BACKGROUND Cycling is a popular recreational activity and a common transportation option; however, cycling-related injuries can be fatal. There are few studies of cycling fatalities in Canada and none in a region as sparsely populated as Alberta. METHODS A chart review was conducted of cyclists involved in fatal crashes. Charts for deaths that occurred between 1998 and 2011 (inclusive) were i...

The recent discovery that the class VI myosin is minus end-directed (Schliwa, 1999; Wells et al., 1999) allows new mechanisms of actin-based motility to exist in cells. This will prompt reexamination of a broad range of cell movements previously difficult to explain by conventional force generating mechanisms. Myosins are a large family of molecular motor proteins divided into 15 or more classe...

objectives: movement is a continuous aspect of life and an important factor to achieve the goals and meet the needs. regarding the importance of infantś motor assessment and the large number of children with motor disorders, a valid and reliable test is required to help evaluation of motor development and provide appropriate interventions by therapists and educators. this study was implemented ...

The development of electric vehicles in Indonesia, especially the BEV (Battery Electric Vehicle) type, has received serious attention and support from government. This is evidenced by issuance Presidential Regulation Number 55 2019 concerning acceleration Battery-Based Motor Vehicle Program for Road Transportation. designed developed this study use an on-wheel BLDC type motor, Li-Ion batteries ...

Environmental protection initiatives are speeding up the replacement of present IC engine-based transportation system with an electric motor-driven system. In vehicles (EV), energy stored in batteries is used for traction vehicle and operation auxiliaries. The range was identified to be one major challenges faced by EV segment. optimization consumption best solution improvement EV. Auxiliaries ...

Heat pipes (HPs) are gaining increasing popularity in the propulsion motors of transportation electrification due to their remarkable thermal properties. However, inclination angle affects HP performance and, thus, results temperature nonuniformity, which may generate unbalanced stress on motor. Such an issue has received less attention date and requires corresponding solutions. This article pe...

The introduction of energy storage systems on motor rolling stock in order to improve the efficiency transportation process is not possible without performing preliminary calculations and experimental studies determine operating modes electric stock. As a result work performed data ED4M series trains various sections operation at different ambient temperatures, dependences power consumption for...

The Sections on Statistical Graphics and Computing of the American Association have a long history issuing Data Challenges with first one starting in 1982/1983. challenge is now an annual event where most them use data collected disseminated by U.S. government. set for 2016 Challenge was Department Transportation’s General Estimates System. GES National Highway Transportation Safety Administrat...

In this paper some research questions which potentially lie within the purview of the new discipline of Computational Transportation Science are presented. Some of these questions are no doubt old and jaded and some may rightly reside in a different research field (or be seen as engineering) but viable solutions to all of the issues presented are of vital importance to the efficacy of future tr...
