  • Bus accessibility for persons with sensory disabilities

    Creator:
    Hron, Martha
    Abstract:
    With the passage of the American with Disabilities Act (ADA) it has become a civil rights violation to deny access to persons with disabilities to public transportation. The ADA requires transit agencies to provide accessible buses or equivalent services to persons with mobility, sensory or cognitive impairments. This study examines...

  • A validation of the Oregon State University driving simulator

    Creator:
    Brown, Lacy S.
    Abstract:
    Driving simulation is widely accepted as a safe, effective, and economical alternative for investigating driver behavior in a variety of contexts. However, in order to apply simulator-based research results to real-world settings, the performance measures acquired through simulated driving experiments must first be validated. This research was aimed at validating...

  • Determination of structural layer properties of aggregate and asphalt surfaced roads

    Creator:
    Rwebangira, T.
    Abstract:
    This study involved the determination of the structural layer properties of aggregate and asphalt surfaced pavements for use in the evaluation of pavement load carrying capacity and the seasonal effects of moisture. This was achieved by the use of Nondestructive Testing Methods (NDT) and backcalculation techniques. Pavement surface deflection measurements...

  • Development of a mechanistic overlay design procedure for flexible pavements

    Creator:
    Zhou, Haiping
    Abstract:
    This dissertation describes the development of a mechanistic overlay design procedure. The mechanistic analysis represents a new trend in both new pavement and overlay design. The greatest advantage of the mechanistic pavement analysis is that it considers the fundamental characteristics of materials to be used, is capable of considering changes...

  • Cross-section fatal crash type prediction models

    Creator:
    Zhu, Hong
    Abstract:
    The rural two-lane highway in the southeastern United States is frequently associated with a disproportionate number of serious and fatal crashes. The major research objectives are to investigate the relations between probabilities of fatal crash type occurrence and potential contributing factors from road geometric design characteristics and roadside, environmental features....
