SUMMARY:RESCHEDULED: Women in Transportation\, Prof. Lavanya Marla
DESCRIPTION:The confluence of learning and optimization holds great promise for solving dynamic\, online resource allocation problems under uncertainty. In this talk\, I will present brief overviews of two such problems in which tools developed independently in one field have helped solve problems in the complementary field. First\, we focus on the problem of collaborative routing of aircraft and unmanned vehicles\, under non-stationary spatial-temporal correlations. A long unsolved question in air and ground routing has been: “if a subset of traveling vehicles can be used for exploration to update information\, how should vehicles be routed to collect information most useful to minimize costs for the entire fleet”? We expand on recent advances in multi-armed bandit algorithms to solve this problem\, and generate near-optimal policies. We find this could reduce travel time and fuel burn by about 5% for the fleet. Second\, we study how we can improve upon long-used regret bounds in AI/ML\, which are based on omniscient information about the future. Our work builds on Brown\, Smith\, and Sun (2010)\, who present an approach for information-relaxation bounds in dynamic programs. However\, the computation of these penalized information-relaxation bounds (or penalized regret bounds) for large-scale systems has hitherto been discussed by many as intractable. We present tractable methods to achieve bounds for time-space network-based problems and problems modeled as block-diagonal mixed-integer programs. \nLight refreshments will be provided.

SUMMARY:Women in Transportation Series: Ilgin Guler\, Penn State
DESCRIPTION:Many urban areas rely on bus transit to provide mobility to people. Transit priority strategies can be used to improve bus operations. However\, implementing transit priority applications can often increase the delay of non-transit modes. Hence\, the system-wide benefits or impacts of transit priority applications (TPA) are typically unknown. Moreover\, the impacts and benefits of TPAs can change the mode and route choice of network users. This relationship between the effects of TPAs on traffic and behavior of the network users makes accurate evaluation of TPA locations challenging. In this talk\, a bi-level location optimization algorithm that can evaluate and optimally select locations of TPA applications will be presented. Further\, the accuracy of the optimization process is also addressed by testing different metaheuristic methods to identify an optimization method that can account for the interdependencies between TPA locations. \nLight refreshments will be provided.

SUMMARY:Seminar: Chantal Himmels\, BMW
DESCRIPTION:Driving simulators are among the most frequently used research tools in the automotive domain. The main reason for this is that driving simulators offer a highly controllable and inherently safe test environment. However\, researchers usually aim to draw inferences about the real-world context based on driving simulator experiments. A necessary prerequisite for this is driving simulator validity\, which refers to the correspondence of driver and vehicle/environment behavior in the driving simulator with that in the real world. There are various influencing factors towards driving simulator validity\, and validity must be considered independently for differing driving simulators and use cases\, rather than being a general simulator property. Throughout my PhD\, I proposed a methodology for validating driving simulators\, and conducted numerous subject studies including simulator comparisons as well as real-world studies. The results of my PhD will be presented briefly in this presentation.

SUMMARY:Seminar: Control Engineering for Smart Cities: Curbing Uncertainty\, Taming Nonlinearity\, and Putting Theory to Work
DESCRIPTION:Presented by  Ahmad F. Taha\, Associate Professor\, Vanderbilt University \nSeminar Abstract: Conservative projections estimate that a staggering 70% of the world’s population will live in cities by 2050. As a result of this and other megatrends shaping and defining the Anthropocene\, future cities will need reliable urban infrastructure—systems that are orders of magnitude more superior in every metric than today’s aging\, feeble ones. In short\, today’s most critical infrastructure (i.e.\, energy\, water\, and traffic networks) are incapable of meeting future demand of cities. Transitioning to carbon-free power grids\, climate-resilient\, safe and equitable water systems\, as well as autonomous and electrified transportation networks requires action—action that transcends sluggish political change. \nVarious strategies exist to address the above urban challenges. Compared to policy-driven strategies (e.g.\, regulation\, opening new roads\, building power plants\, replacing deteriorating pipes)\, data- and system-theoretic strategies that rely on network science\, applied math\, control engineering\, and wireless sensing and actuation technologies strike a much-needed balance between cost and efficiency. In this talk\, I will present contemporary research problems in dynamic\, urban networks that address two high-level challenges: human-centered uncertainty and physics-based nonlinearity. From a fundamentally new approach of looking at water system management to robust algorithms to controlling transportation systems and renewables-heavy energy systems\, the talk will showcase how control and optimization theory produce answers to infrastructure challenges with monumental relevance.

