The researchers simulated the implementation of transit eco-driving strategies in an effort to reduce fuel consumption and emissions from transit operations.
This project provides energy and environment policy makers with both an up-to-date review of eco-driving outcomes and an understanding of how those outcomes depend on the behavioral contexts in which they are measured.
This white paper examines truck eco-driving programs from Europe, Asia, and North America. It discusses challenges and solutions for implementing educational eco-driving programs.
The research team will build on past research to develop new cooperative traffic operation methods, methods that take advantage of not only infrastructure-to-vehicle communications, but also vehicle-to-infrastructure communications.
The researchers use Eco-Friendly Intelligent Transportation Systems (ECO-ITS) to log real-time vehicle and engine/after treatment data to accurately establish truck baseline fuel consumption and emissions and quantify fuel and emission savings.
This project examines intelligent traffic control strategies, which will have positive impact on the environment by reducing fuel consumption and pollution levels in areas where the truck volume is relatively high.
In this project, the researchers present an agent-based online adaptive signal control strategy based on real-time traffic information available from vehicles equipped with Connected Vehicle technology, with the goal of making freight operations more sustainable.
The goal of this study is to investigate the combined impact of fuel type, after treatment strategies, and driving mode on primary and secondary emissions form heavy duty vehicles.
This research is focused on the development of recommendations and guidance on the use of thin bonded concrete overlay of asphalt (BCOA) as a rehabilitation alternative for California based on the
This project examined the effects of road configurations and urban vegetation on the air quality impact of vehicle-related emissions and used this understanding to suggest methods to mitigate the impact of these emissions on urban air quality.
