Spatiotemporal analysis of the future carbon footprint of solar electricity in the United States by a dynamic life cycle assessment
Summary: Solar photovoltaics (PVs) installation would increase 20-fold by Vehicles 2050; however, considerable greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions are generated during the cradle-to-gate production, with spatiotemporal variances depending on the grid emission.Thus, a dynamic life cycle assessment (LCA) model was developed to assess the accumulated PV pa

A Crash Surrogate Metric considering Traffic Flow Dynamics in a Motorway Corridor
We proposed a new crash surrogate Fuselage metric, i.e., the maximum disturbance that a car following scenario can accommodate, to represent potential crash risks with a simple closed form.The metric is developed in consideration of traffic flow dynamics.Then, we compared its performance in predicting the rear-end crash risks for motorway on-ramps