SUMMARY:Seminar: Realizing Benefits at Low Market Penetration of Connected Automated Vehicles
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Prof. Brian Park\, UVA: \nIn this talk\, I will present connected vehicles and connected-automated vehicles research demonstrating the potential for improving traffic operations at low market penetrations. The first presentation is a “day one operation” of connected vehicles\, the transit signal priority (TSP) case\, which works even if only buses are connected vehicles. A key advantage of connected vehicle-based TSP (referred to as TSPCV) is its capability to implement (i) cooperative control\, (ii) green reallocation\, and (iii) handling multiple buses approaching from conflicting directions. Both simulation-based study results and a proof-of-concept field implementation featuring traffic signal controllers and connected vehicle communications will be presented. The second presentation is motivated by adaptive cruise control (ACC) not being widely used\, not taking advantage of connectivity\, and human drivers wanting to be in charge. When a human driver speeds up or down depending on their perceived safety in terms of spacing or time headway to their preceding vehicle\, the accelerations or decelerations are not optimal due to human nature. Thus\, an algorithm called human-in-the-loop connected cruise control (hCCC\, “h-triple-C”) is developed. It implements optimal acceleration or deceleration based on (i) the human driver’s intention to speed up or down and (ii) a feedforward signal from its preceding vehicle. The hCCC algorithm was tested using a driving simulator and compared with human drivers. These two presentations showcase exemplary research conducted for the early stages of connected vehicles and connected-automated vehicles\, with significant potential for real-world deployment.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Digitized Lifetime Concrete Corrosion and Humidity Health Monitoring of Bridges\, Parking Decks\, and Garages\, and Other Important Structures
DESCRIPTION:Concrete corrosion represents a high risk to the reliability of critical infrastructure and is the cause of substantial maintenance\, refurbishment\, and rehabilitation costs. As demonstrated in two specific case studies\, a fully iot-enabled\, remote\, corrosion monitoring system contributes to smart infrastructure monitoring of the next generation. The case studies represent cast-in-place concrete bridge decks and post-tensioned bridges in the EU. The sensors are fully embedded within the concrete structure\, and they track the key parameters of humidity and temperature and detect actual corrosion\, not potential. As a result of RFID technology\, the passive sensors enhance the durability and lifetime of the structure\, monitoring and delivering valuable data allowing detection of corrosion risks long before they become visible. Externally mounted gateways gather the information and transmit the data online to enable a remotely accessible\, cost-effective monitoring and alarm system. Therefore\, exploratory inspections can be reduced or eliminated\, the service life of the infrastructure extended\, and rehabilitation costs significantly reduced.\n\n\n\nPresented by  Kline Engineering’s Dan Kline.

