-
3.00 Credits
Introduces numerical analysis. Solution of linear and nonlinear equation systems. Numerical methods for ordinary and partial differential equations. Engineering applications. Differs from CVEN 4537 by the addition of individual student projects. Prereq: CSCI 1100/1410, MATH 3191 and 3200. Cross-listed with ELEC 5210, MECH 5110.
-
3.00 Credits
Plate buckling, plate girder design and other topics determined by class interest. Prereq: CVEN 4575.
-
3.00 Credits
Advanced topics relating to design and analysis of reinforced concrete structures. Prereq: CVEN 4585.
-
3.00 Credits
Design and location of various classes of rural and urban highways. Development of theory as a rational basis of design for highway alignment, cross-section, intersections, and interchanges is stressed. Prereq: CVEN 4602.
-
3.00 Credits
Covers statistical analysis methods for engineering studies in general, and for highway accident and traffic flow data in particular. Topics include data needs, sampling designs, survey methods, hypothesis testing, tests of proportions, non-parametric tests, analysis of variance, multivariate regression, and other tests of fit. Introductory overview of state and federal accident databases. Comparisons of accident rates by highway type, vehicle speeds, vehicle types, weather conditions and other factors also presented. Prereq: Graduate standing or permission of instructor.
-
3.00 Credits
Covers (1) procedures to satisfy state and local requirements for transportation impact studies, (2) methods to perform trip generation, distribution, and traffic assignment for impact analyses, and (3) analysis of transportation impacts on residential communities, mode choice, regional business (downtown or suburban), peak and off-peak travel times, noise, safety, parking and pedestrians. A course project requires students to develop an application of analysis software to a case study area. Prereq: Graduate standing or permission of instructor.
-
3.00 Credits
Emphasizes the mathematical and probabilistic aspects of traffic flows on interrupted (signalized) and uninterrupted (unsignalized) roadways. The course examines the properties of vehicle motion in traffic streams, and then examines the traffic interactions affected by the relationship between supply (signal timings and road designs) and demand (vehicle arrival rates and traffic patterns). Both macroscopic and microscopic models of traffic flow characteristics are presented, as well as queuing models and statistical distributions of headways. Prereq: CVEN 5611 and CVEN 5621 or permission of instructor.
-
3.00 Credits
Covers the principles and applications of highway capacity analysis for freeways and arterials, ramps and interchanges, weave and merge sections, signalized and unsignalized intersections, roundabouts, pedestrian areas and transit. Emphasis is on level-of-service analysis procedures in the Highway Capacity Manual, although other approaches are also discussed. Additional topics include roadway characteristics, vehicle dynamics, human factors, speed and volume studies, travel time surveys and traffic flow characteristics. Prereq: Graduate standing or permission of instructor.
-
3.00 Credits
Covers principles of traffic flow and analysis methods for surface street traffic systems. Emphasis is on network modeling and simulation of coordinated signal systems, together with unsignalized intersections and freeway junctions using modern software tools. Additional topics include alternative signal timing plans, signal controllers, vehicle detection systems for volume, speed, occupancy and ramp metering. A course project requires students to develop and apply modeling software to a case study area. Prereq: CVEN 5621 or permission of instructor.
-
3.00 Credits
Introduces the urban transportation planning process as conducted by metropolitan planning organizations throughout the U.S. Course covers the four-step modeling process (trip generation, trip distribution, mode split and assignment). Topics also include data needs, survey methods, and statistical models for origin-destination estimation and travel demand forecasting. Prereq: Graduate standing or permission of instructor.
