Effects of Automated Emergency Braking and Seatbelt Pre-Pretensioning on Occupant Injury Risks in High-Severity Frontal Crashes

open access: yesFrontiers in Future Transportation, 2022
In high-severity crashes, occupant protection is challenging. Automated Emergency Braking (AEB) and seatbelt pre-pretensioning (PPT) are means to improve occupant protection; the purpose of this study was to quantify their effects on occupant injury ...

Pretense and imagination [PDF]

open access: yesWIREs Cognitive Science, 2010
AbstractIssues of pretense and imagination are of central interest to philosophers, psychologists, and researchers in allied fields. In this entry, we provide a roadmap of some of the central themes around which discussion has been focused. We begin with an overview of pretense, imagination, and the relationship between them.

Optimization of cable pre-tensioning force in cable-stayed bridges by simplifying the structural model with a case study of Lali bridge [PDF]

open access: yesمهندسی عمران شریف, 2023
Cable-stayed bridges are bridges in which the deck is connected directly to the towers by diagonal cables. These bridges are mainly known by the length of the middle span, which often falls between the span lengths of suspension bridges and bridges ...
