Geometric design consistency refers to the conformance of a proposed or existing freeway’s geometry with the driver’s expectancy. Considerable efforts have been undertaken to develop potential quantitative consistency measures and models to estimate them.

Geometric parameters of road alignment are fundamental elements defining permissible speed and vice versa. Unlike permissible speed, determined operating speed in upgrade projects has a significant impact on the safe movement of transport on the roads ...

DEPENDENCE OF CARRIAGEWAY CROSSFALL ON OPERATING SPEED [PDF]
This paper describes a rational approach to improve the existing guidelines for road design in the regions of Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Serbia in order to determine the carriageway crossfall in curves.

Experimental Analysis on Hairpin Curves
The consistency of a highway alignment refers to the conformity of its geometry to driver expectancy and to the improvement of the design consistency and consequently it is necessary to know real speed behavior in order to calculate highway safety.

ABSTRACT Background Latino children are projected to make up nearly one‐third of United States (US) children by 2060, and many of their caregivers speak Spanish. Prior survey research has documented communication difficulties for Spanish‐speaking caregivers of children with cancer, but contemporary qualitative data are limited.

ABSTRACT Background Therapeutic apheresis (TA) is an established treatment modality for hematologic, neurologic, and immunologic disorders, yet access remains severely limited in sub‐Saharan Africa. Donor apheresis, including platelet apheresis collection from healthy donors, represents an important complementary modality supporting blood product ...

In the last decades several studies were conducted in order to develop operating speed prediction models for two-lane rural roads. Many factors were found to affect the operating speed, such as radius of horizontal curve or curvature changes rate, grade,

ABSTRACT Background Maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients frequently suffer from frailty, characterized by reduced physical function and poor prognosis. Myokines, such as myonectin, secreted by muscle, are emerging regulators of systemic health. This study investigated the relationship between serum myonectin, adipokines (adiponectin, omentin), and ...
