Vehicle operating speed is a crucial factor for road safety, as it strictly affects occurrence and
severity of crashes. Usually, 85th percentile of the operating speed distributions (ie, V 85) in …

The geometric elements of the road, such as tangents and curves, play a vital role in road
safety because significant crashes are reported on the horizontal curves and tangent-to …

Punching shear capacity is an important parameter in designing structural elements.
Accurate estimation of punching shear capacity typically requires rigorous calculation …

The primary aim of transportation is to facilitate movement of people and goods in a safe and
efficient manner. To meet the objectives of transportation, there are many challenges from …

The present study aims to develop vehicle type-wise operating-speed prediction (OSP)
models for heterogeneous traffic on two-lane rural highways in Indian hilly terrains. For the …

Several past studies developed acceleration/deceleration rate models as a function of a
single explanatory variable. Most of them were spot speed studies with speeds measured at …

In car-dominated urban areas, shared electric micro-mobility offers a sustainable alternative
to decarbonise and reshape mobility paradigms. This paper presents a comprehensive …

An inferred design speed (IS) is the maximum vehicle speed for which all critical design
speed-related criteria are met at a particular location, which is widely recognized as an …

Horizontal curves on mountainous roads are highly crash-prone and geometric consistency
is vital in their design. The drivers' lateral friction demand will be significantly affected if there …

Driver error in distinguishing preceding and upcoming horizontal curves can lead to single-
vehicle fatal crashes. The 3D perspective views of different horizontal curve stimuli were …
