Walking pedestrian recognition
IEEE Transactions on Intelligent Transportation Systems, 2000In previous years, many methods providing the ability to recognize rigid obstacles-sedans and trucks-have been developed. These methods provide the driver with relevant information. They are able to cope reliably with scenarios on motorways. Nevertheless, not much attention has been given to image processing approaches to increase the safety of ...

Wobbling of Pedestrian Bridges
SIAM Journal on Applied Mathematics, 2022The author introduces a model for a single pedestrian walking on a suspension bridge in order to explain its oscillations. The pedestrian is modeled as a biped, which is essentially an inverted pendulum with a point mass on two massless legs. The bridge is only permitted to move in the lateral direction.

Benefits of pedestrianization and warrants to pedestrianize an area
Land Use Policy, 2016With the rapid increase in numbers of private vehicles on the road, many transportation related issues like congestion, crashes and injuries, pollution, noise etc. have grown very rapidly. Urban settlements like core CBD and heritage town, which were planned for NMT and pedestrians, are worst affected.

PEDESTRIAN is inspired by my daily walking routines and my relationship to the spaces in which I walk. Through additional instruction-guided walks with volunteers, this project examines the seemingly mundane travels of walkers and their relationship to and absorption of the space around them, and encourages a reconsideration of the environmental ...

Analysis of pedestrians’ behavior at pedestrian crossings
Safety Science, 2001This paper presents a methodology for studying pedestrians' behavior at pedestrian crossings. To help understand the behavior of pedestrians, separate models were developed and estimated for divided and undivided streets. Estimated models include waiting time at the curbside and the number of crossing attempts needed by the pedestrian to make a ...

Abstract Pedestrian deaths, the second largest category of motor vehicle deaths, include almost half of the traffic deaths for ages 3-9 and more than one fourth for ages 75 or older. In 1988, almost 7,000 people were killed as pedestrians, representing about one-seventh of all traffic-related deaths.

Pedestrians are the most vulnerable users of transport networks due to lack of protection and also due to particular characteristics and behaviour affecting the nature of their interaction with motorized traffic. The knowledge of pedestrian attitudes, perceptions and behaviour may thus assist policy makers in the better understanding of pedestrian ...

Pedestrian Conflicts, Pedestrian Comfort Levels, and Current Pedestrian Levels of Service
2013The current methodology of analyzing pedestrian levels of service stated in the KHCM (Korean Highway Capacity Manual) excludes pedestrian comfort from its primary measures of effectiveness, resulting in mismatching levels of service calculated with the KHCM and the ones stated by pedestrians on the basis of comfort. This can lead to undesirable designs
