Pedestrian-oriented development in Beirut: A framework for estimating urban design impacts on pedestrian flows through modeling, participatory design, and scenario analysis by Sevtsuk, Andres, Kollar, Justin, Pratama, Daniel, Basu, Rounaq, Haddad, Jawad, Alhassan, Abdulaziz, Chancey, Bahij, Halabi, Mohamad, Makhlouf, Rawad, Abou-Zeid, Maya

“…We illustrate how each scenario affects pedestrian trip generation across various trip types and trip distribution on individual street segments. Our approach demonstrates how urban design interventions–both land use changes and street quality improvements–can influence pedestrian travel demand. …”

Mechanism of traffic jams at speed bottlenecks by Quek, Wei Liang, Chew, Lock Yue

“…In this paper, the interactions between traffic flow and road topology will be studied, particularly the relationship between a sharp bend in a road segment and traffic jams. As suggested by Sugiyama[1], when car density exceeds a critical density, the fluctuations in the speed of each car will lead to greater fluctuations in speed of the cars behind it. …”
