Abstract Since the end of 2017 the Lithuanian Road Administration (LRA) has taken over the authority to issue permits for oversized and heavy vehicles using the national significance roads from the former State Road Transport Inspectorate. LRA has launched a pilot project for automated authorising system, in which application is submitted by filling electronic form and providing a driving route on a map. The route in most cases is automatically approved by the system. If there are any restrictions on the route or in case of larger parameters of a vehicle, an LRA specialist shall review it. Upon coordination, the system automatically calculates a charge for the use of roads by abnormal transport and informs the applicant. The applicant pays this charge via electronic banking, and the system automatically issues a permit (such payments make up to 90 %). If the charge is paid by standard transfer, the system automatically issues a permit after LRA employee registers payment details.

Road transport holds for the largest share in the freight transport sector in Europe. This work is carried out by heavy vehicles of various types. It is assumed that, in principle, transport should take place on the main road connections, such as motorways or national roads. Their share in the polish road infrastructure is not dominant. Rural and communal roads roads are the most prevalent. This fact formed the basis of the exhaust emissions and fuel consumption tests of heavy vehicles in real operating conditions. A set of vehicles (truck tractor with a semi-trailer) meeting the Euro V emission norm, transporting a load of 24,800 kg, was selected for the tests. The research was carried out on an non-urban route, the test route length was 22 km. A mobile Semtech DS instrument was used, which was used to measure the exhaust emissions. Based on the obtained results, the emission characteristics were determined in relation to the operating parameters of the vehicles drive system. Road emission, specific emission and fuel consumption values were also calculated.

The diffuse nature of road transport and the heterogeneity of heavy vehicles have hindered the implementation of emissions accounting systems. Even though there are emission factors in well-known databases, these factors have commonly been designed in industrialized countries, which might have geography, type of roads, and operating conditions different to other countries. This paper proposes a method for the energy consumption and emissions estimation based on vehicle operating conditions in regions with different topology, such as Colombia, Malaysia, and Spain, as case studies. Moreover, the environmental impacts of fuel production in each country are calculated. The diesel consumption on mountainous roads for a full loaded rigid truck in Colombia was 45 L/100 km, compared to averages between 22–26 L/100 km from other sources usually applied. In contrast, the diesel consumption for an articulated truck on a hilly road in Spain from both the proposed method and generic databases coincided in 31 L/100 km. The vehicle speed, load, and road gradient also generated large variations up to 145% in the air pollutants’ estimation. This study contributes to the need for more research about emission factors and tools that facilitate and reduce uncertainty in the environmental accounting in freight companies in different geographies.

Abstract During the past few years considerable interest has been shown in the use of pendulum methods for the study of resilience properties of rubber compounds. We feel therefore that an account of the development and use of the pendulum method in the Dunlop Rubber Co.'s laboratories will prove of general use. In this country the period from 1918 witnessed a rapid extension in road transport, carried at that time almost exclusively on solid tires. With this development the performance of heavy vehicles improved considerably and tires were operated under the increasingly severe conditions, both with respect to speed and load. It is well known, that if a solid tire is operated under sufficiently severe conditions it is no longer able to dissipate the heat developed within it, and its temperature rises until eventually an explosion or the familiar “blow-out” occurs. This phenomenon, of course, results from the fact that rubber is not perfectly elastic. When transmitting energy it does not release all the energy supplied to it. Some of the energy is always absorbed and appears in the rubber in the form of heat; the faster the energy is supplied, the greater is the increase in temperature.

Heavy vehicles used for road transport are essentially rigid trucks, rigid trucks with trailers, and articulated trucks. A collision of such a vehicle against a safety barrier has different outcomes, depending on the vehicle characteristics, even when the impact energy (Ie) is the same. The factors responsible for the different behavior of rigid and articulated trucks during collision are addressed. The study, carried out by computer simulation, was divided into three parts. The first part compared the overall behavior of the two types of vehicles during collisions to detect the most responsible factors. In the second phase, the single features that characterize each type of vehicle were tested. The third phase tried to define a relationship between the two types of vehicles. Results from Tests TB81 and TB71, established by the European Committee for Standardization 1317, were compared. The results show that a collision of an articulated truck is less severe than one of a rigid truck because of greater length, suspension stiffness, inertia, and configuration. However, the difference in behavior depends on kinetic Ie and side-friction coefficient (SFC). Four analytical expressions were found that relate Ies producing the same maximum transversal displacements or vehicle roll angle for the two types of vehicles. The study concerning the European tests on safety barriers shows that a hierarchy exists between them and it depends on the SFC.

This chapter assesses the application of our proposals to the era of digitalization, when negotiable instruments will take their electronic form. It outlines the various ‘electronification’ moves that have taken place within the traditional versions of negotiable instruments and considers the various international legislative frameworks that might be relevant to a digital version of negotiable instruments. Moreover, we contend that the suggested framework of choice-of-law rules should be attractive to the digital era of the instruments. The expected loss of the physical aspect of the instrument does not challenge the validity of our proposals and, in fact, enhances them. Indeed, ‘electronification’—that is, any elimination of physical processing and delivery—will enhance efficiency and speed. There is a possibility that it will also enhance security and reduce errors. Accordingly, assuming there is a business rationale for its continued use, there ought to be no doubt as to the desirability of bringing the negotiable instrument into the ambit of electronic banking.

A healthcare department in remove community of Indonesia aimed for reducing paperwork and improving the electronic system. As part of a pilot project, one aspect was replaced from manual to the electronic format. The proposed system was use of electronic form for claiming for fee reimbursement made by the physicians. The design of the system is intranet based and consisted of two separate portals. The first portal is for physicians and second portal is for billing clerk. The interface is user-friendly and packed with pre-defined codes set in several of its fields and sub-fields. The electronic form is also linked to a centralized database from which a physician can copy the existing patients record. For improving the system variance from individual needs, decision support algorithm is used. Whereas, for improving the system performance, machine learning algorithm is used. For data query, database query was designed. The relationship of columns in the database is displayed as a tabulated form to the user. In situation where a user selects a particular column, a filtered display mechanism displays those columns which satisfying the portion of the query already constructed. For obtaining data from the tabulated database, the SQL query is adapted. Rule-based knowledge inference model is utilized for reasoning about terminology and required domain knowledge. The inference used is algorithmic and helpful in performing all necessary tasks under the suitable billing circumstances. A survey is conducted with 35 physicians for judging their perception towards the system. Results of the survey indicate that most participants find the system suitable and better than the paper-based system in terms of several dimensions such as user friendliness, time saving, reducing errors, and accuracy.
