Application of Tools of Quality Function Deployment and Modified Balanced Scorecard for Optimal Allocation of Pavement Management Resources
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. (IEEE)
, 2020 , Article)
Pavement management is a set of tools used to evaluate and maintain pavements so that the pavements can be used safely and effectively over a certain period. Many traditional methods were and are still being used by entities ...
Development of a stacked machine learning model to compute the capability of ZnO-based sensors for hydrogen detection
(
Elsevier
, 2024 , Article)
Zinc oxide (ZnO) nanocomposite sensors decorated with various dopants are popular tools for detecting even low hydrogen (H2) concentrations. The nanocomposite's chemistry, temperature, and H2 concentration impact the success ...

Tortuosity is a parameter that plays a significant role in the characterization of complex porous media systems and it has a significant impact on many engineering and environmental processes and applications. Flow in ...
Evaluation of Transit Signal Priority Implementation for Bus Transit along a Major Arterial Using Microsimulation
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Transit Signal Priority (TSP) provides preferential treatment for public transit vehicles at signalized intersections when implemented. TSP is usually provided by interrupting the typical signal timings and extending the ...
Investigation of Weather Impacts on Pedestrian Volumes
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
This study investigates the impacts of temporal and weather characteristics on pedestrian volumes in a hot climate condition. A major neighborhood located in an urban area in Doha, Qatar was chosen as a case study site. ...
A comparison of ground vibration due to ballasted and slab tracks
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2019 , Article)
With the development of non-ballasted track forms (often referred to as slab tracks) over the few last decades, it is important to understand their behaviour with respect to ground-borne vibration compared with the traditional ...
Literature Review of Advancements in Adaptive Ramp Metering
(
Elsevier
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Over a period spanning more than 30 years, several ramp metering algorithms have been developed to improve the operation of freeways. Many of these algorithms were deployed in several regions of the world, and field ...
