Spray and combustion characteristics of F-T diesel blending oxygenated fuel based on constant volume combustion chamber

In this work, 20% of polymethoxy dimethyl ether (PODE) and n-butanol are blended with F-T diesel by volume, respectively,referred to as FP20 and FBU20. Based on the constant volume combustion chamber...

Analysis of different road network safety analysis procedures

In 2019 the European Parliament updated Directive 2008/96/EC on road safety management. In the updated Directive, they introduced the concept of network-wide road safety assessment (NWRSA), which is...

Microsimulation and extreme value theory to assess the effect of varying levels of automated vehicles on crash risk

Per the society of automotive engineers (SAE), automated vehicles (AVs) are likely to penetrate the system via six levels of automation. This implies that AVs and human-driven vehicles (HDVs) will coexist...

Hydrothermal liquefaction of algae: A possible green alternative to petroleum-based bitumen-A review on wholly bio-based binders

This literature review examines 100% bio-based binders (bio-binder) derived from algal biomass as a sustainable alternative to petroleum-based bitumen in the pavement construction industry. The traditional...

Factors associated with travel speeds of young novice drivers: A systematic review

Young drivers are over-represented in crashes involving excess speed, with driving inexperience a known contributing factor, but not always accounted for in research investigations. This project aimed...

This research investigates the model and solution techniques of the quantity adjustment user equilibrium link capacitated traffic assignment problem (QUE-CTAP) to provide more realistic traffic assignment...

A review of key technologies for integration of electric vehicle-charging station-transportation network-grid based on bibliometric analysis

Electric vehicles (EVs) are instrumental in balancing the operation of the transportation networks and grids for the dual attribute of power and traffic load. Current research community has gained significant...

A novel approach for accelerated and accurate spatial conflation of connected vehicle data on GPUs and its application to real-time statewide traffic state estimation

There is a growing desire among transportation agencies to consider augmenting traditional traffic data collection with high-resolution data streaming directly from vehicles connected to the internet....

Crystallization-induced clogging in tunnel drainage systems: Mechan isms, prevention, treatment, and case studies

Extensive studies have been conducted worldwide on crystallization clogging in tunnel drainage systems, yielding a series of important findings. This paper systematically reviews the research progress...

Experimental investigation on characterization of solid soot particle emissions using in-situ developed thermal desorption system from reactivity-controlled compression ignition engine

This study experimentally investigates the solid soot particle number emissions from the gasoline-diesel (GD) and CNG-diesel reactivity-controlled compression ignition (RCCI) engines. The volatile organic...

Potential application of jet 3D printing technology for crack repair on asphalt pavement

To clarify the key points and direction of injection 3D printing technology for repairing pavement cracks, the types and repair methods of common pavement cracks are summarized, and the characteristics...

Hierarchical applications of brick-concrete construction and demolition waste: From concrete/mortar to pavement engineering and pollutant adsorption

Escalating urbanization has led to a surge in construction and demolition (C&D) waste, with the construction industry being a major contributor to global material consumption and landfill burdens. Applications...

Modeling pedestrian-vehicle interactions at unsignalized mid-block crosswalk under automated vehicle mixed traffic flow conditions: An agent-based approach

The introduction of automated vehicles (AVs) is expected to improve the safety and traffic efficiency of the transportation system. However, the impacts of AVs on pedestrian-vehicle interactions (PVIs)...

A spatial multi-criteria approach to support the participatory design of a network for e-scooters

Micromobility and, in particular, e-scooter adoption, is rapidly spreading worldwide as an effective transport mode for short trips and for the last-mile to transit access. However, the pace of growth...
