A Study of Inclement Weather Impacts on Freeway Free-Flow Speed

The research presented in this thesis attempts to investigate the impact of detector failure frequency and failure duration on the accuracy of loop detector speed, flow, and density measurements using a Monte Carlo simulation approach. The inputs to the model are the frequency of failures and failur...
