ANALYSIS OF PEDESTRIAN BEHAVIOR AT CROSSWALKS AND EVALUATION OF FUNCTIONING PEDESTRIAN CROSSINGS [PDF]

open access: yesTransport Problems, 2021
Every year, on Polish roads, many deaths occur. In the best case scenario, only the vehicle is damaged. The number of road accidents is extremely high.

BBN for pedestrians

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2004
The simplest, `standard' model of Big Bang Nucleosynthesis (SBBN) assumes three light neutrinos (N_nu = 3) and no significant electron neutrino asymmetry, leaving only one adjustable parameter: the baryon to photon ratio eta. The primordial abundance of any one nuclide can, therefore, be used to measure the baryon abundance and the value derived from ...

Managing Large-Scale Mapping and Localization for Pedestrians using Inertial Sensors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Pedestrian navigation in indoor environments without a pre-installed infrastructure still presents many challenges. There are different approaches that address the problem using prior knowledge about the environment when the building plans or similar

Effect of Interactions between Vehicles and Mid-Block Crosswalks on Traffic Flow and CO2 Emission

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
Unsignalized mid-block raised crosswalks have been adopted as inclusive transport strategies, providing humps to reduce vehicles’ speed to promote drivers to yield to pedestrians.

A microscopic simulation model for pedestrian-pedestrian and pedestrian-vehicle interactions at crosswalks

open access: yesPLOS ONE, 2017
This study aims to develop a microscopic pedestrian behavior model considering various interactions on pedestrian dynamics at crosswalks. Particularly, we take into account the evasion behavior with counter-flow pedestrians, the following behavior with leader pedestrians, and the collision avoidance behavior with vehicles.

Autonomous pedestrians

open access: yesGraphical Models, 2005
We address the difficult open problem of emulating the rich complexity of real pedestrians in urban environments. Our artificial life approach integrates motor, perceptual, behavioral, and cognitive components within a model of pedestrians as individuals.

Crossing the street in front of an autonomous vehicle: An investigation of eye contact between drivengers and vulnerable road users

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2022
Communication between road users is a major key to coordinate movement and increase roadway safety. The aim of this work was to grasp how pedestrians (Experiment A), cyclists (Experiment B), and kick scooter users (Experiment C) sought to visually ...

Improving the safety of distracted pedestrians with in-ground flashing lights. A railway crossing field study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Current signage at intersections is designed for attentive pedestrians who are looking ahead. Such signage may not be sufficient when distracted by smartphones.

Dynamics and causes of crashes on Lithuanian roads

open access: yesMokslas: Lietuvos Ateitis, 2023
Lithuania is the only European Union country that has reduced the number of road deaths by more than 50% from 2011 to 2021. However, even with significant progress, Lithuania has 53 deaths per 1 million inhabitants and Lithuania is still behind the EU ...

Conflict in Pedestrian Networks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Encouraging pedestrian activity is increasingly recognised as beneficial for public health, the environment and the economy. As our cities become more crowded, there is a need for urban planners to take into account more explicitly pedestrian needs. The term that is now in use is that a city should be ‘walkable’.
