Analysis of the Characteristic of Railroad(level-crossing) Accident Frequency [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Korean Society of Safety, 2014
Railroad traffic accident consists of train accident, level-crossing accident, traffic death and injury accident caused by train or vehicle, and it is showing a continuous downward trend over a long period of time. As a result of the frequency comparison of train accidents and level-crossing accidents using the railway accident statistics data of ...

Fatal accidents at railway level crossings in Great Britain 1946–2009 [PDF]

open access: yesAccident Analysis & Prevention, 2011
This paper investigates fatal accidents and fatalities at level crossings in Great Britain over the 64-year period 1946-2009. The numbers of fatal accidents and fatalities per year fell by about 65% in the first half of that period, but since then have remained more or less constant at about 11 fatal accidents and 12 fatalities per year.

Train set crash analysis with crash behavior of a coupler

open access: yesNihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2022
In the event of a collision accident, if a coupler is failed, the distance between railway adjacent vehicles cannot be maintained at a constant space, which may result in a collision between the ends of those railway vehicles.
