New Type of Roundabout: Dual One-Lane Roundabouts on Two Levels with Right-Hand Turning Bypasses – ’’Target Roundabout’’

open access: yesPromet (Zagreb), 2013
The problems of low level traffic safety on multi-lane roundabouts have been resolved in various ways in different countries, usually by using alternative types of roundabouts that reduce the number of conflict points.

Case Study: Capacity Characteristics Comparison of Single-lane Roundabout and Turbo-roundabouts

open access: diamondProcedia Engineering, 2017
Abstract Turbo-roundabouts are new type of roundabouts that recently become more popular for their significant advantages. Due to their specific geometry of spiral leading circulatory lanes and raised lane dividers provide a high level of traffic safety while a relatively large capacity maintain.

Selective Modification of the Product Profile of Biocatalytic Hydrolyzed PET via Product‐Specific Medium Engineering

open access: yesChemSusChem, Volume 18, Issue 6, March 15, 2025.
The product profile of enzymatically hydrolyzed PET can be modified by medium engineering and thereby adapted to a desired product. TPA, MHET or BHET can be forced as the predominant product using a basic pH (blue), 25 % ethylene glycol (EG) and IsPETasewt (green) or ≥25 % EG and LCCICCG (pink), respectively.

Characteristics, properties and limitations of per‐ or polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) and fluoropolymers

open access: yesPolymer International, EarlyView.
An overview and categorization of man‐made per‐ or polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) including low‐molar‐mass and high‐molar‐mass fluorochemicals, and their international regulations is presented. Though certain PFASs are toxic, bioaccumulative and cross the human cellular membranes, others, such as fluoropolymers, are safe, reliable and involved in ...

New Type of Roundabout: Roundabout with “Depressed” Lanes for Right Turning – “Flower Roundabout”

open access: yesPromet (Zagreb), 2011
Recently, many of the foreign traffic-safety analyses point out the low level of traffic safety in multi-lane roundabouts. This problem is resolved in several ways in different countries; however, the solution, whereby the number of conflict points is ...

Signalized Turbo Roundabouts: A Study into the Applicability of Traffic Signals on Turbo Roundabouts

open access: green, 2013
Since the 1980s, the modern single-lane roundabout has been applied in the Dutch road network. The roundabout offered major safety benefits compared to the conventional signalized intersection, however, it also required more space.
