The effects of traffic on a performance prediction model
(Texas A&M University, 1995)
This thesis analyzes the use of different age and traffic combinations in determining the predicted condition of pavements. The purpose of this study is to develop improved performance prediction models using traffic data ...
An evaluation of alternative horizontal curve design approaches for rural two-lane highways
(Texas A&M University, 1995)

Models for estimating saturation flow and maximum demand at closely spaced intersections
(Texas A&M University, 1995)
This thesis describes models for saturation flow and maximum demand at closely spaced intersections. The effects of queue interaction between these two intersections are taken into account in both models. The saturation ...
Constructibility review process framework for transportation facilities
(Texas A&M University, 1995)
Constructibility is the optimum use of construction knowledge and experience in planning, design, procurement, and field operations in order to achieve overall project objectives ("Constructibility: a primer" 1986). This ...
Assessment of TRAF-NETSIM for analyzing arterial weaving between ramp terminals and cross streets
(Texas A&M University, 1995)

An investigation of the relationship between total and stopped delay at signalized intersections
(Texas A&M University, 1995)
This thesis investigated the relationship between total delay and stopped delay at signalized intersections. As the 1.3 value used in the 1985 HCM was obtained empirically, an analytical model was developed to account for ...
A stochastic approach to risk assessment of hazardous waste sites
(Texas A&M University, 1995)
A deterministic risk assessment model was evaluated for the variability in its input parameters, Information on these variables was gathered to characterize the variability. Statistical distributions were assigned to the ...
Evaluation of TexSIM for modeling traffic behavior at diamond interchanges
(Texas A&M University, 1995)
Poor operation of diamond interchanges along a freeway corridor can decrease the mobility of the corridor and increase time and energy costs associated with delay at signalized interchanges. Computer simulation provides a ...
Solubilization of petroleum hydrocarbons using biosurfactants
(Texas A&M University, 1995)
Low solubility of petroleum hydrocarbons in water is the major factor limiting the degradation rates of these compounds (Zhang and Miller, 1994). The fraction that is more soluble in the aqueous phase is degraded at higher ...
Nitrogen and chlorpyrifos in surface water runoff from a golf course
(Texas A&M University, 1995)
In recent years, the turfgrass industry has received a great deal of criticism for its abundant use of chemicals on golf courses and the potential risk that this poses to the surrounding environment. With the limited supply ...
