The treatment is concise but it does not neglect to examine the most recent and crucial theoretical aspects which are at the root of numerous highway engineering applications, like, for instance, the essential aspects of highways traffic stream reliability calculation and automated highway systems control. In order to make these topics easy to follow, several illustrative worked examples of applications are provided in great detail. An intuitive and discursive, rather than formal, style has been adopted throughout the contents. As such, the book offers up-to-date and practical knowledge on several aspects of traffic engineering, which is of interest to a wide audience including students, researchers as well as transportation planners, public transport specialists, city planners and decision-makers. 410 0$aSpringer Tracts in Civil Engineering,$x2366-2603 606 $aTransportation engineering 606 $aTraffic engineering 606 $aIndustrial Management 606 $aOperations research 606 $aManagement science 606 $aTransportation Technology and Traffic Engineering 606 $aIndustrial Management 606 $aOperations Research, Management Science 615 0$aTransportation engineering. 615 0$aTraffic engineering. 615 0$aIndustrial Management. 615 0$aOperations research. 615 0$aManagement science. 615 14$aTransportation Technology and Traffic Engineering. 615 24$aIndustrial Management. 615 24$aOperations Research, Management Science. 676 $a388.31 676 $a388.312 700 $aGuerrieri$b Marco$01074267 702 $aMauro$b Raffaele 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910484938603321 996 $aA concise introduction to traffic engineering$92572128 997 $aUNINA
