混凝土冻融破坏机理分析及寿命预测

为提高高寒地带混凝土的耐久性,对混凝土的冻融破坏机理进行了分析,并对受到冻融破坏后的混凝土寿命预测方法进行了简介。分析表明,目前混凝土冻融破坏应用比较成熟的理论为静水压理论和渗透压理论,静水压理论和渗透压理论的主要区别就在于未冻水的迁移方向。混凝土抗冻性影响因素主要有水胶比、含气量、粗集料和掺合料。每种影响因素作用的机理不同,但都共同影响着混凝上在冻融环境下的耐久性。既有研究建立的混凝土冻融寿命预测方面还仅停留于理论层面,能够指导工程实践应用的寿命预测模型仍有待进一步研究。     

关于城市快捷路设计的探讨和思考

随着城镇化建设进程的快速推进,城市空间不断拓展,大型都市圈迅速崛起,居民出行距离不断增长,机动车进出交通与长距离快速通行交通之间的矛盾日益凸显,同步制约了都市圈之间经济、人口、交通之间日益密切的互联互通。加之土地资源和空间限制,新的快速通廊无法实现而既有的主干路因红绿灯较多、耗时较长等无法满足都市圈之间快速一体化发展的进程。为此,很多城市开启了新一轮的城市主干路升级改造工程。但受工程投资、周边环境、征地拆迁等因素制约而又难以实施标准化的城市快速路,很多城市提出了城市快捷路的概念。从城市快捷路的提出和功能定位入手,依托长沙市腾飞路工程实例,探讨城市快捷路设立的意义、适用的范围、工程技术标准、横断面布置形式等技术要点,为其他城市主干路升级改造设计提供部分参考。

Assessment of factors associated with travel time reliability and prediction: an empirical analysis using probabilistic reasoning approach

Significant efforts have been made in modeling a travel time distribution and establishing measures of travel time reliability (TTR). However, the literature on evaluating the factors affecting TTR is not well established. Accordingly, this paper presents an empirical analysis to determine potential factors that are associated with TTR. This study mainly applies the Bayesian Networks model to assess the probabilistic association between road geometry, traffic data, and TTR. The results from this model reveal that land use characteristics, intersection factors, and posted speed limits are directly associated with TTR. Evaluating the strength of the association between TTR and the directly related variables, the log odds ratio analysis indicates that the land use factor has the highest impact (0.83) followed by the intersection factor (0.57). The findings from this study can provide valuable resources to planners and traffic operators in their decision-making to improve TTR with quantitative evidence.     

基于ANFIS的环境激励下桥梁结构应变响应预测分析

为准确预测复杂环境荷载作用下混凝土连续梁桥结构应变响应,基于结构健康监测系统长期实测数据,分析桥梁结构温度场变化规律,进而基于主成分分析及自适应神经网络模糊推理系统,建立桥梁结构温度场与桥梁结构应变响应的复杂非线性关系。首先,利用小波分解技术分离环境荷载及车辆荷载作用下的桥梁结构实测应变响应;然后利用平行坐标轴,分析混凝土连续梁桥结构温度场变化规律,并利用主成分分析提取结构温度场实测温度数据主成分;最后基于自适应神经网络模糊推理系统,以应变测点处温度数据、桥梁结构温度场实测温度数据主成分和采样时间点数据为输入数据,分别建立不同输入变量组合与应变响应的复杂非线性关系,并对比分析不同工况下结构应变响应的预测精度。结果表明：桥梁结构各测点处实测温度数据变化趋势基本一致,同侧测点实测温度数据高度相关,但桥梁结构上、下表面测点温度变化存在明显差异,仅考虑应变测点处温度变化,难以准确预测桥梁结构应变响应;当考虑桥梁结构温度场变化时,能更精确地建立温度与应变响应之间的关系模型,进而基于实测温度数据准确预测桥梁结构应变响应;当缺乏结构温度场实测温度数据时,将采样时间点作为反映桥梁结构温度场变化规律的参数,可取得较好效果。     

Identifying transit deserts for low-income commuters in Wuhan Metropolitan Area,China

