Optimization of Vehicle Trajectories Considering Uncertainty in Actuated Traffic Signal Timings
Amr Shafik, Seifeldeen Eteifa, Hesham Rakha
This paper introduces a robust optimal green light speed advisory system for fixed and actuated traffic signals when a probability distribution is provided. These distributions rep…
Sliding Mode Network Perimeter Control
Youssef Bichiou, Maha Elouni, Hossam M. Abdelghaffar +1
Urban traffic congestion is a chronic problem faced by many cities in the US and worldwide. It results in inefficient infrastructure use as well as increased vehicle fuel consumpti…
Vehicle Platooning Impact on Drag Coefficients and Energy/Fuel Saving Implications
Ahmed A. Hussein, Hesham A. Rakha
In this paper, empirical data from the literature are used to develop general power models that capture the impact of a vehicle position, in a platoon of homogeneous vehicles, and…
Real-time Estimation of Vehicle Counts on Signalized Intersection Approaches Using Probe Vehicle Data
Mohammad A. Aljamal, Hossam M. Abdelghaffar, Hesham A. Rakha
This paper presents a novel method for estimating the number of vehicles traveling along signalized approaches using probe vehicle data only. The proposed method uses the Kalman Fi…
Eco-Driving at Signalized Intersections: A Multiple Signal Optimization Approach
Hao Yang, Fawaz Almutairi, Hesham A. Rakha
Consecutive traffic signalized intersections can increase vehicle stops, producing vehicle accelerations on arterial roads and potentially increasing vehicle fuel consumption level…
