Progress in pedestrian safety research

International Journal of Injury Control and Safety Promotion, 2020
This paper looks at the pedestrian safety issue and the research that has followed to understand and solve the problem of pedestrian safety in the last 120 years - since the time of the first reported pedestrian fatality in 1899. Researches have studied the epidemiology of pedestrian crashes, pedestrian behaviour, pedestrian movements and pedestrian ...

Child Pedestrian Safety

Pediatrics, 2023
The field of pedestrian safety has advanced with new evidence related to pediatric pedestrian education, the risks of distracted walking, the benefits of design and programming in safe routes to school, and the emergence of the “Vision Zero” strategy to eliminate all traffic fatalities and severe injuries while increasing safe, healthy, equitable ...

Evaluation of Pedestrian Safety

Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, 2013
Pedestrian-involved crashes that occurred in the city of San Francisco, California, over 6 years from 2002 to 2007 were analyzed to evaluate two key aspects of pedestrian safety: occurrence and severity. This analysis was done to identify locations with frequent occurrences of pedestrian-involved crashes and to examine various risk factors for the ...

Comprehensive approach to increased pedestrian safety in pedestrian—car accidents

Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part D: Journal of Automobile Engineering, 2003
At the Ford Forschungszentrum Aachen a finite element pedestrian humanoid model for use in pedestrian accident simulations was constructed in LS-DYNA3D. Validation of the humanoid model shows the ability to predict fractures and to examine the influence on injuries and injury reduction.

Pedestrian crossing detecting as a part of an urban pedestrian safety system

2010 IEEE Intelligent Vehicles Symposium, 2010
Although recent statistics demonstrate a decrease in pedestrian fatalities, the absolute number of accident related deaths is sufficiently high to justify research in the area of vulnerable road user protection. Research has shown that situation awareness, which requires a significant amount of context information, is critical to timely intervention ...

Safety Belt for Pedestrians

2017
The paper outlines an innovative and efficient pedestrian protection system. It is mobile phone based and easy to implement. It detects and evaluates context and surroundings of vulnerable road users to reduce their number of accidents, injuries and fatalities. Involved stakeholders and potential business scenarios are identified.
