A Machine Learning-Based Framework for Urban Traffic Congestion Prediction and Control Using Intelligent Transportation Systems
Abstract: Abstract Traffic congestion remains a critical challenge in rapidly expanding urban areas, causing increased travel delays, excessive fuel consumption, environmental degradation, and economic inefficiencies. Traditional traffic management approaches are often insufficient, as they lack the ability to respond dynamically to continuously changing traffic conditions. This study proposes a novel data-driven framework for the prediction and management of traffic congestion using Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS). The methodology integrates real-time and historical …

Fast Lanes by Design: Quantifying RFID Electronic Tolling Impacts on Plaza Halt Times in Highway
Abstract: Abstract—Rapid urban growth and the steady rise in the number of vehicles have made congestion at highway toll plazas a persistent and costly problem. Long queues at toll booths not only waste travelers’ time but also increase fuel consumption, air pollution, and overall operating costs of the transport system. Traditional manual toll collection methods contribute significantly to these delays, as vehicles are required to stop for cash or card-based transactions. …

Analyze Effect Of Skew Angle On Performance of R.C Girder Bridge Deck
Abstract: Abstract - The performance of reinforced c oncrete (R.C) girder bridge decks is significantly influenced by geometric configurations, among which the skew angle plays a critical role. Skewed bridges are commonly employed to accommodate site constraints, road alignment, and river crossings, but they introduce complex stress distributions, torsional effects, and differential deflections compared to straight bridges. This study investigates the effect of varying skew angles on the structural behavior of …

Literature Review on Overcoming Graphene Dispersion Challenges in Ultra High Performance Concrete: A Review of Self-Dispersion and Bio-Polymer Encapsulation Strategies
Abstract: Abstract—Ultra-High-Performance Concrete (UHPC) is a new generation of cement-based material because of its higher compressive and tensile strength, increased durability, and higher resistance to environmental degradation. However, UHPC undergoes microcracking when subjected to mechanical and thermal loading, which can jeopardize the long-term performance of the structure, decrease service life, and cause expensive maintenance. Traditional solutions to enhance UHPC durability are centered on material densification and fiber strengthening, while these treatments …
