OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to describe bicycle helmet use among Montreal cyclists as a step towards injury prevention programming. METHODS Using a cross-sectional study design, cyclists were observed during 60-minute periods at 22 locations on the island of Montreal. There were 1-3 observation periods per location. Observations took place between August 16 and October 31, 2011. S...

Primary breast sarcomas (PBSs) are spectrum heterogeneous sarcomas in breast and the optimal treatment for them is still under discussion. Our study was to investigate clinical characteristics and identify potential prognostic factors for this rare malignancy. The authors retrospectively reviewed 38 patients with PBSs between October 2000 and February 2014 in FuDan University Shanghai Cancer Ce...

PROBLEM AND METHOD This paper takes a critical look at the present state of bicycle infrastructure treatment safety research, highlighting data needs. Safety literature relating to 22 bicycle treatments is examined, including findings, study methodologies, and data sources used in the studies. Some preliminary conclusions related to research efficacy are drawn from the available data and findin...

The travel source–sink phenomenon is a typical urban traffic anomaly that reflects the imbalanced dissipation and aggregation of human mobility activities. It useful for pertinently balancing facilities optimizing structures to accurately sense spatiotemporal ranges source–sinks, such as public transportation station optimization, sharing resource configurations, or stampede precautions among m...

This paper presents the KAIST interactive bicycle racing simulator system, which consists of a pair of bicycle simulators. The rider on the racing simulator experiences realistic sensations of motion, while being able to see the other bicycle simulator and having the audio-visual experience of riding in a velodrome or on the KAIST campus. The 2nd bicycle of the racing simulator system consists ...

Studies based on human mobility, including Bicycle Sharing System analysis, has expanded over the past few years. They aim to give insight of the underlying urban phenomena linked to city dynamics. This paper presents a generative count-series model using adapted Poisson mixtures to automatically analyse and find temporal-based clusters over the Vélib’ origin-destination flow-data. Such an appr...
