During the 10-year period from 2008 to 2017, a total of 1 234 fatal single-vehicle roadway departure (SV-RwD) crashes occurred on R2L roads in Louisiana, out of which 635 (51.5 %) crashes occurred on curved segments. Therefore, it is critical to investigate the causes of SV-RwD crashes, specifically those that occur on curved segments. This study aimed to investigate the ‘association knowledge’ of the factors contributing to SV-RwD crashes on R2L curved segments in Louisiana using fatal and injury crash data collected from 2008 to 2017. The study utilized Cluster Correspondence Analysis (CCA), a robust joint dimension reduction and clustering method for handling high-dimensionality and multicollinearity of crash data, to achieve this objective. Based on the cluster validation measures, the study identified five clusters with specific traits, including alcohol-impaired male drivers with no seatbelt usage, young (15–24 years old) female drivers’ crash involvement in cloudy weather conditions, animal-involved crashes in rainy weather conditions, crashes occurring on hillcrest locations under cloudy weather conditions, and crashes in the dark with the presence of streetlights and higher traffic volume. Furthermore, young (15–24 years) female drivers were identified in most clusters, implying that this specific age group of female drivers requires special consideration when dealing with SV-RwD collisions on R2L curved segments. To improve safety on R2L curved segments, policymakers can use the findings of this study to develop targeted countermeasures.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":52282,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Transportation Science and Technology","volume":"15 ","pages":"Pages 298-318"},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135849512","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study examines traffic conditions in shared space by answering these research questions. More specifically, it uses Amalias Street in Nafplio Greece as a case study. This road is divided into two main sections, namely: the conventional road section and the shared space road section, allowing meaningful comparisons. The collected data are further analyzed by developing multiple linear regression models that predict pedestrian crossings and mean car speeds in both sections. This study discusses model outputs with the literature to export valid conclusions. The results show that pedestrian crossings were increased in shared space when vehicle headways were high. Shared space results in a significant drop in car speeds that is confirmed by previous studies; surprisingly, the variance of car speeds was also reduced, leading to a more homogenous driving behavior. Pedestrian crossing rate significantly influences car speeds in shared space, while this relationship was not significant in the conventional road section. Shared space seems to calm traffic speed and allow coexistence even when motorizing traffic dominates.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":52282,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Transportation Science and Technology","volume":"15 ","pages":"Pages 122-135"},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46610333","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In such situations, non-driving related tasks may have a great impact on the safety of drivers’ critical intervention behavior thus leading to traffic accidents. Therefore, exploring the impacts of non-driving-related tasks on drivers’ critical intervention behavior, quantifying and predicting the corresponding risks have become important. In this paper, driving simulation experiments are carried out to obtain the vehicle driving state data and visual behavior information of drivers during the autonomous driving scenarios that require critical interventions. To construct the risk quantification model for drivers’ critical intervention behavior, the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method and the criteria importance though intercriteria correlation (CRITIC) weighting method are employed. Then, for risk prediction, a model is constructed based on the visual behavior information before the occurrences of intervention. Multivariate logistic regression (MLR) and support vector machine are compared. The results show that non-driving tasks significantly postpone driver's critical intervention responses, increasing crash risks of the driving. For prediction, SVM performs better than the MLR in terms of metrics including the precision, the recall, and the overall accuracy. This paper examines the risks during situations requiring drivers’ critical intervention, associated with different non-driving tasks, which has remained much unexplored in the previous research. The methodology of this paper can be applied to smart vehicle systems in alerting vehicles for take-over reactions, with recognizing and predicting potential risks.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":52282,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Transportation Science and Technology","volume":"15 ","pages":"Pages 1-23"},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44685480","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

ADRT offers benefits such as flexible stops and routes and comfortable seats, but it also involves risks due to the vehicles being driverless. This paper particularly investigates users’ preferences and attitudes towards ADRT, and mode choice behavior between ADRT buses and traditional buses. A survey with Likert scale statements and stated preference (SP) choice scenarios is designed and conducted to explore users’ attitudes towards the safety risks of autonomous vehicles (AVs), social concerns, service flexibility concerns when using AVs, interest in new things, and shuttle mode choices. An integrated choice and latent variable (ICLV) model is adopted to explore users’ psychological factors through latent variables and to integrate them into mode choice behavioral modeling. Estimated results indicate that users’ attitudes towards AV safety risks, their social concerns, and their flexibility concerns with ADRT strongly influence their mode choices and are strongly related to sociodemographic and travel-related factors such as age, gender, income, education, number of family members. In general, a young age, a high education level, a higher income, private car ownership, and better knowledge of AVs are positively related to attitudes towards ADRT. Females, users from large families, and users with driving licenses or long commuting times are less willing to adopt ADRT. The study's outcomes highlight significant heterogeneities among users and can be highly valuable for policymakers, such as government authorities, in providing social support and designing policies targeting specific population groups.

Freight truck-related crash is one of these externalities and impacts urban freight transportation most drastically. Previous studies have mainly focused on correlation analyses of influencing factors based on crash density/count data, but have paid little attention to the inherent uncertainties of freight truck-related crashes (FTCs) from a spatial perspective. While establishing an interpretable analysis model for freight truck-related accidents that considers uncertainties is of great significance for promoting the robust development of urban freight transportation systems. Hence, this study proposes the concept of FTC hazard (FTCH), and employs the Bayesian neural network (BNN) model based on stochastic variational inference to model uncertainty. Considering the difficulty in interpreting deep learning-based models, this study introduces the local interpretable modelagnostic explanation (LIME) model into the analysis framework to explain the results of the neural network model. This study then verifies the feasibility of the proposed analysis framework using data from California from 2011 to 2020. Results show that FTCHs can be effectively modeled by predicting confidence intervals for effects of built environment factors, in particular demographics, land use, and road network structure. Results based on LIME values indicate the spatial heterogeneity in influence mechanisms on FTCHs between areas within the metropolitan regions and alongside the freeways. These findings may help transport planners and logistic managers develop more effective measures to avoid potential negative effects brought by FTCHs in local communities.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":52282,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Transportation Science and Technology","volume":"15 ","pages":"Pages 181-197"},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46036046","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Subsequently, we employed MATLAB to analyze the power spectral characteristics of the vibrational response in different parts of the aircraft. Lastly, we examined the effects of taxiing speed, aircraft type, runway roughness, and lift on the aircraft's vibration. Our findings indicate that the distribution of vibration power spectral density (PSD) exhibits multiple peaks, correlating with the degrees of freedom of the aircraft.

High-frequency excitation impacts the pilot and nose landing gear more significantly than the passenger and main landing gear. Absent the consideration of lift, increased taxiing speed amplifies the impact of roughness excitation on aircraft taxiing safety. Larger aircrafts are more sensitive to long-wave roughness.
