This design is based on MSP432 single chip microcomputer as the core, combined with visual recognition technology, through speed closed loop to control intelligent car, and realize dual car follow overtake predetermined track. In this design, MSP432P401Y selected main control, identification information sent master serial port, so enter corresponding road prevent from deviating track; The leadi...

Inspired by the discovery of dimeric motor proteins capable of undergoing transportation in living cells, significant efforts have been expended recently to the fabrication of track-walking nanomotors possessing two foot-like components that each can bind or detach from an array of anchorage groups on the track in response to local events of reagent consumption. The central problem in fabricati...

OBJECTIVE To assess the epidemiological data on motor vehicle collisions, injuries and deaths in Kyrgyzstan to inform evidence-based policy development. METHODS Data on motor vehicle collision and injury statistics covering 2003-2007 were obtained from official sources provided by the Department of Traffic Safety and the Ministry of Health's Republican Medical Information Centre. The data wer...

This study intends to present the UAM pilot qualifications and training education systems based on roadmap of technology for K-UAM operation system, which is being promoted commercialization in 2025. There are currently about 250 eVTOL manufactures around world, they gearing up produce a variety aircrafts. In Korea, 35 companies including Hyundai Motor company, Korean Air, Lotte SKT acceleratin...

This investigation was performed as part of the High-Speed Rail IDEA program supports innovative methods and technology in support of the Federal Railroad Administration's (FRA) next-generation high-speed rail technology development program. The High-Speed Rail IDEA program is one of four IDEA programs managed by TRB. The other IDEA programs are listed below. • NCHRP Highway IDEA focuses on adv...

In our original article, we showed graphically that deaths/100 million vehicle miles traveled (VMT) in the United States have been steadily decreasing since 1925. We also showed motor vehicle related death rates/100 000 population decreased from 1966 to 1999. This decrease in deaths/100 000 population illustrated the impressive declines that resulted from aggressive traYc safety and public heal...

Research Needs: Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from the transportation sector account for about 27% of the total GHG emissions in the United States. Due to increased travel demand and limited improvement in fuel efficiency, the GHG emissions from transportation have increased by 16% since 1990 (USEPA, 2015). About 80% of transit buses are currently powered by diesel engines, which are a primary...

Evidence of the health impacts of the built environment has increased rapidly. Studies have linked physical inactivity and motor-vehicle pollution to a range of health problems and have shown that activity levels and air quality are influenced by community design, land use, and transportation patterns. There is comparatively little awareness, however, of the role that laws and policies play in ...
