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.

Study on Driver Gaze Characteristics in Sight Distance Limited Section of Mountain Highway Based on Visual Information

open access: yesJournal of Mathematics, 2022
In order to study the gaze behavior characteristics of drivers in mountainous road sections with limited sight distance, the real vehicle test is carried out by using Smart Eye Pro 5.7 noninvasive eye tracker. Combined with the sight distance change rate

Research on Geometric Design Standards for Freeways under a Fully Autonomous Driving Environment

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
The formulation of the current geometric design standard for freeways considers the influence of the “human-vehicles-road-environment” system. In the fully autonomous environment, the driver has been liberated from the system, which means that the ...

Evaluation of 3d Coordination to Maximize Available Stopping Sight Distance in Two-Lane Rural Highways

open access: yesThe Baltic Journal of Road and Bridge Engineering, 2014
Sight distance is one of the most important factors of road safety since it allows the driver perceiving, at real time, road characteristics and its surroundings.

The Distance and Interstellar Sight Line to GX 339−4 [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2004
The distance to the black hole binary GX339-4 remains a topic of debate. We examine high-resolution optical spectra of the NaD lines resolving the velocity structure along the line of sight. We find this to be complex, with at least nine components, mostly blue-shifted, spanning a velocity range of nearly 200km/s.
