ST-TrafficFlowTheory&Simultn I

Fundamentals of traffic flow including its characheristics and their relationships; Mathematical models that describe traffic flow dynamics at multiple levels of detail; Solutions and applications of these models that capture traffic flow phenomena such as congestion and queue dissipation. Prerequisites: CE-ENGIN 310 or 411 or 511 or equivalent.

Solid and Hazardous Waste Mgmt

Introduction to municipal solid waste management and hazardous waste management. The relationship between the properties of wastes, the techniques and hardware used for waste handling and processing and the ultimate disposal (containment) of waste and other residual materials will be emphasized. Remediation of contaminated areas is also covered. The design of systems for the management and disposal of solid and hazardous wastes subject to economic factors, safety, reliability and ethical and social implications will be examined. Prerequisite: CE-ENGIN 370.

Soil Behavior

Fundamentals of soil behavior, soil mineralogy and structure, soil stresses, stress-strain-strength behavior of cohesionless and cohesive soils, consolidation behavior of saturated soils, and determination of consolidation and strength parameters in practice. Prerequisite: CE-ENGIN 320.

Public Transportation Systems

A historical overview of public transportation and a summary of existing and future transit and paratransit systems and technologies; application of intelligent transportation system (ITS) technologies (including advanced communication, sensor, and information processing technologies) in the implementation of transit and paratransit operations; public transit systems costs, demand, pricing, and performance evaluation; project planning including routing, scheduling, preliminary design and ownership and organizational options; and systems planning.

Intelligent Transportation Sys

A review of intelligent transportation systems, technologies and user services with an emphasis on the operation of advanced public transportation systems (APTS) and technologies including wire and wireless communication, sensors, automated vehicle location, information processing and other technological applications; user services include traffic signal priority control, en-route and pre-trip traveler information, electronic payment, and management and operations as they pertain to public transit and paratransit services in large metropolitan areas as well as in small urban and rural communit

Intelligent Transport Systems

A critical review and analysis of intelligent transportation systems (ITS) in the management and operation of surface transportation facilities; selected ITS technologies reviewed include wireless and wire communication systems, sensors, information processing techniques, automated location systems, and innovative computational methods; emphasis is placed on several ITS user services including traffic control, en-route and pre-trip information, electronic payment, and fleet management as they pertain to surface transportation facilities in large metropolitan areas as well as small urban and ru
