November 20, 2025University of Wyoming researchers used advanced statistical modeling, machine learning, data mining applications, safety data visualizations, high-fidelity driving simulator experiments, and traffic microsimulation modeling to evaluate CV technologies. Their work is a crucial first step in identifying the issues associated with integrating CV technology into roadway operational strategies.
November 6, 2025Research at the University of Wyoming leveraged easily accessible data from roadside cameras to develop an affordable automatic road weather and surface condition detection system. The project’s results will help enhance the Advanced Traveler Information System by improving the identification of weather conditions using existing WYDOT infrastructure.
October 31, 2025Research at the University of Utah is providing a scalable, privacy-preserving solution for improving culvert condition prediction. This method will enable transportation agencies to make more data-driven, proactive maintenance decisions.
October 16, 2025A new method for improving measurements of soil shear stress, erosion, and scour will help engineers design bridges that are more resilient and longer-lasting.
June 19, 2025Recent research conducted at South Dakota State University shows that E. coli contamination of stormwater runoff was reduced by an average of more than 44%, and phosphate levels were also significantly reduced in a pilot stormwater filtration that used steel chips and steel slag as a filtration media.
June 17, 2025Research at South Dakota State University to better understand stream flows will lead to improved designs for bridges, culverts, and other infrastructure elements that are subject to erosion and scour.
June 13, 2025Researchers at the University of Utah have developed technology that can potentially conduct multi-lane roadway ice/snow coverage estimation, which is superior to the state-of-the-art single-spot measurements.
June 11, 2025Researchers at the University of Utah are exploring local resonances, a form of ultrasonic vibration, to detect defects and thermal stress in railroad rails.
June 10, 2025Researchers at Colorado State University developed and applied a methodology for performing a complete structural analysis of transportation infrastructure elements, moving from digital images, acquired from either hand-held cameras or uncrewed aircraft systems, through several image processing schemes into a finite element analysis of representative structures.
