Abstract:

This article deals with issues in the field of traffic engineering. According to its assumptions, traffic is a system consisting of three inseparable elements which are man, vehicle and road. In this article, the author focuses on the relationship between two of these elements: human as a road user and a path that should be a subordinate of the user’s capabilities and convenience. The first part of the article is an introduction to the topic of the article. There are presented the data on the amount of road traffic accidents caused by human factors and the categories of errors committed by dri

Abstract:

Roundabout installations are becoming common practice among DOTs and other local governments due to their superior safety attributes compared to other conventional at-grade intersections, especially stop-control and uncontrolled intersections. Current U.S. national guidelines for roundabout illumination recommend systematic illumination for all roundabouts. This recommendation might become a potential hindrance to desired widespread installations due to implied financial costs, especially in rural areas because the competing stop-control and uncontrolled intersections can be kept unlit.

Abstract:

Safety interventions must be approached in a holistic manner, by taking cognisance of the organisational system in which accidents present themselves. Thus, a need to understand the individual in context of the organisational system that he/she functions in exists. This study focuses on the relationship between attitudes, beliefs, intention, perception, control and the propensity of employees to engage in unsafe behaviour, with a view towards improving safety statistics. In this regard the study investigated the construct validity of a Safety Survey instrument, based on the responses (n=450) o

Abstract:

A field study investigated the relevancy of certain theories in applied psychology for increasing vehicle safety belt use by children. Five different intervention activities applied either extrinsic rewards, or focused on the development of intrinsic motivation (e.g., personal commitment, awareness, active participation). The subjects were 138 children, aged five to eleven years, who attended five 30-min safety belt intervention activities as part of a summer recreation program conducted at three elementary schools. Safety belt use by children and their parents was directly observed and coded

Abstract:

Most of the concrete buttress dams in Sweden were built from the 1950s till the1980s based on the traditional method of analyses. Those structures are reinforced and heavy in structure. Their height to thickness ratio being large makes them prone to crack during their lifespan. The presence of these cracks make the reinforcements used in the buttress dam susceptible to corrosion due to the water entering through the cracked areas. Therefore, studying the effect of cracks and corrosion regarding the safety of dams is important and should be carried out before the dams fail to function. However,

Abstract:

Abstract Safety factors used by engineers in the design of corrosion resistant thermoset and thermoplastic process equipment can vary relative to the materials of construction, the type of equipment, and the anticipated service conditions. A number of standards from ASTM and ANSI/ASME are available to guide engineers in determining appropriate mechanical properties for a given material, choosing an appropriate factor of safety, and in testing prototype parts, as appropriate. Using the various plastics industry specifications with knowledge of the service conditions, the design engineer can cho

Abstract:

Abstract This paper introduces two simplified equations, "Nori formulae," for calculating maximum allowable stress (MAS) in mechanical design engineering. These formulae eliminate the need for traditional safety margins or factors of safety along with factored values across applications ranging from safety pins to spacecraft components. The first formula determines the maximum allowable stress in tension, while the second addresses the maximum allowable stress in shear. The Nori formulae were developed by incorporating fundamental mechanical properties of steel: ultimate tensile strength, yiel

Abstract:

Abstract Any decision to repair an area of corrosion must include an appropriate safety factor. The current published guidance on safety factors in pipeline codes1-5 is inconsistent and in some codes arbitrary. In assessing the significance of corrosion in a pipeline and selecting an appropriate factor of safety the following should be considered: -the location of the pipeline in terms of density of the surrounding population-the hazardous nature of the product being transported-the maximum operating stress level of the pipeline-the uncertainty associated with the pipe material properties and
