Title: Modeling of sedimentation processes in closed-end canals.
Creator: Li, Lin, Florida Atlantic University, Scarlatos, Panagiotis (Pete) D., College of Engineering and Computer Science, Department of Ocean and Mechanical Engineering
Abstract/Description: Due to the fact that most of closed-end canals are protected from high energy inputs, these canals tend to act as sediment traps. Accumulation of deposited material creates navigational and flood problems. Shoaling in closed-end canals is caused mostly by fine sediments. The behavior of fine sediments can be quantitatively described by means of a mass balance equation. More specifically, the advection-dispersion equation including proper sink/source terms can be used. The sink/source terms...
Show moreDue to the fact that most of closed-end canals are protected from high energy inputs, these canals tend to act as sediment traps. Accumulation of deposited material creates navigational and flood problems. Shoaling in closed-end canals is caused mostly by fine sediments. The behavior of fine sediments can be quantitatively described by means of a mass balance equation. More specifically, the advection-dispersion equation including proper sink/source terms can be used. The sink/source terms represent the processes of deposition and erosion respectively. The purpose of this thesis is to develop analytical solutions of the unsteady advection-dispersion equation as applied to free surface closed-end canals. Solutions are obtained under various initial and boundary conditions, by using the finite transformation analysis. The simulation results are validated against laboratory data.

Title: STEADY STATE TRANSPORT WITH ISOENERGETIC AND NEUTRINO-ELECTRON SCATTERING.
Creator: BALLESTER, JORGE LUIS., Florida Atlantic University, Bruenn, Stephen W.
Abstract/Description: Steady state solutions to the Boltzmann transport equation were obtained for the transport of neutrinos across a finite, plane parallel slab using discrete ordinate methods. Semi-analytic solutions were obtained in the case of isoenergetic, isotropic scattering for one energy group and in the restricted case of isoenergetic and nonisoenergetic (Compton), isotropic scattering between two energy groups where the isoenergetic and the Compton scattering rates are the same for the two groups. For...
Show moreSteady state solutions to the Boltzmann transport equation were obtained for the transport of neutrinos across a finite, plane parallel slab using discrete ordinate methods. Semi-analytic solutions were obtained in the case of isoenergetic, isotropic scattering for one energy group and in the restricted case of isoenergetic and nonisoenergetic (Compton), isotropic scattering between two energy groups where the isoenergetic and the Compton scattering rates are the same for the two groups. For these two cases solutions were obtained for total optical thicknesses of 0.2, 2, and 20. When the Compton scattering rates of the two energy groups are allowed to be different, the transport equation becomes nonlinear due to the exclusion principle. For this case a numerical scheme was developed which yielded solutions for slabs having optical thicknesses up to unity.

Show moreFreight transportation is a significant component of the nation’s economy. However, the augmented volume of the freight movements contributed to continuously increasing congestion on the urban road networks, that affects the timeliness and reliability of freight transportation. In addition, congestion has a negative impact on the transit operations as well. Various studies conducted on multi-modal corridors recognized the importance of the simultaneous performance of freight and transit operations. Thus, Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) components, such as Freight Signal Priority (FSP) and Transit Signal Priority (TSP), present traffic operations strategies "shaped" to give priority, reduce delay and travel time, and overall improve the performance of freight and transit movements, respectively. The primary objective of the thesis refers to evaluate possible improvements in freight mobility, while sustaining good transit services and minimizing congestion on the multi-modal corridor, through simultaneous implementation of the FSP and the TSP. The effectiveness of the newly established criteria was evaluated through real-world case study on a micro-simulation platform. The results showed significant improvements on all the vehicle movements.

Abstract/Description: The transportation system is particularly vulnerable to disruptive events, while at the same time it is the primary sector for preparedness management and mitigation. The objective of this research is to quantify the changes in vehicle movement during non-recurrent events (Hurricane Irma 2017, Hurricane Michael 2018, and the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020) by comparing with recurrent period for different categories of vehicles, with an emphasis on freight vehicles.

Show moreThe transportation system is particularly vulnerable to disruptive events, while at the same time it is the primary sector for preparedness management and mitigation. The objective of this research is to quantify the changes in vehicle movement during non-recurrent events (Hurricane Irma 2017, Hurricane Michael 2018, and the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020) by comparing with recurrent period for different categories of vehicles, with an emphasis on freight vehicles. This research sought to identify where and when different classes of vehicles were traveling leading up to hurricane landfall and post-storm re-entry. Moreover, this study aims to understand the impact of the pandemic based on different decision made by government and how this decision was affected by the changes in the daily number of cases. The most significant findings showed that the transportation system is very exposed to disruptive events and needs considerable time to recover and adapt. In addition, it was found that freight vehicle transport experience significant changes after the evacuation and the last phases of the pandemic. The less impacted vehicles are those who belong to vehicle category 9 . This category did not have many days with significant changes. On the other hand, the most affected categories were vehicles in category 5 for evacuations and vehicles in categories 5 and 8 for the pandemic. These findings indicate the vehicle category is a parameter that should be taken into consideration in various emergency event management. The guidance of each vehicle group should have a unique design in order to increase management success by the competent authorities.

