  2. Availability factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Availability_factor

    The capacity factor of a plant includes numerous other factors which determine the durations the plant is planned to produce electricity. A solar photovoltaic plant is not planned to operate in the dark of a night, hence unplanned maintenance occurring whilst the sun is set does not impact the availability factor.

  3. Passengers per hour per direction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passengers_per_hour_per...

    The corridor capacity in the passenger transport field refers to the maximum number of people which can be safely and comfortably transported per unit of time over a certain way with a defined width. The corridor capacity does not measure the number of vehicles which can be transported over such way, since the nuclear objective of passenger ...

  4. Annual average daily traffic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annual_average_daily_traffic

    For the years when a traffic count is not recorded, the AADT is often estimated by applying a factor called the Growth Factor. Growth Factors are statistically determined from historical data of the road segment. If there is no historical data, Growth Factors from similar road segments are used.

  5. Fundamental diagram of traffic flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fundamental_diagram_of...

    The intersection of freeflow and congested vectors is the apex of the curve and is considered the capacity of the roadway, which is the traffic condition at which the maximum number of vehicles can pass by a point in a given time period. The flow and capacity at which this point occurs is the optimum flow and optimum density, respectively.

  6. Route capacity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Route_capacity

    Route capacity is often calculated and applied in the management and design of rail systems. For railways with very high passenger loads, the maximum possible route capacity is an important factor. A common unit for route capacity is people per hour (pph), which can for metro style systems can be as high as 80,000.

  7. Event data recorder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Event_data_recorder

    In the US 49/563.5 regulatory framework, Event data recorder is defined as a . a device or function in a vehicle that records the vehicle's dynamic time-series data during the time period just prior to a crash event (e.g., vehicle speed vs. time) or during a crash event (e.g., delta-V vs. time), intended for retrieval after the crash event.

  8. K factor (traffic engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K_factor_(traffic_engineering)

    The K Factor also helps calculate the peak-to-daily ratio of traffic. K30 helps maintain a healthy volume to capacity ratio. [3] K50 and K100 will sometimes be seen. K50 and K100 will not use the 30th highest hourly traffic volumes but the 50th or 100th highest hourly traffic volume when calculating the K factor.

  9. Intersection capacity utilization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intersection_Capacity...

    The ICU method uses the Level of Service concept, in which reports on the amount of reserved capacity or capacity deficit. In order to calculate the Level of Service for the ICU method, the ICU for an intersection must be computed first. [3] ICU can be computed by: ICU = sum(max (tMin, v/si) * CL + tLi) / CL = Intersection Capacity Utilization
