The impacts of neighbourhood traffic management [PDF]
, 2012 A major traffic-related problem faced by residents is speeding, which not only causes safety concerns, but also noise issues. Traffic calming is a much favoured traffic management tool employed by road controlling authorities to primarily reduce ...

A large-scale study on the speed-calming effect of speed humps [PDF]
Transactions on Transport Sciences, 2020 Inappropriate speeding is one of the main causes for traffic-related injuries and fatalities. Studies have shown that more than 50 % of Danish car drivers regularly speed on urban roads and nearly 75 % of them speed on rural roads. Physical speed-calming measures, particularly speed humps, are widely used to reduce speeding in urban areas in the Danish

Traffic flow parameters development modelling at traffic calming measures located on arterial roads
Ain Shams Engineering Journal, 2021 Controlling the speed of vehicles is essential in some parts of the roadway. One way of controlling speed is to use static control devices i.e. traffic calming measures, which reduce the speeds of vehicles and thereby increase safety, while produce ...

Humping Formation and Suppression in High-Speed Laser Welding
Materials, 2022 Increasing welding speed can promote the productivity of laser welding. However, humping defects often occur, which limits the application of this strategy. The existing explanations for the humping formation remain vague, and mitigation and suppression methods are limited.

Movement of a railway car rolling down a classification hump with a tailwind
MATEC Web of Conferences, 2018 The purpose of this paper is to calculate kinematic parameters of a railway car moving with a tailwind for designing a classification hump. The calculation of kinematic parameters is based on the d'Alembert principle, and the physical speed and distance ...

VECM estimations of the PPP reversion rate revisited: the conventional role of relative price adjustment restored [PDF]
, 2011 Cheung et al. (2004) use a vector error correction model (VECM) for the current float nominal exchange rate and the relative price data and claim that the sluggish Purchasing Power Parity (PPP) reversion is primarily driven by the nominal exchange rate ...
