Development of a micro-simulation model for motorway roadworks with the use of narrow lanes and lane closure schemes
Thesis
Nassrullah, Z. Development of a micro-simulation model for motorway roadworks with the use of narrow lanes and lane closure schemes. (Thesis). University of Salford

This study presents a newly developed micro-simulation model for motorway roadwork sections to evaluate the efficiency of different temporary traffic management schemes (TTMSs) such as the use of narrow lanes, offside and inside lane closures. The ef... Read More about Development of a micro-simulation model for motorway roadworks with the use of narrow lanes and lane closure schemes.

Close following behavior: Testing visual angle car following models using various sets of data
Journal Article
Yousif, S., & Al-Obaedi, J. Close following behavior: Testing visual angle car following models using various sets of data. Transportation Research Part F: Traffic Psychology and Behaviour, 14(2), 96-110. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.trf.2010.11.001

Visual angle car following models have previously been proposed in modeling drivers’ “close following” behavior particularly in traffic simulation models. These models use relative speeds and relative spacings between successive vehicles, but they ar...

Traffic operations at on-street parking facilities
Journal Article
Yousif, S., & Purnawan. Traffic operations at on-street parking facilities. Proceedings of the ICE - Transport, 157(3), 189-194. https://doi.org/10.1680/tran.2004.157.3.189

This study reports on the findings based on observations from sites with parallel and angle parking layouts. The main parameters under consideration were the manoeuvre time for parking or unparking and the gap acceptance to merge into the traffic...

The use of visual angle in car following traffic micro-simulation models
Presentation / Conference
Al-Obaedi, J., & Yousif, S. The use of visual angle in car following traffic micro-simulation models. Presented at International Built & Human Environment Research Week (IRW)., Salford, Greater Manchester

This paper presents a detailed literature review on car following models and methods used in describing the behaviour between two drivers of successive vehicles travelling in a traffic stream. The paper then concentrates on presenting a proposed car... Read More about The use of visual angle in car following traffic micro-simulation models.
