• Passing sight distance: adequacy of aashto criteria for two lane roads in Sri Lanka 

  Masakorala, R; Mampearachchi, WK [Conference-Abstract]

  Freedom of overtaking maneuvers on a two-lane highway indicates the Level of Service of that particular highway according to the Highway Capacity Manual, 2010. Therefore, an adequate minimum Passing Sight Distance (PSD) ...
• Development of speed prediction model for horizontal curves under mixed traffic conditions 

  Sil, G; Maji, A [Conference-Abstract]

  Speed is one of the well-known causes for crash. Radius of horizontal curve significantly affects vehicle speed. Drivers unable to manage speed within a curve can get into accident. The fatal crash rate in horizontal ...
• Application of fuzzy regression methodology in transportation engineering 

  Marisamynathan, S; Vedagiri, P [Conference-Abstract]

  Signalized intersection is one of the vital components of the entire road network. The operational conditions of intersections considerably affect the performance of the whole road network system. The performance level ...
• Development of guidelines for traffic signal coordination for intersection clusters 

  Jayasooriya, NK; Bandara, JMSJ [Conference-Abstract]

  With the ever-increasing traffic congestion, it is needed to initiate sustainable traffic management solutions. There is a need to establish signal design standards taking in to account the latest trends in traffic signal ...
• Influence of nanoclay and carbon nano tube on high temperature performance grade and rutting performance of asphalt binder 

  Ashish, PK; Singh, D [Conference-Abstract]

  The present study evaluated effects of nanoclay and Carbon Nano Tube (CNT) on high temperature Performance Grade (PG) and rutting performance of asphalt binder using Superpave rutting parameter and Multiple Stress Creep ...
• Development of urban road maintenance management system using distress models of hdm-4 

  Tanuj, C; Sahil, K; Manoranjan, P; Naveen, K [Conference-Abstract]

  Pavement maintenance management systems are to be developed for the urban road networks for low to medium size cities in India. The study shows the results of progression of roughness of a major secondary road of a Patiala ...
• Investigation of marshal] characteristics & durability of glass powder incorporated dense-graded asphalt 

  Choudhary, J; Kumar, B; Gupta, A [Conference-Abstract]

  Asphalt concrete is one the most widely used paving mix and its durability is a key issue with regaids to long term pavement performance. The Cantabro durability test is one of the most practical and implementable test ...
• Modelling pedestrian crossing behavior through social force model 

  Siddharth, SMP; Perumal, V [Conference-Abstract]

  Social force model (SFM), a microscopic model, is an effective method in modeling pedestrian walking behavior. Social force model assumes that the walking behavior of pedestrian is influenced by a series of forces. ...
• Development of logit model for estimating helmet usage in developing countries 

  Marisamynathan, S; Vedagiri, P; Gupta, S [Conference-Abstract]

  In Mumbai, one of the major cities in India, the total number of accidents including fatal, serious, slight and minor road accidents has risen by 766 cases in 2015 as compared to the previous year. The year 2015 has ...
• Evolution of road user charging and its future 

  Perera, L; Thompson, RG [Conference-Abstract]

  Road user charging (RUC) has a long history as a mechanism to recover infrastructure maintenance and capital costs. The range of fees and charges include: import taxes, fees, registration, stamp duty, direct toll charges, ...
• Traffic speed limit modeling using support vector regression and firefly algorithm 

  Maheshwari, S; Singh, D; Zaman, M; White, L [Conference-Abstract]

  Setting traffic speed limits using engineering approaches is highly desirable, however, spot studies required for such approaches are tedious, subjective and time consuming, in the present study, 85 percentile speeds ...
• Effects of wax based wma additive on laboratory performance of polymer modified binder 

  Kataware, AV; Singh, D [Conference-Abstract]

  Hot mix asphalt concrete (HMA) is being widely used to construct flexible pavements. The HMA technology requires temperature in range of 150 to 190"C, which could cause many environmental and health issues. Moreover, ...
• Angularity of fine aggregates using digital image technique and conventional approach 

  Rajan, B; Singh, D; Garg, G [Conference-Abstract]

  Fine aggregates are one of prime constitute in asphalt mix design. However, the effect of fine a8SreSale morphology (angularity) on asphalt mixtures behaviour is well recognized in literature. For example, the excessive ...
• Analysis of driver’s stop/go behavior at the yellow onset under mixed traffic conditions 

  Pathivada, BK; Vedagiri, P [Conference-Abstract]

  When signal changes from green to yellow at a signalized intersection, often drivers are caught in two minds, whether to cross the intersection or stop at the stop line. Which might lead to right angle collision or rear ...
• Modeling acceleration characteristics of motorized three-wheeler 

  Pathivada, BK; Vedagiri, P [Conference-Abstract]

  Modeling acceleration characteristics of vehicles is one of the important aspect in traffic engineering which has a significant impact on various design elements such as Length of acceleration lanes, ramp way design, ...
• Advanced tool for accurate pavement distress measurement and evaluations 

  Ahmed, S; Vedagiri, P; Rao, KVK [Conference-Abstract]
