Modelling fatalities on regional road networks

Neuro-fuzzy System Modelling for the Effects of Intelligent Transportation on Road Accident Fatalities

Original scientific paper This paper proposes a Neuro-fuzzy system for quantitative assessment of the effects of intelligent transportation systems and technologies on road fatalities. The basic idea in developing Neuro-fuzzy system is the fact that intelligent transportation systems and technologies activate some safety mechanisms and in turn the activation of safety mechanisms will have a pos...

A Review of Global Road Accident Fatalities

The problem of deaths and injury as a result of road accidents is now acknowledged to be a global phenomenon with authorities in virtually all countries of the world concerned about the growth in the number of people killed and seriously injured on their roads. In recent years there have been two major studies of causes of death worldwide which have been published in the ‘Global Burden of Disea...

Procedural Modelling of Urban Road Networks

We present a model for growing procedural road networks in and close to cities. The main idea of our paper is that a city cannot be meaningfully simulated without taking its neighbourhood into account. A simple traffic simulation that considers this neighbourhood is then used to grow new major roads and to influence the locations of minor road growth. Waterways are introduced and used to help p...

Blood alcohol levels in road traffic fatalities.

Road traffic accident fatalities: 1961 to 1986.

The various trauma-induced pathologies found at necropsy following road traffic accidents in the Bassetlaw area of Nottinghamshire from 1961 to 1986 were recorded and related to the time of death. The catchment area was mainly rural, including stretches of the A1 and A57, but included two small towns (Worksop and Retford). Pick up times varied considerably depending on the site of the accident,...
