摘要: |
The creation and progress of OAK-TREE (One-of-a-Kind Traffic Research and Education Experiment) are chronicled. OAK-TREE is a traffic educational laboratory experiment that was developed and conducted at the University of California at Irvine (UCI) during the spring quarter of 1996. This project involved a cooperative effort between the academic community and public-sector transportation operating agencies in developing a comprehensive field and laboratory educational experience for undergraduate students in transportation engineering. The agencies involved in this effort were the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the University of California at Irvine, the Advanced Traffic Surveillance and Control Center of the city of Los Angeles, the Transportation Management Center of the city of Anaheim, and the Irvine Traffic Research and Control Center of the city of Irvine. These agencies were instrumental in creating an innovative laboratory experience for academic training in the use of state-of-the-practice resources and methods for traffic engineering. The results were the development of a state of the art traffic-control educational laboratory at UCI and the genesis of a unique traffic-control course that fulfilled the requirements of both fundamental academic education and rigorous professional training. |
