  3. 2. Traffic Simulation of Automated Shuttles in Linköping University Campus

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Kommunikations- och transportsystem; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska fakulteten

    Author : Rihanna Gugsa Gebrehiwot; [2021]
    Keywords : automated shuttles; microscopic traffic simulation; car-following models; IDM; Krauss; SUMO.;

    Abstract : Automated shuttles are designed to provide a clean transportation and improve access to areas such as where travelers have to walk long distances to/from bus stops. The introduction of automated shuttles in the road network might affect the safety of pedestrians and cyclists as well as traffic performance of motorized vehicles. READ MORE

  4. 3. Analysis and Simulation Study of Stochastic Time-To-Collision as a Severity Measure in Traffic Security

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematisk statistik

    Author : Per Niklas Benzler Waaler; [2020]
    Keywords : time; collision; ttc; stochastic; probability; transform; transformation; traffic; data; under; estimation; post; encroachment; mixture; distribution; simulation; study; encounter; conflict; trajectory; prediction; road; user; safety; severity; surrogate; measure; Mathematics and Statistics;

    Abstract : Traffic accidents are extremely rare, creating the need for surrogate methods for safety analysis that makes efficient use of the information provided by traffic conflicts, which also are limited in availability. The severity measure time-to-collision (TTC) in combination with extreme value theory have so far been one of the primary measures used to infer traffic safety levels, but it relies on unrealistic assumptions that results in severity measures that do not always agree well with observed danger.

  5. 4. Traffic safety analysis for cyclists at roundabouts, a case study in Norrköping

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Kommunikations- och transportsystem; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska högskolan

    Author : Shengjie Tang; [2018]
    Keywords : Cyclist Safety; Roundabout Designs; Geometric Elements; Safety Assessment; Safety Performance; Traffic Safety;

    Abstract : Cyclists as vulnerable road users are oftentimes unprotected with exposed human body, can fall easily and sustain serious injuries when encountered collisions, especially with motorists. At roundabouts, accident reduction rate for cyclists is rather uncertain or sometimes less favorable compared to other road users (e.g. motorists, pedestrians). READ MORE

  6. 5. Nursing panorama of patients with musculoskeletal injuries in Uganda using NANDA and NIC : An observational study

    University essay from Röda Korsets Högskola

    Author : Niklas Ergardt; Clara Stenström-Kyobe; [2012]
    Keywords : Nursing care; Next-of-kin; Uganda; NANDA; NIC;

    Abstract : Background: Road traffic accidents are on the rise in low income countries and have a large socioeconomic impact on Uganda. In Uganda, the nurse-patient ratio is 50-100 patients per nurse which is higher than in Sweden, and the patients’ next-of-kin are involved to assist with nursing care. READ MORE
