  2. 1. Surviving a major bus crash : experiences from the crash and five years after

    Author : Isabelle Doohan; Britt-Inger Saveman; Ulf Björnstig; Per-Olof Michel; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : bus crash; major road traffic crash; survivors; injuries; consequences; experiences; recovery; social support; emergency care; compassionate care; long-term recovery;

    Abstract : Background Major road traffic crashes (RTCs) can have a significant impact on the survivors, their family, and their friends, as well as on emergency personnel, volunteers, and others involved. However, survivors’ perspectives are rare or missing in research on major RTCs in Sweden. READ MORE

  5. 3. Computer based statistical treatment in models with incidental parameters : inspired by car crash data

    Author : Anna Vadeby; Ola Hössjer; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; Mathematical model; Accident; Statistics; Analysis; Driver; Characteristics; MATHEMATICS; MATEMATIK; 812 Road: Collation of accident statistics; 812 Road: Collation of accident statistics;

    Abstract : Bootstrap and Markov chain Monte Carlo methods have received much attention in recent years. We study computer intensive methods that can be used in complex situations where it is not possible to express the likelihood estimates or the posterior analytically. The work is inspired by a set of car crash data from real traffic. READ MORE

  6. 4. Methods for Analysis of Naturalistic Driving Data in Driver Behavior Research

    Abstract : In the last several years, the focus of traffic safety research—especially when performed in association with the automotive industry—has shifted from preventing injury during a crash to avoiding the crash altogether or mitigating its effects. Pre-crash safety measures include intelligent safety systems (e.g. READ MORE

  7. 5. Understanding and prioritizing crash contributing factors
