    Abstract: The conventional network structure measure, betweenness centrality (BC), has been used to predict roadway traffic flow; however, without consideration of variable travel demand on the roadway network, the measure’s prediction capability is limited by its static nature. With the objective of explicitly addressing the effects of travel pattern [e.g., origin–destination (O-D) distribution] on the prediction of urban roadway traffic flow, this paper proposes a modified measure that integrates the BC index and the traditional travel demand metrics (i.e., the O-D demand and the ratios of total demand). In the case study, roadway networks of two cities—San Francisco, California, and Nanjing, China—were selected to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method. Taxi GPS trace data in the two cities were retrieved and applied to calibrate and validate the proposed measure. Correlation analyses were conducted to compare the predictions of the conventional and modified betweenness measures against the observed taxi traffic flows. The results show that, compared with the traditional approach, the modified betweenness measure produces predictions that have better correlations with the observed taxi traffic flows in both case studies. More accurate predictions for the future year traffic flow can be expected with the application of the new modified measure.

    Abstract: Asphalt fatigue cracking is widely recognized as one of the most important pavement distresses, which is typically evaluated in the laboratory by conducting repeated load fatigue tests. There is no simple model that can fully reproduce the evolution of the stiffness of asphalt specimens during fatigue testing. This reality limits analysis and interpretation of asphalt fatigue data and the implementation of test results in mechanistic–empirical modeling. Two simple models, based on the logit function, are presented in this paper. These models, called logit and logit-sigmoidal, were found to reproduce almost exactly the evolution of specimen stiffness during flexural fatigue testing. This capability was used to locate critical points of the stiffness degradation curve, including failure points according to complex failure criteria. The mechanical meaning of the parameters of the logit model is analyzed in this paper. One of the parameters was related to the ability of the asphalt mix to sustain damage before crack initiation. Another parameter was related to the presence of reversible phenomena—heating and thixotropy—in the first part of the stiffness degradation curve. The applicability of the logit model to mechanistic–empirical pavement design is also evaluated in this paper on the basis of implementation in the CalME mechanistic–empirical software.

    Abstract: Lack of coordination, mutual independence and disorderly competition among China Railway Express platforms gives rise to high logistics costs; in contrast, horizontal collaboration could form a pool of logistics resources with a scale effect to effectively reduce operating costs. This paper presents a methodology to build a coordinated alliance of China Railway Express platforms in a cost-sharing model. A hybrid approach is proposed, using the gravity model of cross-border logistics, variable-weighted Shapley value, cargo volume decision-making model, and cross-border logistics cost analysis model. Seven China Railway Express platforms in southwest China: Chengdu, Chongqing, Guiyang, Kunming, Liuzhou, Nanning and Zunyi, are selected as examples for empirical analysis. The results demonstrate that alliance is an effective way to control costs, however, issues of railway connectivity can lead to deflection of the optimal alliance and insufficient capacity can affect the stability of the alliance.
