Evaluating pedestrian behavior factors related to road safety using analytic hierarchy process and Kendall’s correlation in a fuzzy environment

Transportation Research Interdisciplinary Perspectives
Road safety is a function of multiple factors that affect roads, and these factors compromise road safety. To Evaluate the Pedestrian Behavior Criteria related to road safety, the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) approach with Triangular Fuzzy Sets (TFS)

A Computationally Efficient Finite Element Pedestrian Model for Head Safety: Development and Validation

Applied Bionics and Biomechanics, 2019
Head injuries are often fatal or of sufficient severity to pedestrians in vehicle crashes. Finite element (FE) simulation provides an effective approach to understand pedestrian head injury mechanisms in vehicle crashes.

Development of Pedestrian Level of Service (PLOS) for Jaywalking Pedestrians at Unsignalised Intersections on Urban Arterials Using Ann &Amp; Clustering: A Case Study in India

Communications
In a developing country like India where jaywalking is prevalent than using designated crosswalks, pedestrian safety is a major concern. Development of pedestrian level of service (PLOS) is essential for monitoring pedestrian safety for these manoeuvres.
