Fuzzy Logic Applications in Traffic and Transportation Engineering

Dear Colleagues,

Traffic and transportation engineering involves the application of scientific principles to the planning, design, and operation of facilities for any mode of transportation and human resource management in industry required to enable the safe, efficient, economical, and environmentally compatible movement of people and goods. Having in mind the complexity of the processes at work in transportation engineering, fuzzy logic is a convenient tool for their modeling. Fuzzy logic is based on reasoning which is approximate rather than precise, which provides various possibilities for application in the transportation field, a domain characterized by constant transformations that often lead to uncertainty and imprecision. A particular advantage of fuzzy systems is the possibility to include multiple goals in calculations and, by adequate optimization algorithms, to reach a high similarity to real-world phenomena. This Special Issue is devoted to examples of fuzzy logic implementation to solve various traffic and transportation engineering problems, in all modes of transportation—road, rail, air, and waterborne transport, the postal and logistics industries, as well as telecommunications.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-anonymized peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Mathematics is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
