Creator:: Barlow, Zachary W.
Abstract:: Unmanned aerial systems (UASs), more commonly known as drones, have recently achieved commercial success for many public and private applications. As with all emerging technologies, new safety concerns and conflicts with existing paradigms are likely to arise. Many potential applications of UASs will result in their operation near roadway infrastructure,...

Creator:: Mohammed, Hameed A.
Abstract:: Dilemma zones on the approach to high-speed signalized intersections have been identified as a safety problem that can contribute to rear–end and right–angle crashes. However, in situations when a pair of vehicles is caught in the dilemma zone, it is not well understood how the following vehicle’s headway and classification...

Creator:: Liu, Yujun
Abstract:: As e-commerce and urban deliveries spike, there is an increasing demand for curbside loading/unloading space. However, commercial vehicle drivers face numerous challenges while navigating dense urban road networks. Previous literature on the topic of how commercial vehicle drivers make choices about when and where to park is scarce, and data...

Creator:: Chai, Eileen Pei Ying
Abstract:: It is considered best practice when designing pedestrian access at intersections to provide two curb ramps at each street corner. In Oregon, there are many locations where long ramp runs cause curb ramps to be set back a significant distance from the apex of the intersection corner to meet this...

Creator:: Chand, Cadell Y.
Abstract:: Autonomous vehicles (AVs) at varying market penetrations will change traffic flow and highway performance. At AV market penetrations between 0% and 100%, human driven vehicles (HVs) will be interacting with AVs. However, little is known about how HVs interact with AVs. This study attempts to quantify HV headways when following...

Creator:: Woodside, Jasmin Barnes
Abstract:: Previous research has found some bicyclists disregard circular red indications and stop signs. Possible justifications include a desire to increase safety, save energy, save time, and increase visibility. Because of this, many bicyclists feel as though stopping at stop signs, especially in the absence of conflicting vehicular traffic, is an...

Creator:: Jashami, Hisham
Abstract:: Accommodating motor vehicles that are turning (left or right) at signalized intersections requires a careful understanding of the safety and efficiency of design and operational variables. Turning vehicles are the primary collision risk for non-motorized road users at signalized intersections. When turning movements need to be controlled, proper driver response...

Creator:: Cobb, Douglas P.
Abstract:: Travel demand has increased due to population growth, increase of vehicle ownership, and development patterns resulting in greater levels of congestion, pollution, and crash frequency. One approach to demand management is to increase the share of trips made by bicycles. With the increase in bicycling rates, there is a critical...