SUMMARY:Seminar: The Intersection of Cloud Computing and Civil Infrastructure
DESCRIPTION:Over the coming years\, bridges and other physical infrastructure will experience unprecedented demands due to climate driven changes and trends in freight. These increasing demands are set against a backdrop of infrastructure deterioration as many assets reach the end of their intended life. This presentation will examine not only these trends but also technology that can be leveraged by the engineering community to better analyze\, understand\, and overcome these challenges. \nThe objective of this presentation is to familiarize the engineering community with technology tools that have become well established in adjacent industries and are poised to play a large role in the field of civil infrastructure. These include cloud computing\, programming languages\, data visualization and machine learning. These tools are examined in the context of two upcoming challenges for our industry: climate threats and increasingly heavy freight. Ultimately\, the engineers who know these problems inside and out should have the tools and skill sets to know the data inside and out. \nPresented by HNTB’s Erik Zuker\, PE\, and Rob Wildish\, EIT. Co-hosted by Rutgers and the RIME Bridge Resource Program

SUMMARY:Seminar: Leveraging AI to Improve Safety for Personal Mobility Device Users
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Prof. Reuben Tamakloe\, Research Assistant Professor\, KAIST \nAbstract: Personal Mobility Devices (PMDs) have seen a remarkable rise in popularity\, becoming a preferred mode of urban transportation. However\, this surge has brought significant safety concerns\, highlighted by increased PMD-involved crashes. Research shows that PMD user behavior and the physical environment\, especially in urban areas\, play crucial roles in these crashes. This emphasizes the need for a comprehensive investigation into the factors associated with injury outcomes in PMD-involved accidents. Notably\, there is a research gap in analyzing the determinants behind fatal or severe PMD crashes\, particularly those where the PMD rider is at fault. Additionally\, it is unclear how micro-scale streetscape features influence the fatality of these crashes\, making it difficult for safety researchers and urban planners to efficiently address the road safety problems associated with PMD users. \nWith advancements in computing power\, safety researchers can now utilize state-of-the-art machine learning tools to understand the factors contributing to fatal/severe crashes and develop solutions to reduce their occurrence and severity. In this study\, we apply unsupervised machine learning tools and computer vision to explore the factors associated with fatal or serious injuries in homogeneous groups of crashes caused by PMD riders. Furthermore\, we use computer vision and automated machine learning tools to investigate the impact of streetscape quality features namely greenness\, openness\, enclosure\, walkability\, and imageability—developed based on micro-scale built environment features such as sidewalk proportion\, vegetation proportion\, and building/wall proportion—on the injury outcomes of PMD-involved crashes. \nOur analysis revealed intriguing insights\, indicating unique factor associations in homogeneous PMD-involved crashes connected with fatal/severe injury. Additionally\, the study identified a strong link between these streetscape features and injury outcomes. From the non-linear factor impact analysis\, opportunities to enhance PMD rider safety by improving the built environment were identified. Policymakers can apply these findings to improve PMD rider safety\, contributing to greater environmental sustainability.

SUMMARY:Mass Transit & Climate Change
DESCRIPTION:Public transportation plays a critical role in the fight against climate change. Transportation is the single largest source of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions\, accounting for about 28% of the U.S. total. Of that\, public transportation contributes little\, but it plays a critical role in enabling mode shift. Reducing emissions and improving air quality in all modes\, including transit\, is also important to counter the effects of climate change. With excessive flooding and extreme heat on the rise\, climate change is challenging our transportation networks. In response\, the MTA recently published its Climate Resilience Roadmap\, a comprehensive framework to fortify the transit system against the impacts of climate change. With increased funding\, FTA is expanding public transportation’s role in mitigating climate effects\, making a record investment in low- and no-emission technology\, promoting more equitable transit-oriented development and fostering resiliency through grant programs. The NYU Rudin Center for Transportation presents an expert panel to discuss strategies that will enable our transit system to adapt and expand. \nPanelists\nVeronica Vanterpool\, Acting Administrator\, Federal Transportation Administration\nJamie Torres-Springer\, President\, MTA Construction & Development\nTom Prendergast\, Executive Vice President & New York Metro Chief Executive\, AECOM\nModerator: Sarah M. Kaufman\, Director\, NYU Rudin Center for Transportation\nThis event is sponsored by AECOM\, with additional support from NYU C2SMARTER\, a Tier 1 University Transportation Center\, and the NYU Climate Change Initiative Seed Grant.
