Borman Expressway Atms Equipment Evaluation, J. V. Krogmeier, Kumares C. Sinha, Michael P. Fitz, Srinivas Peeta, Shimon Y. Nof Jan 1996

Borman Expressway Atms Equipment Evaluation, J. V. Krogmeier, Kumares C. Sinha, Michael P. Fitz, Srinivas Peeta, Shimon Y. Nof

JTRP Technical Reports

An Advanced Traffic Management System (ATMS) is under development in northern Indiana by the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) in conjunction with Hughes Transportation Management Systems. The study area comprises a sixteen mile segment of the heavily used Borman Expressway and its associated corridor; beginning at the Indiana/Illinois border and stretching east to the Indiana Toll Road interchange. The most important operational problem on the Borman is non-recurrent congestion, arising primarily through accidents and stalled vehicles. In order to mitigate the significant bottleneck delay problems due to non-recurrent congestion, INDOT is developing an ATMS for real-time incident detection and response …


Seismic Evaluation Of Highway Bridges - Phase 1, J. A. Ramirez, Austin D. Pan, Frank Thompson Mwakasisi Jan 1996

Seismic Evaluation Of Highway Bridges - Phase 1, J. A. Ramirez, Austin D. Pan, Frank Thompson Mwakasisi

JTRP Technical Reports

The primary objective of the study was to establish the guidelines for screening, assessing, and ranking Indiana bridges for seismic upgrade. The outcome of the study is a complete strategy for the detailed structural assessment of Indiana highway bridges subjected to seismic forces. The structural evaluation is conducted using a nonlinear time-history analysis of the bridge for simulated or actual records. The specific soil conditions at the site are accounted in terms of the ground motion. From the time history analysis the maximum structural response including displacements, bending moments, shear and axial forces are computed. A weighted evaluation of the …


Use Of Gps To Enhance Mapping By Photogrammetry, Robert D. Feeney, James Samuel Bethel, Boudewijn H. W. Van Gelder, Steve Johnson Jan 1996

Use Of Gps To Enhance Mapping By Photogrammetry, Robert D. Feeney, James Samuel Bethel, Boudewijn H. W. Van Gelder, Steve Johnson

JTRP Technical Reports

This research has sought to demonstrate the benefits of kinematic GPS in conjunction with photogrammetric aerial triangulation for mapping purposes. The work was performed with the existing INDOT aerial camera which is quite old, and while this affected the accuracy of the results, the demonstration of capability with a likely potential for excellent results was achieved. Ground point accuracies from the strip were in the sub-meter range with only a single control point. This is contrasted with full-model control requiring 50-80 control points for such a strip. In order to bring accuracies down to an acceptable level, i.e. sub decimeter, …


A Case Study In Synchronous Parallel Discrete Event Simulation, José Miguel Alonso, José A.B Fortes Dec 1995

A Case Study In Synchronous Parallel Discrete Event Simulation, José Miguel Alonso, José A.B Fortes

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Technical Reports

This paper considers the suitability of SPED, a synchronous parallel discrete event simulator, for the study of message passing networks. The simulation algorithm is described, and its potential performance is assessed showing that, under some simplifying assumptions, SPED might offer speedups directly proportional to the number of processors used in the simulation. An implementation of SPED in a distributed memory parallel system is used to study a model of an interconnection network for a multicomputer. Experiments show that SPED performs nearly as expected, as long as the event density imposed on the LPs is above a certain threshold. If this …

An Evaluation Of Implementations Of The Cmb Parallel Simulation Algorithm On Distributed Memory Multicomputers, José Miguel, Agustin Arruabarrena, Ramon Beivide, José A..B. Fortes Dec 1995

An Evaluation Of Implementations Of The Cmb Parallel Simulation Algorithm On Distributed Memory Multicomputers, José Miguel, Agustin Arruabarrena, Ramon Beivide, José A..B. Fortes

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Technical Reports

A model of a message-passing network is used to analyze the behavior of three implementations of the Chandy-Misra-Bryant parallel simulation algorithm. The characteristics of the model, the organization of the logical processes that constitute the simulator and the characteristics of the host parallel computer have a definite influence on the achieved performance, measured in terms of speedup. Large, loaded models help CMB to synchronize with a minimum overhead, efficiently exploiting the available parallelism. Mapping several LPs onto each processor achieves a better use of the available processing power, because while a LP is blocked (synchronizing) others can use the CPU. …

Nonlinear Modeling And Processing Of Speech With Applications To Speech Coding, Shan Lu, Peter C. Doerschuk Oct 1995

Nonlinear Modeling And Processing Of Speech With Applications To Speech Coding, Shan Lu, Peter C. Doerschuk

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Technical Reports

IN recent years there has been increasing interest in nonlinear speech modeling. In our approach, a speech signal is modeled as a sum of jointly amplitude (AM) and frequency (FM) modulated cosines with slowly-varying center ffrequencies. The key problem is to extract the center frequency and the amplitude and frequency modulations for each formant in the model from the measured speech signals. In this study, we describe the speech signal in terms of statistical models and apply statistical nonlinear filtering techniclues (Extended Kalman Filter) to estimate the amplitude and frequency. The Ahl and Fbl signals are estimated for all the …
