Empirical modeling of the relationship between decision sight distance and stopping sight distance based on AASHTO [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Transport, 2018
The paper introduces implementation of highways' stopping sight distance (SSD) and decision sight distance (DSD) based on AASHTO modeling assumptions. SSD characterizes the necessary distance for highway vehicles to stop safely in front from an obstacle.

A New Stopping Sight Distance Model and Fuzzy Reliability Analysis Comparison

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2022
Aiming at the problem that the existing stopping sight distance model is out of sync with the development of the times, this paper puts forward a new stopping sight distance model considering the fuzziness and randomness of design parameters, and deduces

Intersection Sight Distance Characteristics of Turbo Roundabouts

open access: yesDesigns, 2021
A turbo roundabout uses spiral circulatory roads for effectively counteracting the problems faced in modern multilane roundabouts. First developed in 1996, the turbo roundabout has an advantage over the conventional roundabout regarding capacity and ...

Revision of Calculation of Stopping Sight Distance

open access: yesThe Baltic Journal of Road and Bridge Engineering, 2011
Stopping Sight Distance (SSD) is a critical parameter for roadway geometric design and safety evaluation. It experienced several revisions in AASHTO Green Books (A Policy on Geometric Design of Highways and Streets) since 1940.

Sight distances at unsignalized intersections: a comparison of guidelines and requirements for human drivers and autonomous vehicles [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Transport, 2021
Many traffic accidents are caused by unforeseen and unexpected events in a site that was hidden from the driver's eyes. Road design parameters determining required visibility are based on relationships formulated decades ago.

Calculating TIN-Based 3D Sight Distance and Its Evaluation on Drivers Free-Flow Speed

open access: yesShock and Vibration, 2021
Sight distance during driving may be limited by side factors such as mountain slopes or trees and buildings in horizontal curves and by the dome of the arc in vertical curves, and the night vision also can be limited in the sag vertical curves by the ...

Elements of perfect order rate research in logistics chains [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Transport, 2019
Perfect order rate (POR) is one of the superior measures of the logistics processes quality. POR is at the top of the hierarchy of key performance indicators (KPI) in supply chain and is considered as difficult to define and measure.
