Flood studies generally assume bathymetry as steady, while in reality it is constantly changing due to sediment transport. This study seeks to quantify the impact of different lake bathymetry conditions on flood dynamics. The Hydrotel and Telemac2D models are used to simulate floods for a lake with bathymetries from multiple year surveys. The bathymetries differ in bed elevation due to sediment accumulation and/or remobilisation. Results show that bathymetric differences produce a more noticeable effect for moderate flows than for maximum flows. During moderate flows, shallower bathymetries induce higher water levels and larger water extents. For peak flows, differences in water levels and extent are practically negligible for the different bathymetries tested. Higher water levels during moderate flows could produce longer flooding times and affect the community’s perception of flood impacts.","PeriodicalId":9414,"journal":{"name":"Canadian Journal of Civil Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2024-07-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141801831","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Specifically, three major outcomes of reliability models were investigated: temporal distributions of crashes, reliability score, and expected number of crashes, using 20-year data (2001-2020) of crashes recorded on the Saskatchewan highway network. A series of reliability models were developed for crashes by crash severity, vehicle involvement, and highway type. First, the temporal distributions of crashes on each segment were fit to a statistical distribution. Second, the reliability scores were used to rank the high crash risk segments. Third, the mean expected crash frequency was used to develop network-wide safety performance functions for total and fatal crashes in urban and rural highway segments using Poisson-Tweedie regression models. The developed PTw models showed that the presence of trucks in the traffic composition has a significant effect on crash frequency, especially for urban highway segments.","PeriodicalId":9414,"journal":{"name":"Canadian Journal of Civil Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2024-07-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141799309","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study introduces an empirical Bayes (EB) observational before–after approach to address these challenges, specifically examining the impact of a widely used safety countermeasure: flashing lights, bells, and gates (FLBG). The research covers a total 171 FLBG crossings with pre-implementation conditions varying between standard reflective crossing signs and flashing lights and bells, utilizing collision data from 2000 to 2012 for analysis. This study is the first to substantiate quantitatively the effectiveness of FLBG treatment in improvising the safety of HRGCs and show that the effect is dependent of crossing characteristics, such as track angle, pavement conditions, and train speed limits. These findings can provide valuable support to decision-makers, enabling them to make more effective decisions for grade crossing safety improvement projects.","PeriodicalId":9414,"journal":{"name":"Canadian Journal of Civil Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2024-07-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141808658","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The fresh properties were studied using slump, fresh density and air content tests, while the hardened properties were assessed using compressive and flexural strengths, ultrasonic pulse velocity, water absorption, and chemical acid attack tests. The results obtained revealed that the addition of marble waste fine aggregate significantly improved the properties of high-performance concrete and increased its resistance to chemical acid attacks.

It used four distributions: gamma, exponential, negative binomial, and log-normal, and results are compared with the LS approach. Initially, synthetic data is generated for bottom-up cracking to demonstrate the effectiveness of MLE over the LS approach. Finally, measured data for two hundred and fifty-six new flexible pavements is used from MDOT’s PMS database to calibrate and validate transfer functions. Resampling methods are combined with MLE to improve its robustness. The results show that overall, MLE outperforms the LS approach for synthetic and measured data. The difference is more evident in the case of bottom-up cracking data, which does not follow a normal distribution.

Driving simulators, widely applied in rear-end collision studies, provide a secure environment to explore human errors, which are not observable through microsimulation tools. These simulators also facilitate the examination of driving behaviour in the presence of connected vehicles. This study aims to identify driver-related factors contributing to rear-end collisions in a driving simulator and to detect potential tailgaters behind a connected vehicle with connected cruise control. Using case-control logistic regression, participants with the potential to be involved in rear-end collisions are considered potential tailgaters, while non-potential participants serve as controls. The results reveal statistically significant factors, such as headway time and maximum brake mean values, in relation to rear-end collisions. Furthermore, employing regression outputs, log relative risk and survival function, with predefined thresholds effectively identifies potential tailgaters, achieving accuracy rates of over 90% and 97%, respectively.","PeriodicalId":9414,"journal":{"name":"Canadian Journal of Civil Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2024-07-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141658230","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Police-reported truck-involved crashes on rural highway segments of Alberta, Canada, were used to develop truck SPFs for four crash severity levels: total, fatal, personal injury (PI), and property damage only (PDO). Three settings of the Poisson-Tweedie Regression modelling approach representing Poisson, geometric Poisson, negative binomial distributions were used to develop truck SPFs; the negative binomial distribution was deemed as the most appropriate distribution to model truck-involved crashes for all crash severity levels. The CMF for poor visibility (CMF=1.5) suggests that poor visibility increases PI type truck-involved crashes on rural two-lane two-way highway segments by 50% as compared to the number of such crashes attributed to crash causes other than transportation hazards.

The best-performing model to predict the DIS for Itanagar was Gradient Boosting Trees (GBT). ‘Causes of Accident’ variable had shown maximum impact on the DIS. In the case of Imphal, it was the GBT, Extra Trees, and Random Forest models across all k-fold cross-validation for train ratios 0.70, 0.80, and 0.90, respectively. ‘Causes of Accident’, and ‘Vehicle Type’ had shown maximum impact on the DIS.
