Investigating The Impacts Of Truck Platooning On Transportation Infrastructure In The South-Central Region, Hany Hassan Ph.D, Samer Dessouky, Alireza Talebpour, Md Adilur Rahim
Data
Truck platooning is an essential application of connected and autonomous vehicles, where several trucks are connected to each other forming a platoon. It is envisioned that truck platooning can assist in minimizing transportation challenges related to freight movements in the US by improving traffic operation, safety and reducing fuel consumption and emission. One of the most valuable truck corridors in the US is in the South-central region. This study investigates the impacts of truck platooning on US highways in that region using both corridor and network-level simulation analysis. Also, the impact of truck platooning on the pavement was quantified using …
