    Abstract: Advanced driving assistance systems (ADAS) are designed to reduce potential crash risks and enhance driving safety. However, drivers’ interactions with ADAS may vary depending on their individual driving styles and characteristics. This study proposes a novel approach to classifying driving styles and explores how age and gender affect interactions with ADAS. The study utilized two naturalistic driving data sets comprising 148 drivers from four age groups: teens; younger adults; middle-aged adults; and older adults. Data were collected during two periods: baseline (without ADAS); and treatment (with ADAS). First, the K-means clustering algorithm was employed to divide trips into one conservative and two aggressive groups based on three driving behavior metrics: tailgating; speeding; and lane-changing. The aggressive-trip ratios were then calculated for each driver during each of the two periods. The Bayesian Gaussian mixture model was applied to determine the threshold values of the aggressive-trip ratios to classify drivers as conservative, moderate, or aggressive during each period. This allowed for identifying changes in driving style upon the activation of ADAS. The subsequent multinomial logistic regression model results showed that driving styles vary across age groups, with teens being the most aggressive drivers. Certain changes in driving style were observed, with some conservative drivers becoming aggressive or moderate and some aggressive drivers becoming conservative or moderate, but these differences were statistically non-significant. The findings of this study indicate that warning-based ADAS may not elicit significant changes in driving style, particularly among teenage drivers who are consistently the most aggressive drivers.

    Abstract: Transportation systems play a pivotal role in the nation’s economic and societal development. Transportation assets, such as pavements and bridges, are inevitably subject to the effects of climate and environment. These stressors mainly include flood, precipitation, heat, wildfire, and wind. Specifically, more extreme weather events, such as hurricanes and snowstorms, have occurred in recent years. This requires stakeholders to better prepare transportation infrastructure resilience in planning, design, construction, and management. Its importance is manifested through nationwide policy and state-level practice. For example, in Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, the FHWA directs all state DOTs to incorporate resilience in their transportation asset management plans. A critical element in resilience is to evaluate the effect of climatic or environmental stressors on facilities’ performance. This study examines the impact of flood on the TxDOT-managed pavement network. It proposes a method to evaluate the flood-vulnerable pavement network in the context of resilience. First, the GIS tool is used to overlap a 100-year frequency flood with the road network to identify weak pavement sections subject to flood risk. Second, a simulation is run to determine sections affected by flood over a 10-year analysis horizon. Then, different deterioration models are used to predict the network-level pavement performance, to reflect (1) normal deterioration without flood, (2) optimistic accelerated deterioration under flooding, and (3) pessimistic accelerated deterioration under flooding. It is found that the network-level pavement will experience varying levels of performance reduction, owing to a 100-year flood impact. The quantified performance change can serve to enhance infrastructure resilience preparation for more reliable pavement system management.
