Although there have been a number of recent reviews on the use of traffic conflict techniques (TCTs), none have focused on the use of proximal surrogate indicators. This paper comprehensively reviews the development and application of proximal surrogate safety indicators to address this gap. There i...

This paper critically reviews micro-simulation modelling applications for traffic safety evaluation with respect to the use of different simulation tools, the application of surrogate safety indicators under different aspects of road environments and crash considerations. General input variables use...

Design of flexible pavement is largely based on empirical methods using layered elastic and two-dimensional finite element (FE) analysis. Currently a shift underway towards more mechanistic design techniques to minimize the limitations in determining stress, strain and displacement in pavement analy...

In spite of great progress in international traffic safety works, traffic accidents still cause a large and increasing number of fatalities and severe injuries particularly in developing countries like Bangladesh. Sustained declining trends of road fatalities in the developed countries have been att...

Road safety is a global concern particularly in developing countries where some road sections are disproportionately more vulnerable in terms of the frequency and severity of crashes. Other than using historical crash data based reactive approaches, those sections need to be identified proactively, ...

nanoribbons with zigzag edges. Lastly, the structural and electronic stability of the topological materials against strain are demonstrated to extend the scope of using these materials. Our findings suggest that these derivatives are promising materials for spintronic and future high performance nan...

Pedestrian fatality and injury is one of the most concerning issues around the globe. The predictors for such mishaps have been investigated in the developed countries through econometric models and are proven useful techniques. Such studies in the context of developing countries, especially for urb...

INTRODUCTION There have been a number of studies that have led to the development of safety risk assessment models to quantify the probability of crash frequencies on roadway facilities (both at micro- and macro-levels), over a specified time period. However, past research has rarely focused on hete...

The economic and social costs due to road crashes are disproportionately higher in developing countries. In addition, underreporting, coupled with an incomplete and inconsistent recording of reported crashes is a major issue in such settings. A brief outline of the dimension of road safety problems ...

In this paper, an attempt has been made to present the magnitude and trends of the road safety problem and the prevailing accident characteristics in Bangladesh. This paper also reviews some major road safety initiatives undertaken by different governmental and nongovernmental actors in recent years...

The day ahead unit commitment (UC) problem is one of the biggest challenges of power system operation as it requires not only the demand of fulfilling the system constraints but also in most economical way. Adding uncertainty of renewable energy sources make it more difficult to handle. Because of t...

Heavy metals pollution is amongst the commonest form of environmental pollution. These metals have accumulated over time from the smelting and mining activities of man, from poor waste disposal practices and from modernization. Recently the impact of heavy metal pollution of the environment is stirr...
