Sight distance analysis of urban intersections using geospatial technologies

open access: yes, 2022
La distancia de visibilidad es un factor clave en la seguridad vial y, por tanto, en el diseño geométrico de carreteras. La estimación de la visibilidad disponible en carreteras existentes es necesaria para asegurar que los conductores cuenten con suficiente información para llevar a cabo maniobras requeridas para la conducción.

Goal Displacement and Goal Conflicts in Circular Innovation Initiatives: Types and Mitigation Practices

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Many firms set ambitious sustainability goals but these are frequently “displaced” by proxy goals that are easier to track and measure. However, the specific types of goal conflicts that follow from this displacement are poorly understood. We conducted a case study of circular innovation initiatives at a global MedTech company and identified ...

ESG Decoupling Phenomenon: A Systematic and Bibliometric Analysis

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT ESG decoupling, defined as the gap between a firm's ESG disclosures and its actual practices, poses a critical challenge to corporate sustainability. Using the PRISMA protocol, 451 articles were selected for a comprehensive bibliometric and systematic literature review to map the intellectual structure and thematic evolution of the research on

Left-Turn Sight Distance Models For Signalized Intersections With Different Configurations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
At signalized-intersections where protected left-turn signals are not provided, simultaneous opposing leftturn vehicles attempting the turn maneuver may cause insufficient sight distance for each other.

Keeping their powder dry: Purity, pollution, and handgun ownership among Jewish women in Israel

open access: yesFeminist Anthropology, EarlyView.
Abstract This article examines the gendered practices through which Jewish women in Israel experience and negotiate personal handgun ownership in everyday life. Drawing on interviews, participant observation in gun‐related spaces, and analysis of women‐only online forums, we explore the expanding participation of Jewish women in civilian gun ownership,

Aftasten/Tantear: A sensorial, coalitional wayfinding among Muslim runners

open access: yesFeminist Anthropology, EarlyView.
Abstract Muslim recreational runners in Muslim‐minority settings that take up running as their preferred form of leisure indicate that they feel they have to navigate a sense of exclusion when running outdoors. This article explores the process of exploration and sensing in public, represented by the Dutch verb aftasten, to investigate the way Muslim ...

Analysis of sight distances at urban intersections from a vulnerable users’ approach: A case study

open access: yesTransportation Research Procedia, 2020
Abstract Road elements are predominantly designed to safely accommodate motorized users. Urban roads and streets, unlike highways, contain very dissimilar users and might have higher points of conflict. Nowadays, due to the increasing use of vehicle sharing systems, personal transportation devices and bicycle-friendly policies, some urban streets ...

The Evolution of Autonomous Systems for Planetary Cave Exploration: A Review

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The exploration of Subsurface Access Points (SAPs), such as lava tubes on the Moon and Mars, has gained significant interest due to their potential as stable environments shielded from surface radiation and temperature extremes. These sites are considered high‐value targets for detecting water and signs of ancient life, and assessing their ...

Classification of tree species and standing dead trees in Boreal forests using UAV‐based RGB, multispectral, and LiDAR point clouds

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
We evaluated single‐ and multi‐sensor UAV approaches for classifying tree species and standing dead trees in boreal forests, focusing on key biodiversity indicators such as European aspen. Using spectral and structural features extracted from RGB, multispectral (MSP), and LiDAR point clouds for 1,205 field‐measured trees, we compared classification ...
