Impact of speed humps of bicyclists

Safety Science, 2016
Abstract Speed hump is one of the most popular and economical traffic calming measures used globally. It induces shocks and vibrations in the vehicles passing over it. Hump aims to force the driver to reduce the vehicle speed to an optimum speed at which the discomfort is minimum.

Effects of speed humps on vehicle speed and pedestrian crashes in South Korea

Journal of Safety Research, 2020
Speeding is a crucial risk factor for pedestrian safety because it shortens reaction time while increasing the impact force in collisions. Various types of traffic calming measures to prevent speeding have been devised. A speed hump-a raised bump installed in the pavement-has been widely used for this purpose.To evaluate the effectiveness of speed ...

Effects of Speed Bumps and Humps on Motorcycle Speed Profiles

Advanced Materials Research, 2014
In developed countries, the use of speed humps and bumps have evolved from extensive research and testing which been properly designed and standardized. On the contrary in developing countries, no systematic and scientific studies have been carried out on that environment, especially the study on the effects that the motorcyclists response to the humps

Multiobjective shape optimization of speed humps

Structural and Multidisciplinary Optimization, 2008
This paper presents a new approach to the shape optimization of road speed humps. The proposed approach is based on multiobjective genetic optimization of the hump profile while taking into account the separation phenomenon, which occurs when the front tires of the vehicle momentarily lose contact with the road surface.

Dynamic considerations of speed control humps

Transportation Research Part B: Methodological, 1982
Abstract The objective of this study is to investigate the effects of hump parameters (cross section, dimensions, spacing, etc.) on the dynamic behaviour of the vehicle and the driver. Vehicle safety and driver comfort are most important in evaluating the effectiveness of speed control humps.

Evaluation of speed humps and tables in Qatar

Journal of Local and Global Health Science, 2015
Controlling the speed of vehicles on various roads and streets is crucial in order to maintain the safety of people and to prevent any possibility of injury or death. One technique that is widely used in Qatar to force road users to reduce their vehicles’ speed is the installation of speed humps and tables.

An efficient urban localization method based on speed humps

Sustainable Computing: Informatics and Systems, 2019
Abstract Outdoor localization is of great importance for driving navigation, attracting many research efforts in past decades. Prevailing GPS achieves meter-level localization accuracy under general outdoor conditions. Yet, GPS service performs poorly in urban canyons where skyscrapers block GPS signals and drain mobile phone battery quickly within ...
