Analysis and Evaluation of Trapezoidal Speed Humps and Their Impact on the Driver
The Baltic Journal of Road and Bridge Engineering, 2018 Operating speed is one of the leading safety risk factors, which increases accident risk and influences accident severity. Speeding is the leading cause of accidents and the most common road traffic offense.

Effects of speed hump on vehicle performance in the Sekondi-Takoradi Metropolis, Ghana
Cogent Engineering, 2022 Upsurge in pedestrian-involved crashes, in the Sekondi-Takoradi Metropolis, has led to the installation of speed humps to ameliorate the situation. This has, however, attracted public complaints citing ride discomfort, vehicle damage and safety concerns.

Critical Analysis of Speed Hump and Speed Bump and Geometric Design of Curved Speed Hump
Transportation Research Procedia, 2020 Abstract The motive of this study is to critically analyze speed humps and bumps on various accounts such as travel time delays, mileage reductions, exhaust emissions and propose a new traffic calming device, which can retain the positive impacts of speed humps and also reduce the disadvantages associated with them.

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.
