As a part of the food industry, the dairy industry is one of the most important sectors of the process industry, keeping in mind the number of employees in that sector, the share in the total industrial production, and the overall value added. Many strategies have been developed over time to satisfy customer needs and assess customer satisfaction....

The majority of fuel consumed in traffic on urban arterials is related to driving in congested traffic, characterized by frequent speed fluctuations and stops at signalized intersections. A range of traffic control strategies was suggested in the past to decrease fuel consumption and emissions in urban networks. The research presented in this study...

The paper presents a novel approach to RCUT control, based on the interval Type-2 fuzzy system (IT2FS). RCUT design, among other various alternative intersections, proposes dislocation of left and through movements from the main intersection for an increase in safety and efficient traffic conditions. This concept assumes the rise of two new U-turn...

The selection of appropriate suppliers in an uncertain environment influences the sustainability and the competitive advantage of the automotive industry and hence presents one of the significant management problems. In the literature, it is suggested that an acceptable supplier may be determined concerning many criteria. In this manuscript, criter...

The superstreet intersection (or restricted crossing U-turn-, J-turn intersection) fixed-time traffic control system was developed in this study. The optimal (or near-optimal) values of cycle length, splits, and offsets were discovered by minimizing the experienced travel time of all network users traveling through the superstreet intersection. The...

We proposed in this paper Type-2 Fuzzy Logic-based transit priority strategy. The developed strategy belongs to the class of active priority strategies. At the same time, it is a conditional priority strategy. We tried to find out the finest trade-off between transit and traffic delay. The suggested approach used the data collected from the VISSIM...

Traffic congestion is a global problem that cannot be solved by continuing to add new roads and extra capacity, which is accentuated in the areas where roads of unlimited-access (e.g. arterial streets) interface those of limited-access (e.g. freeways). Many researchers have addressed this problem but we present here a novel method to utilize a fuzz...

Algorithms for optimizing traffic operations at a single intersection consider mostly one objective function (often vehicle delays). Such an approach can lead to long pedestrian waiting times as well as reducing safety conditions at the intersection. In this paper, a multicriteria optimization approach to the single intersection traffic control pro...

The rapid progress of information technologies has resulted in the development of e-banking. The significant range in consumer demands and lifestyles have imposed the need for banks to use new technologies to communicate with clients. The main advantage of e-banking is the ability to conduct transactions at any time and anywhere. For banks, as prov...

In the recent paper, authors have considered a problem of controlling an oversaturated intersection in real time and developed a mathematical model based on fuzzy logic. The model was tested on an oversaturate “T” intersection and we obtained solutions with less control delay in comparison to the “fixed time” model. First, we will present the basic...

Sažetak: Napraviti analitički model koji će na najbolji mogući način oslikavati izloženost pešaka riziku na signalisanoj raskrsnici nije nimalo jednostavan zadatak. Highway Capacity Manual (HCM), kao jedan od najobuhvatnijih priručnika iz predmetne oblasti, ne uzima u detaljnije razmatranje probleme bezbednosti pešaka na raskrsnici. Do sada su u li...

In this paper we study the problem of determining the optimum cycle and phase lengths for isolated signalized intersections. Calculation of the optimal cycle and green phase lengths is based on the minimization of the average control delay experienced by all vehicles that arrive at the intersection within a given time period. We consider under-satu...

The paper describes a new method of optimizing traffic signal settings. The area-wide urban traffic control system developed in the paper is based on the Bee Colony Optimization (BCO) technique. The BCO method is based on the principles of the collective intelligence applied by the honeybees during the nectar collecting process. The optimal (or nea...

The speed-traffic flow density interdependence diagram has a number of variations, starting with the theoretical model, through various empirical models that were developed and models based on actual research done on traffic flow. The functional interdependence is obtained using the Sugeno fuzzy logic system, where representative values proposed in...
