• Optimizing Freeway Merge Operations under Conventional and Automated Vehicle Traffic

  Journal of Transportation Engineering Part A Systems · 2020 · 29 citations

  This paper presents an optimization algorithm for freeway operations at merge zones that maximizes the average speed of the segment in the presence of connected and automated vehicles (CAVs) and human-operated (i.e., conventional) vehicles. This research assumes that CAVs have the capability to communicate with each other and with the infrastructure and to execute the recommended trajectories. The proposed system receives arrival information as input and generates optimal trajectories for CAVs w…

• Integrated corridor management by cooperative traffic signal and ramp metering control

  Computer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering · 2024-04-16 · 12 citations

  articleOpen accessSenior author

  This paper formulates a cooperative traffic control methodology that integrates traffic signal timing and ramp metering decisions into an optimization model to improve traffic operations in a corridor network. A mixed integer linear model is formulated and is solved in real time within a model predictive controller framework, where the cell transmission model is used as the system state predictor. The methodology is benchmarked in a case study corridor in San Mateo, CA, in VISSIM with two optimi…

• Exploratory Driving Performance and Car-Following Modeling for Autonomous Shuttles Based on Field Data

  IEEE Transactions on Intelligent Transportation Systems · 2025-04-09 · 3 citations

  articleSenior author

  Autonomous shuttles (AS) operate in several cities and have shown potential to improve the public transport network. However, there is no car-following model that is based on field data and allows decision-makers (planners, and traffic engineers) to assess and plan for AS operations. To fill this gap, this study collected field data from AS operations, analyzed their driving performance, and suggested changes in the AS trajectory model to improve passenger comfort. A sample was collected with ov…
