Freight transportation network is an essential backbone for supporting the industrial
activities and economic developments of the nation and global trade. In this paper, we …

Critical links have the characteristics of carrying large traffic flow and quickly affecting the
operational performance of the road network. Existing regional traffic congestion …

Given the unpredictable nature of transportation networks, a strategic disaster evacuation
plan involving taking detours, which avoids congested and less connected links, is of …

Due to the lack of ground truth on the link criticality rankings of transportation networks, it is
not possible to identify the most accurate metric. While several studies provide reviews of the …

This paper proposes a new class of extreme value distribution called compound generalized
extreme value (CGEV) distribution for investigating the effects of monthly and seasonal …

Criticality serves as a foundational concept in the evaluation of the impact of disruptive
events on the operation of road networks supporting the identification of road links whose …

Maintaining safety and resilience in transportation system requires identification of critical
components. The existing transportation link criticality metrics typically require multiple traffic …

With the rising travel demand of crowds, urban road networks are under increasing
pressure, which makes them progressively more fragile. Accurate identification of critical …

The traditional full-scan method is commonly used for identifying critical links in road
networks. This method simulates each link to be closed iteratively and measures its impact …

Extreme events, such as disasters and severe road accidents, have frequently happened in
recent years, threatening thousands of people's lives. Efficient evacuation after extreme …
