Observational Study of Buffered Bike Lane Design Implementation of Roadway Bicycling in Portland, Oregon

Creator:: Rios, Elizabeth A.
Abstract:: Bicyclists are one of the highest and most vulnerable road users. This is due to the higher likelihood of being seriously injured when involved in a crash. This research seeks to understand two different behavioral interactions of an implemented facility user: the motorist (secondary user) and bicyclist (primary user). The...

Developing safety performance functions for 4-leg single-lane roundabouts based on Oregon data : a case study

Creator:: Zheng, Jianfei
Abstract:: Roundabouts have become an alternative for traditional intersections due to the safer operational performance. Previous research has provided crash modification factors (CMFs) as a criterion based on before-after studies as to evaluate the safety performance of roundabouts. One drawback of assessment based on crash modification factors, however, is that a...

Evaluation of estuarine channel conditions in Coos Bay, Oregon using side-scan sonar

Creator:: Hartman, Gregory L.
Abstract:: Side-scan sonar records in Oregon's Coos Bay estuary navigation channels were obtained at intervals of two to three months during the November 1974 - October 1975 time period from Coos Bay Channel Mile 11+50 to 15+20, and from a reach in the Marshfield Channel. A limited side-scan survey effort was...

Using the predictive method in the 2010 Highway Safety Manual to identify hazardous intersections in Corvallis, OR

Creator:: Zhou, Yanfen
Abstract:: An intersection, due to its vehicle and pedestrian conflict movements, experiences complex traffic situations that might contribute to crashes. In the city of Corvallis, OR, historically more than 80% of the total crashes have occurred within an intersection or have been designated as intersection-related. It is important to develop a...

Transportation Infrastructure to Support Bicycling in Dense Urban Environments : Design and Operational Considerations for Bicycle Lanes in Proximity to Commercial Vehicle Loading Zones

Creator:: Ghodrat Abadi, Masoud
Abstract:: While sophisticated plans have been adopted nationally and globally to increase bicycling’s share of daily commutes, safety concerns have negatively impacted targeted bicycling growth. Specifically, truck traffic plays a pivotal role in bicyclists’ perceptions of safety and comfort, because of the severe consequences of bicycle-truck collisions. Several types of engineering...

Developing an analysis framework to compare commuter rail service and bus service in the Mid-Willamette Valley in Oregon

Creator:: Roholt, Ian M.
Abstract:: This thesis develops a framework for analyzing the application of commuter rail and bus services between several small urban centers to enhance overall connectivity. The study includes analyzing specific performance criteria for commuter rail service and express bus service based on data from existing systems around the U.S. The study...

Pedestrian safety at signalized intersections operating the flashing yellow arrow

Creator:: Tuss, Halston
Abstract:: At signalized intersections, pedestrians are considered to be amongst the most vulnerable. When in the crosswalk at intersections without protected left-turn phasing, pedestrians are particularly at risk from left-turning vehicles. Until recently, a wide variety of indications were in use across the US to indicate a permissive left-turn condition to...

Analysis of spatial data from terrain models for landslide predictive mapping

Creator:: Santha, Rubini
Abstract:: Landslides are a pervasive hazard that can result in substantial damage to properties and loss of life throughout the world. To understand the nature and scope of the hazard, landslide hazard mapping has been an area of intense research by identifying areas most susceptible to landslides in order to mitigate...

Stream Temperature Modeling for Marys River Watershed

Creator:: Mustafa, Mamoon
Abstract:: High water temperatures in rivers have detrimental effects on riverine water quality and ecology. In this study, two river temperature models, within the agricultural watershed model Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT), were investigated for their ability to simulate water temperatures accurately throughout the year. The original temperature model within...
