An Urban System Mathematical Approach With Human Factor: The Case of Pedestrianization in a Consolidated Area [PDF]
Ecological ModellingPromoting pedestrianization in cities and other urban areas is a revitalization strategy to enhance sustainability and liveability in these regions. It improves urban mobility and contributes to the reduction of the environmental impact of transportation.

A Pedestrian-Pedestrian and Pedestrian-Vehicle Interaction Motion Model for Pedestrians Tracking
2014We propose a pedestrian-pedestrian and pedestrian-vehicle interaction motion model for predicting the motion of the pedestrians and tracking pedestrians in traffic scene mixed with cars. Pedestrians’ motion in such scenes are often complex and highly correlated with both pedestrians and vehicles nearby.

Pedestrian exposure and the risk of child pedestrian injury
Journal of Paediatrics and Child Health, 1994AbstractThe authors used data from the New Zealand Household Travel Survey to examine the extent to which children's pedestrian exposure varies with age, sex and household income. Pedestrian injury morbidity data were combined with pedestrian exposure data to examine age‐specific pedestrian injury risk. The annual number of road crossings for girls was

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.

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.

Transportation Research Part F: Traffic Psychology and Behaviour, 2013
Pedestrian behavior has been a subject of surveys carried out at two signalized pedestrian crossings, in the city of Doboj (BIH, Republic of Srpska). The analysis is made on the basis of video recordings, and includes behavior at pedestrian crossings, in various conditions (two locations, different vehicle flows, with or without a countdown display ...

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 ...

Pedestrian Behavior at Signalized Pedestrian Crossings
Journal of Transportation Engineering, 2013AbstractThe objective of this research was to define eventual differences in models of pedestrian behavior at signalized pedestrian crossings, with and without countdown displays. The outcomes of this work represent a contribution to the harmonization of positions on the effect of a countdown display on pedestrian behavior.

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
