This book presents the select proceedings of the 2nd International
Conference on Transportation Infrastructure Projects: Conception to
Execution (TIPCE 2022) at IIT Roorkee and emphasizes the
understanding of transportation infrastructure projects being
conceptualized, designed, and executed so as to bring the desired
development in the focused area. It comprises case studies from the
transportation sector, construction industries, consulting
agencies, and research and academic institutions. These studies
present the bottlenecks experienced during the implementation of
the projects, from their conceptualization to their execution and
the corrective measures that were incorporated to finish the work.
The book will be a valuable reference for beginners, researchers,
and professionals interested in construction planning and
technology, infrastructure engineering, highway engineering,
traffic and transportation planning and systems.
This co-edited book focuses on the state-of-the-art research in
transportation in India. Exploring the need for a sustainable
transport paradigm in India, this timely book offers solution
concepts for mobility and infrastructure challenges faced by local,
state, and national transport authorities. The contents provide a
holistic understanding of the paradigm, considering several
case-studies and study findings from the leading transportation
researchers in India. At the same time, it also addresses the
pressing transportation related challenges such as road user
safety, traffic operation efficiency, economic and social
development, non-motorized transport planning, environmental impact
mitigation, energy consumption reduction, land-use, equity, freight
transport planning, multimodal coordination, access for the diverse
range of travellers' needs, sustainable pavement construction, and
emerging vehicle technologies. The existing practices and policies
in all the sectors and levels of transport are highlighted in this
book with an emphasis on a broader vision for achieving sustainable
and inclusive development. The information and data-driven
inferences compiled in the book will be useful for practitioners,
policymakers, educators, researchers, students, and individual
learners.
This book (in three volumes) comprises the proceedings of the Fifth
Conference of Transportation Research Group of India (CTRG2019)
focusing on emerging opportunities and challenges in the field of
transportation of people and freight. The contents of the volume
include characterization of conventional and innovative pavement
materials, operational effects of road geometry, user impact of
multimodal transport projects, spatial analysis of travel patterns,
socio-economic impacts of transport projects, analysis of
transportation policy and planning for safety and security,
technology enabled models of mobility services, etc. This book will
be beneficial to researchers, educators, practitioners and policy
makers alike.

This book presents a comprehensive approach for modeling of
uninterrupted unidirectional traffic stream with or without lane
discipline. The primary tasks of driving are (i) steering control
(or lateral control) through appropriate choice of steering angle,
and (ii) speed control (or longitudinal control) through
acceleration/deceleration. To incorporate driver's lateral
interaction to road and traffic elements realistically, modeling of
steering control is equally important which is missing in most of
the existing driver models. This book proposed a comprehensive
microscopic model which incorporates the driver's lateral and
longitudinal interaction with road and traffic elements together.
The proposed model is evaluated for various macroscopic features
(like fundamental relationship between speed, flow and density,
effect of road width and road blockage on capacity) and microscopic
features (like acceleration noise and speed distribution) of
traffic streams on road with and without lane discipline. Results
show the capability of proposed model in simulating the traffic
streams on various verities of roads and driving scenarios.
