  2. 1. Reliability-Based Assessment and Optimization of High-Speed Railway Bridges

    Author : Reza Allahvirdizadeh; Raid Karoumi; Andréas Andersson; Daniel Straub; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; High-speed railway bridges; Bridge dynamics; Running safety; Passenger comfort; Structural reliability; Meta-models; Surrogate models; Adaptive sampling; Reliability-based design optimization; Höghastighetsjärnvägsbroar; Brodynamik; Trafiksäkerhet; Passagerarkomfort; Konstruktioners tillförlitlighet; Metamodeller; Surrogatmodeller; Adaptiv sampling; Tillförlitlighetsbaserad designoptimering; Structural Engineering and Bridges; Bro- och stålbyggnad;

    Abstract : Increasing the operational speed of trains has attracted a lot of interest in the last decades and has brought new challenges, especially in terms of infrastructure design methodology, as it may induce excessive vibrations. Such demands can damage bridges, which in turn increases maintenance costs, endangers the safety of passing trains and disrupts passenger comfort. READ MORE

    Abstract : Modern railway infrastructures, especially bridges, are exposed to significant vibrations with potential safety implications. In this context, previous studies have shown the inconsistency and inadequacy of some conventional design methods necessitaing them to be improved. The assessment of safety inherently deals with uncertainties. READ MORE

  5. 3. A systemic traffic accident model

    Author : Yu-Hsing Huang; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; trafikolyckor; trafiksäkerhet; traffic safety; traffic accidents; Computer science; Datavetenskap;

    Abstract : Accident models are essential for all efforts in safety engineering. They influence the investigation and analysis of accidents, the assessment of systems and the development of precautions. Looking at accident statistics, the trend for Swedish roads is not pointing towards increased safety. READ MORE

  6. 4. Surrogate Measures of Safety with a Focus on Vulnerable Road Users : An exploration of theory, practice, exposure, and validity

    Author : Carl Johnsson; Trafik och väg; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Trafiksäkerhet; Indirekta trafiksäkerhetsindikatorer; Oskyddade trafikanter; Videoanalys; Surrogate measures of safety; Traffic safety; Vulnerable road user safety; Traffic conflicts; video analysis;

    Abstract : Surrogate measures of safety (SMoS) are meant to function as tools to investigate traffic safety. The term surrogate indicates that these measures do not rely on crash data; instead, they focus on identifying safety critical events (or near-crashes) in traffic, which can be used as an alternative to crash records.

  7. 5. Effects of hearing loss on traffic safety and mobility

    Author : Birgitta Thorslund; Björn Lyxell; Björn Peters; Björn Lidestam; Håkan Alm; Statens väg- och transportforskningsinstitut; []
