The effects of adult guidance and peer discussion on the development of children's representations: evidence from the training of pedestrian skills [PDF]
, 2005 It was hypothesised that practical training is effective in improving children's pedestrian skills because adult scaffolding and peer discussion during training specifically promote E3 level representation (linguistically-encoded, experientially-grounded,

Predicting pedestrian road-crossing assertiveness for autonomous vehicle control
International Conference on Intelligent Transportation Systems, 2018 Autonomous vehicles (AVs) must interact with other road users including pedestrians. Unlike passive environments, pedestrians are active agents having their own utilities and decisions, which must be inferred and predicted by AVs in order to control ...

Estimating preferences for different types of pedestrian crossing facilities [PDF]
, 2018 This paper reports the results of a study to understand the preferences of pedestrians towards using different types of road crossing facilities. A preliminary qualitative study found that people’s perceptions about crossing facilities are shaped by ...

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.In this experimental study, the mechanical properties of additively manufactured Ti‐6Al‐4V lattice structures of different geometries are characterized using compression, four point bending and fatigue testing. While TPMS designs show superior fatigue resistance, SplitP and Honeycomb lattice structures combine high stiffness and strength. The resulting

Pedestrians avoid busy roads: evidence from video surveys and bus stop data [PDF]
, 2016 This paper assesses the influence of motorised traffic on pedestrian mobility in an area in London surrounded by major roads. Pavement and crossing flows obtained by a video survey are analysed in comparison with data on bus stop usage.

Learning Negotiating Behavior Between Cars in Intersections using Deep Q-Learning [PDF]
, 2018 This paper concerns automated vehicles negotiating with other vehicles, typically human driven, in crossings with the goal to find a decision algorithm by learning typical behaviors of other vehicles.

Laser Metal Powder Deposition of Titanium Microalloyed HSLA Steel FeC0.12Si0.25Mn1.3
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.This study investigates the additive manufacturing of titanium‐doped high‐strength low‐alloy (HSLA) steel via laser metal deposition. It reveals distinct process‐structure relationships for elemental powder blends compared to prealloyed feedstocks.