Show moreDifferent innovative concepts are aiming to improve last-mile urban logistics and reduce traffic congestion. Congested metropolitan cities are implementing last-mile delivery robots to make the delivery cheaper and faster. A key factor for the success of Automated Delivery Robots (ADRs) in the last-mile is its ability to meet the fluctuating demand for robots at each micro-hub. Delivery companies rent robots from micro-hubs scattered around the city, use them for deliveries, and return them at micro-hubs. This paper studies the dynamic assignment of the robots to satisfy their demands between the micro-hubs. A Mixed-Integer Linear Programming (MILP) model is developed, which minimizes the total transportation costs by determining the optimum required fleet size. The result determines the number of robots required for each planning period to meet all the demands. It provides algorithms to operate and schedule the robot-sharing system in the last leg of the delivery in dense urban areas.

Show moreEvery passenger vehicle must rely on a safe and optimal trajectory to eliminate traffic incidents and congestion as well as to reduce environmental impact, and travel time. Autonomous intersection management systems (AIMS) enable large scale optimization of vehicular trajectories with connected and autonomous vehicles (CAVs). The first contribution of this dissertation is the fastest trajectory planner (FTP) method which is geared for computing the fastest waypoint trajectories via performing graph search over a discretized space-time (ST) graph (Gt), thereby constructing collision-free space-time trajectories with variable vehicular speeds adhering to traffic rules and dynamical constraints of vehicles. The benefits of navigating a connected and autonomous vehicle (CAV) truly capture effective collaboration between every CAV during the trajectory planning step. This requires addressing trajectory planning activity along with vehicular networking in the design phase. For complementing the proposed FTP method in decentralized scenarios, the second contribution of this dissertation is an application layer V2V solution using a coordinator-based distributed trajectory planning method which elects a single leader CAV among all the collaborating CAVs without requiring a centralized infrastructure. The leader vehicular agent calculates and assigns a trajectory for each node CAV over the vehicular network for the collision-free management of an unsignalized road intersection. The proposed FTP method is tested in a simulated road intersection scenario for carrying out trials on scheduling efficiency and algorithm runtime. The resulting trajectories allow high levels of intersection sharing, high evacuation rate, with a low algorithm single-threaded runtime figures even with large scenarios of up to 1200 vehicles, surpassing comparable systems.

A system that provides drivers with parking availability and parking lot occupancy will allow users find a parking space much easier and faster. This thesis presents a system for automatic parking lot occupancy computation using motion tracking. The use of computer vision techniques and low cost video sensors makes it possible to have an accurate system that allows drivers to find a parking spot. Video bitrate and quality reduction and its impact on performance were studied. It was concluded that high quality video is not necessary for the proposed algorithm to obtain accurate results. The results show that relatively inexpensive and low bandwidth networks can be used to develop large scale parking occupancy applications.

This research will investigate one of the most concerning issues with the transportation system, congestion, using an overall delay analysis study. A developed fused database program was used to access and analyze the complete database data. Two online databases were used for obtaining traffic, incident and weather data. Eleven different scenarios such as peak-hours, rain scenario, incidents scenario, and work zone scenario were developed for the analysis. An overall delay study was performed on all scenarios to find the impact recurring and non-recurring congestion on the highway. The results of this research were interesting for future adjustment and improvements on the two segments of highways selected.

Title: Estimating Pedestrian Impact on Coordination of Urban Corridors.
Creator: Chowdhury, Sharmin-E-Shams, Stevanovic, Aleksandar, Florida Atlantic University, College of Engineering and Computer Science, Department of Civil, Environmental and Geomatics Engineering
Abstract/Description: At most of the US signal, pedestrian walk timings run in concurrence with relevant vehicular traffic signal phases which means that major-street coordinated operations can be interrupted by a pedestrian call. Such interruption may increase delays and stops for major traffic flows. An alternative to this design is to increase the cycle length and embed pedestrian timings within the ring-barrier structure of the prevailing coordination plan. Both approaches have advantages and disadvantages....
Show moreAt most of the US signal, pedestrian walk timings run in concurrence with relevant vehicular traffic signal phases which means that major-street coordinated operations can be interrupted by a pedestrian call. Such interruption may increase delays and stops for major traffic flows. An alternative to this design is to increase the cycle length and embed pedestrian timings within the ring-barrier structure of the prevailing coordination plan. Both approaches have advantages and disadvantages. This study attempts a novel approach to address this situation by a comprehensive experimental evaluation of traffic performance under various pedestrian signal timing strategies. Findings show that either abovementioned approach works well for very low traffic demands. When the traffic demand increases findings cannot be generalized as they differ for major coordinated movements versus overall network performance. While coordinated movements prefer no interruption of the coordinated operations, the overall network performance is better in the other case.

In this new era, engineers are rethinking a network designed predominately for the automobile. The ultimate goal of this research is to create a process that can make a vehicle dominant corridor a desirable, livable thoroughfare by livability design and context sensitive performance measures. Balancing travel modes requires an account of vehicular traffic and the impact of reconfiguring existing conditions. The analysis herein is conducted by field data collection, transportation equations and microsimulation. Simulating traffic behavior will be the means to apply livable alternatives comparable to existing Southeast Florida conditions. The results herein have shown that micro-simulation can be utilized in transportation planning to reveal good livability alternatives.