The rapid expansion of many Chinese cities has put increasing pressure on existing urban transportation systems. Using Baidu users’ location data, this research analyzes the spatial patterns of the transit systems and commuter flows in Wuhan Metropolitan Area, China, and identifies transit deserts affecting low-income commuters. The results show that, first, most transit demand are generated by trips between neighboring communities, while large transit supply tends to occur between distant communities in the region. Second, about 11.21% of low-income commuters are affected by transit deserts in Wuhan Metropolitan Area. In detail, 61.30% of them commute within the city centers and 36.06% of them commute within the suburbs. Only about 2.64% of them actually travel between city centers and suburbs. Third, for low-income suburban commuters, transit deserts occur when they are surrounded by low-density transit infrastructure and low-frequency transit services, which makes it very difficult for them to connect to rest of the region. However, for low-income commuters residing in the city centers, transit deserts are mainly caused by the large numbers of transit-dependent people competing for limited transit supply in the areas. This research explores the relationship between transit systems and commuting demand in a major Chinese metropolitan area. The findings could help guide future transit system planning in China and beyond.     

Electric vehicle charging station locations: Elastic demand,station congestion,and network equilibrium

Battery-only electric vehicles (BEVs) generally offer better air quality through lowered emissions, along with energy savings and security. The issue of long-duration battery charging makes charging-station placement and design key for BEV adoption rates. This work uses genetic algorithms to identify profit-maximizing station placement and design details, with applications that reflect the costs of installing, operating, and maintaining service equipment, including land acquisition. Fast electric vehicle charging stations (EVCSs) are placed across a congested city's network subject to stochastic demand for charging under a user-equilibrium traffic assignment. BEV users’ station choices consider endogenously determined travel times and on-site charging queues. The model allows for congested-travel and congested-station feedback into travelers’ route choices under elastic demand and BEV owners’ station choices, as well as charging price elasticity for BEV charging users.Boston-network results suggest that EVCSs should locate mostly along major highways, which may be a common finding for other metro settings. If 10% of current EV owners seek to charge en route, a user fee of $6 for a 30-min charging session is not enough for station profitability under a 5-year time horizon in this region. However, $10 per BEV charging delivers a 5-year profit of $0.82 million, and 11 cords across 3 stations are enough to accommodate a near-term charging demand in this Boston-area application. Shorter charging sessions, higher fees, and/or allowing for more cords per site also increase profits generally, everything else constant. Power-grid and station upgrades should keep pace with demand, to maximize profits over time, and avoid on-site congestion.     

基于LSTM网络的驾驶意图识别及车辆轨迹预测

自动驾驶汽车需具备预测周围车辆轨迹的能力,以便做出合理的决策规划,提高行驶安全性和乘坐舒适性。运用深度学习方法,设计了一种基于长短时记忆（LSTM）网络的驾驶意图识别及车辆轨迹预测模型,该模型由意图识别模块和轨迹输出模块组成。意图识别模块负责识别驾驶意图,其利用Softmax函数计算出驾驶意图分别为向左换道、直线行驶、向右换道的概率;轨迹输出模块由编码器-解码器结构和混合密度网络（MDN）层组成,其中的编码器将历史轨迹信息编码为上下文向量,解码器结合上下文向量和已识别的驾驶意图信息预测未来轨迹;引入MDN层的目的是利用概率分布来表示车辆未来位置,而非仅仅预测一条确定的轨迹,以提高预测结果的可靠性和模型的鲁棒性。此外,将被预测车辆及其周围车辆组成的整体视为研究对象,使模型能够理解车-车间的交互式行为,响应交通环境的变化,动态地预测车辆位置。使用基于真实路况信息的NGSIM（Next Generation SIMulation）数据集对模型进行训练、验证与测试。研究结果表明：与传统的基于模型的方法相比,基于LSTM网络的轨迹预测方法在预测长时域轨迹上具有明显的优势,考虑交互式信息的意图识别模块具备更高的预判性和准确率,且基于意图识别的轨迹预测能降低预测轨迹与真实轨迹间的均方根误差,显著提高轨迹预测精度。
