PARKING STUDIES PROB 1. Data collected at a parking lot indicate that a total of 300 cars park between 8 a.m. and 6 p.m. 10% of these cars are parked for an average of 2 hr, 30% for an average of 4 hr, and the remaining cars are parked for an average of 10 hr. Determine the space-hours of demand at the lot PROB 2. If 10% of the parking bays are vacant on average (between 8 a.m. and 6 p.m.) at the parking lot of PROB1, determine the number of parking bays in the parking lot. Assume an efficiency factor of 0.85

At 10 am, vehicles arrive at a toll booth facility at the rate of 480vehicles/hour. Initially, the toll booth is closed from 10:00 am until 10:15 am. Then it opens from 10:15with a service rate of 6 seconds per vehicle. Assuming D/D/1 queuing, determine:(1) At what time queue disappears? (2) What is the total delay? (3) What is the maximum Queuelength? (4) What is the queue length at 10:00 am? (5) What is maximum delay? (6) What is thedelay for the 140th and 170th vehicle?
The average queue length at the intersection of the two roads with a stop sign is 4 vehicles. If the arrival rate of vehicles at the stop sign is 300 veh/hr, determine the service rate of the road in veh/hr. Assume both arrival and departure rates are exponentially distributed.

Question 5 A shopping centre has two types of checkouts, traditional checkouts which are staffed by cashiers, and which are usually preferred by older customers, and self- serve checkouts which are preferred by younger customers. One day, it was recorded that an average of 20 older people an hour left the staffed checkouts and approximately 1 young person every two minutes began queuing for the self- checkout machines. If both checkout methods have an average wait time of 5 minutes per person, what is the arrival rate for the traditional checkouts and the departure rate for the self-checkouts? O A 20 people/hr; µ = 19 people/hr A 19 people/hr; μ = 20 people/hr λ = 13 people/hr; μ = 39 people/hr λ = 39 people/hr; μ 13 people/hr
Question 4 Vehicles begin to arrive at a border gate at 06h50 with a deterministic arrival rate of λ (t) = 5.2 - 0.01t (λ is in vehicles per minute and t in minutes after 06h50). However, the gate opens at 07h00 and serves vehicles at a rate of μµ(t) =3.3 + 2.4t (with t in minutes after 07h00 and u in vehicles per minute). Once the service rate reaches 10 vehicles per minute, it stays at that level for the rest of the day. ● ● Illustrate the operational characteristics of the vehicle queue-delay on a (cumulative) vehicle-Time graph. When will the queue that forms be dissipated? What will be the maximum queue length? Determine the total delay.
A toll booth on a temple is open from 8:00 AM to 12 midnight. Vehicles start arriving at 7:45 AM at a uniform deterministic rate of six per minute until 8:15 AM and from then on at two per minute. If vehicles are processed at a uniform deterministic rate of six per minute, determine the (a) time of queue dissipation in minutes (b) total number of vehicles in queue and (c) total vehicle delay
1. A total of 5,000 person-trips are made between a commercial district and a residential area during the PM peak hour. Commuters have two modes available, including private automobile and a light- rail transit system. The following utility function was calibrated using data from the study area from users of these two modes: U 3D -0. 50T1 — 0. 50T, — 2. 00С Data summarizing the operational characteristics and costs associated with each mode are provided in the following table. Private Light-Rail Parameter Automobile Transit = in-vehicle travel time (min.) 10 T1 T2 = excess time (min.) C = out-of-pocket cost (dollars) 15 5 10 5.00 2.00 Determine how many trips will be made by each travel mode based on these characteristics.
Vehicles arrive at a recreational park booth at a uniform deterministic rate of 4 veh/min. If uniform deterministic processing of vehicles (collecting fees) begins 30 minutes after the first arrival and the total delay is 3600 veh-min, how long after the arrival of the first vehicle will it take the queue to dissipate?
Can someone please show me how to solve this step by step. Thank you Suppose you are hired by the UHM Transportation and Traffic Lab (TTL) to analyze vehicle arrivals at one lane of the interchange bridge connecting I-25 and I-40 for the period from 12:00am to 4:00am in a weekday. It is known that vehicle arrivals follow a Poisson process at this location. There is a single-loop detector embedded on this lane at the end of the interchange bridge. Since you do not want to go to the bridge to count vehicles at this time period, you decided to use the loop detector data for the analysis. Of the 720 20-second intervals (the loop detection system stores data every 20 seconds), 508 intervals were identified to have at least one vehicle detected. Assume the loop detector is free of error. Please estimate the vehicle arrival rate (vehicles per second) for this lane. With the estimated arrival rate, please calculate the probability of having three or more vehicles detected in a 20-second…

13. An incident that occurs on a particular highway results in traffic incurring an average delay of one hour per vehicle. An estimated 2,000 vehicles are impacted by the incident. If the distribution of traffic is comprised of 5% five-axle trucks, 2% three-axle trucks, 4% six-tire trucks, 2% four-tire trucks, 4% medium auto for business purposes, 3% small auto for business purposes, and the remainder are automobiles for personal purposes, what is the value of the total delay incurred by the traffic.
