriodicalIF":3.6,"publicationDate":"2024-05-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74454901","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Conditionally automated driving (CAD) affects drivers’ drowsiness. We conducted a simulator study with 30 participants (every ten subjects in morning group, afternoon group, and evening group) to investigate the effect of circadian rhythm on the changes in drivers’ drowsiness and performance in different driving modes. Each subject was required to complete CAD experiment first and MD experiment later, and experienced 8 risk scenarios in each experiment. The self-reported Karolinska Sleepiness Scale (KSS) was recorded by an investigator every time when the subject drove past the scenario as the drowsiness measurement. The speed, acceleration, time-related metrics, and vehicle lane position were collected as the performance measurements. KSS data were statistically analyzed, and the Spearman’s Rho test was used to confirm the correlation among performance measurements, KSS, and scenarios. The result of the KSS statistical analysis showed that the effect of circadian rhythm on fatigue in MD groups is consistent with the previous studies, but the existence of CAD changes the effect of the circadian rhythm. Compared with the MD, CAD slowed down the drowsiness growth rate in the morning group and promoted the drowsiness growth rate in the evening group. The brake input rate, mean longitude acceleration, max Standard Deviation of Lane Position (SDLP), and the time to pass (TTP) were significantly related to the driver´s drowsiness in both driving modes.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":54792,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Intelligent Transportation Systems","volume":"28 3","pages":"Pages 340-351"},"PeriodicalIF":3.6,"publicationDate":"2024-05-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85896125","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
