Transportation Engineering
交通工程是土木工程交通方向的核心专业课，研究交通流运行规律及交通设施的规划、设计与管理。内容包括交通流理论、交通调查与分析、道路通行能力、交通规划方法、道路线形设计、交叉口渠化、交通信号控制及智能交通系统基础等。课程注重理论方法与工程实践结合，培养学生从事城市与公路交通系统分析、规划与设计的能力。
Transportation Engineering is a core course for the transportation track of civil engineering, focusing on traffic flow behavior and the planning, design, and operation of transportation facilities. Topics include traffic flow theory, traffic surveys and analysis, highway capacity, transportation planning, geometric design, intersection channelization, signal control, and intelligent transportation systems. The course develops skills for analyzing, planning, and designing urban and highway traffic systems.
学生选取所在城市一个高峰期拥堵明显的信号交叉口，开展实地交通量与车速调查，分析现状信号配时存在的问题。基于韦伯斯特方法重新设计周期时长与绿信比，提出相位优化方案，并利用 VISSIM 或 SYNCHRO 软件进行仿真验证。最终提交设计说明书、调查数据表及仿真对比报告。
Students select a congested signalized intersection during peak hours, conduct field surveys of traffic volume and speed, and analyze deficiencies in the current signal timing. Using Webster's method, cycle length and split are redesigned with an optimized phase scheme, and verified through VISSIM or SYNCHRO simulation. A design report, survey data tables, and simulation comparison are submitted.
