Statistical Analysis On The Effects Of Environmental Factors On Bridge Condition Rating In Texas, Mohammad Wasif Quadri Jan 2024

Statistical Analysis On The Effects Of Environmental Factors On Bridge Condition Rating In Texas, Mohammad Wasif Quadri

Civil Engineering Theses - Archive

The development of predictive models for bridge deterioration is crucial for ensuring the longevity and safety of transportation infrastructure. Bridge condition degradation is heavily influenced by environmental conditions. This research integrates various environmental variables such as rainfall, humidity, air temperature, coastal influence, and freezing effects to generate environmental risk scores. These scores help in developing environmental risk zones within the Texas region. Deck condition ratings from the National Bridge Inventory (NBI) database are used to develop deterioration models using linear regression and the Markov method. The results highlight the impact of different environmental risk zones on bridge degradation patterns and …

A Study On Effect Of Information From Navigation System On Driving Behavior, Mio Suzuki, Shota Moriya Jan 2024

A Study On Effect Of Information From Navigation System On Driving Behavior, Mio Suzuki, Shota Moriya

Kentucky Transportation Center Presentations

In recent years, navigation services using smartphone applications have become common, and while the number of users is increasing, accidents and violations have begun to occur due to drivers being so focused on obtaining information that they cannot see their surroundings or the information itself is incorrect. Therefore, this study focuses on the fact that stress on drivers caused by such guidance can also be a cause of accidents, and aims to understand the understandability of information and driving behavior of navigation systems and stress by using a driving simulator. From the questionnaire survey by the users, it was found …


An Exploratory Analysis Of Fatal Vehicle Crashes In Urban And Rural Kansas In Relation To Identified Golder Hour Gaps In Hospital Coverage, Mason W. Lipford, Grace N. Whisler Lipford, Gregory L. Newmark, Eric J. Fitzsimmons Jan 2024

An Exploratory Analysis Of Fatal Vehicle Crashes In Urban And Rural Kansas In Relation To Identified Golder Hour Gaps In Hospital Coverage, Mason W. Lipford, Grace N. Whisler Lipford, Gregory L. Newmark, Eric J. Fitzsimmons

Kentucky Transportation Center Presentations

The state of Kansas is a relatively rural state with a majority of highway/interstate miles through farmland and low populated areas. These rural areas can be hot spots for crashes to occur and the lack of hospitals and emergency response nearby can make these types of crashes turn deadly. Few studies have been done on this topic especially for the state of Kansas. As the Department of Transportation is pushing to the “Drive to Zero” goal, pinpointing the harmful factors to indicate where improvements are needed to reduce the number, and severity of crashes is an important first step. Using …

Analyses And Reconstructions Of Crash Scenarios For Class 8, Long-Haul Trucks, Monish Dev Sudhakhar, Rohan Khaire, Jeffrey Wishart, Yan Chen

Kentucky Transportation Center Presentations

Knowledge and analysis of crash scenarios from naturalistic driving data can provide insight into the causes of crashes and thus motivate or benefit the future design of automated driving systems (ADSs). The circumstances commonly resulting in crashes for human-driven, light-duty vehicles were previously compiled into the 37 pre-crash scenarios by NHTSA [1]. However, crash analyses and reconstructions for Class 8 long-haul trucks have not yet been explored in the literature. The Crash Investigation Sampling System (CISS) database has been used as the crash data source for compiling a dataset containing details on a nationally representative sample of thousands of heavy-duty …
