Providing priority for buses at traffic signals can be an effective measure to reduce this delay. Bus priority in Swedish urban traffic signal systems are normally coordinated with fixed time plan selection. Within this framework local traffic actuated signal timing adjustments are applied based on detector inputs aimed to reduce the number of vehicles in the dilemma zone. Active bus priority is also achieved with the aim to display green signal at the arrival of the bus to the stop line. Due to lack of knowledge of traffic performance impacts of these techniques a major research study was undertaken funded by the Swedish Road Administration. The aim was to evaluate the following control strategies using Stockholm as case study： （1） Fixed time coordination （FTC）; （2） Fixed time coordination with local signal timing adjustment （FTC-LTA）; （3） FTC-LTA with active bus priority （PRIBUSS）; （4） Self-optimizing control （SPOT） with active bus priority. The methodologies for the study included field data collection using mobile and stationary techniques, offiine signal timing calculations with TRANSYT, microscopic simulation modeling using the HUTSIM model. The study obtained the following results： （1） Local traffic adjustment with the manual FTC reduced total delay by 1%. （2） Signal timings determined using TRANSYT reduced the average intersection delay by 9% compared to manual signal settings. （3） Local traffic adjustment reduced total delay by a further 5%. （4） Bus travel time was reduced by 11% using PRIBUSS, and 28% using SPOT. （5） Travel time for all vehicles did not increase using PRIBUSS, and was reduced by 6.5% with SPOT. Results of comparing PRIBUSS and SPOT to FTC-LTA were shown to be statistically significant.展开更多

These compounds are distinguished by the substituent on one of the phenyl group with NO2 for 1, CN for 2, Cl for 3, p-C6 H4 OMe for 4, OMe for 5,and NMe2 for 6, respectively. As revealed by single crystal X-ray analysis, these substituents play an important role in determining the configuration of the triarylamine framework and the crystal packing of 1–6. The emission properties of these compounds were examined in different solvents(toluene, CH2 Cl2, acetone, tetrahydrofuran(THF), and N,N-dimethylformamide(DMF)) and in solid states. Distinct dual emissions from the localized emissive state and the intramolecular charge transfer state were observed for compound 5 in CH2 Cl2. Compounds 1 and 6 show apparent aggregated enhanced emissions in acetone/H2 O.The emission properties of these compounds were further modulated by the addition of tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane. In addition, density functional theory(DFT) and time-dependent DFT(TDDFT) calculations have been performed on the ground and singlet excited states to complement the experimental findings.展开更多
