METHODOLOGY This study explored four delivery methods: direct drone deliveries from a depot (DD), drone deliveries from stationary trucks (STD), deliveries from moving trucks (MTD), and traditional…

METHODOLOGY In this study, data was collected from the POV Health and Safety and Operations teams through quarterly surveillance audits of terminal activities. Two types of turn times were measured:…

METHODOLOGY The communications system upgrades outlined in this study included radio replacement within the transit vehicles, on-board computer equipment installation, and the utilization of Multi-…

METHODOLOGY The study used the matched case-control method (each case is paired with a control based on matching characteristics) to investigate the impacts of lighting patterns on nighttime…

METHODOLOGY This study evaluated the impacts of 100 percent CAV penetration on travel times and vehicle delays, applying the German Highway Capacity Manual's delay-flow relations and updating them…

METHODOLOGY The study used the pre-trained surrogate model to determine the optimal platooning configuration to minimize fuel consumption under different wind scenarios. The performances of four…

METHODOLOGY In this study, taxi operating costs were computed following the methodology from another research study from 2018, where the operating costs of taxis both with and without ride sharing…

METHODOLOGY The study used a computer programming software tool to carry out an experiment and test the UAV routing model and GA with two restrictions: 1) deliveries are assumed to be completed…

METHODOLOGY The four solutions chosen for detailed feasibility analyses were: (i) off-site parking and staging, (ii) off-site parking and staging combined with a “virtual gate” where some terminal…

METHODOLOGY The LA Express Park program relied heavily on hardware, including parking meters, guidance systems, in-ground sensors, and a highly integrated back-end system that utilized strong data…
