During the dynamic driving process, classification of mental workload for drivers is a
complex task due to multiple factors, including human, vehicle, road, and the environment …

Increasing the use of electric vehicles (EVs) has been suggested as a possible method to
decrease fuel consumption and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in an effort to mitigate the …

Headway is a safety measure commonly used to investigate driving behaviour and driver
performance. Its purpose is to reflect the following distance or time between a leading and …

The target reliability is a design constraint that assures the required safety level for
structures. Derivation of the target reliability is a complicated and challenging task. To …

Reliability analysis is a probabilistic approach to determine a safety level of a system.
Reliability is defined as a probability of a system (or a structure, in structural engineering) to …

Fatigue is one of the most common types of distress in asphalt pavement due to traffic
loading. Pavements are steadily deteriorating from a long-term issue of cracking resulting in …

Several limit states function (LSF) should be considered for structural design to assure the
performance level of the structures. In AASHTO LRFD design specification, four kinds of the …

Nonrecurrent congestion on urban roads may cause overflow, possibly leading to gridlock at
intersections. Signal control is one of the most important measures to prevent such …

The severity of roadway departure crashes mainly depends on the roadside features,
including the sideslope, fixed-object density, offset from fixed objects, and shoulder width …

Target reliability is an essential design constrain for probabilistic-based design approaches.
The target reliability analysis requires a double optimization process concerning the trade …
