Common Cause

Increased vehicle speed will affect the increase in reaction time and distance to stop and the increased possibility of errors that can be done by the driver. The most common cause of accidents faced by many countries is a high speed and exceeding permitted limits because they contribute to the problem of the number and number of fatalities of accident victims. Setting the maximum speed limit can reduce the risk of accidents. The higher the speed, the greater the stop distance needed, and the risk of accidents increases. Kecepatan kendaraan yang meningkat akan berpengaruh terhadap peningkatan waktu reaksi dan jarak untuk berhenti serta meningkatnya kemungkinan kesalahan yang dapat dilakukan oleh pengemudi. Faktor penyebab kecelakaan yang paling sering dihadapi oleh banyak negara adalah kecepatan tinggi dan melebihi batas yang diijinkan karena ikut berkontribusi pada permasalahan jumlah dan kefatalan korban kecelakaan. Mengatur batas kecepatan maksimum dapat menurunkan resiko kecelakaan. Semakin tinggi kecepatan, maka semakin besar jarak berhenti yang dibutuhkan dan resiko kecelakaan semakin meningkat.

High-speed capsular vehicles are firstly suggested as an idea by Elon Musk of Tesla Company. Unlike conventional high-speed trains, capsular vehicles are individual vessels carrying passengers and freight with the expected maximum speed of near 1200 [km/h] in a near-vacuum tunnel. More individual vehicle speed, dispatch, and position control in the operational aspect are expected over connected trains. This numerical study and investigation evaluate and analyze inter-distance control and their characteristics for high-speed capsular vehicles and their operational aspects. Among many aspects of operation, the inter-distance of multiple vehicles is critical toward passenger/freight flow rate and infrastructural investment. In this paper, the system’s equation, equation of the motion, and various characteristics of the system are introduced, and in particular control design parameters for inter-distance control and actuation are numerically shown. As a conclusion, (1) Inter-distance between vehicles is a function of error rate and second car start time, the magnitude range is determined by second car start time, (2) Inter-distance fluctuation rate is a function of error rate and second car start time, however; it can be minimized by choosing the correct second car start time, and (3) If the second car start time is chosen an integer number of push-down cycle time at specific velocity error rate, the inter-distance fluctuation can be zero.

To solve the problems in the current deterministic method of a maximum speed limit for expressway, a method of dynamic speed limit on expressway under complex climate was presented which was based on pavement skid-resistant performance. Firstly, the variation of pavement skid-resistant performance under complex climate conditions was analysed based on research results and certain experimental statistic data. By analysing the influence rule of AC-16 and SMA-16 pavement texture, pavement temperature, water film thickness, ice thickness, vehicle speed to pavement Skid-Resistant Performance, pavement actual friction coefficient calculation model and reference standard were established under different pavement condition Then, by analysing the geometry line indexes, pavement conditions and vehicle dynamics, the critical sideslip speed and critical longitudinal-driving safety speed was formulated; therefore, with critical speed as a constraint of safety driving and interval classification of complex climatic conditions, the dynamic speed calculate method and safety speed control standard were proposed under various pavements conditions, visibilities and traffic environments. This method for overcoming the weakness of a maximum speed limit of expressway operation and improving traffic safety is helpful.

Driving Experience

Driving at high speed has negative consequences, namely, the high number of accidents. Several factors have been considered as causes of the increasing severity of victims of traffic accidents, such as a human, vehicle, and environmental factors. The risky driving behavior factor is a factor that needs to be considered in traffic safety studies. This study aims to determine the probability model of speeding behavior based on several driver characteristics and their relationship to accident involvement. This study used a binary logistic regression method to determine the probability of driving behavior exceeding the speed limit and accident involvement. The results showed that the younger a person is, the higher the probability of breaking the maximum speed limit. Furthermore, driving experience also shows a similar trend, where the longer the driving experience of someone, the less likely it is to be involved in an accident. Directions for further research are also presented. Berkendara dengan kecepatan tinggi mempunyai konsekuensi negatif, yaitu tingginya angka kecelakaan. Beberapa faktor telah dipertimbangkan sebagai penyebab dari peningkatan tingkat keparahan korban kecelakaan lalulintas. Faktor tersebut seperti faktor manusia, kendaraan, dan lingkungan. Faktor perilaku berkendara yang berbahaya, menjadi faktor yang perlu diperhatikan dalam kajian keselamatan lalulintas. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui model probabilitas pada perilaku speeding berdasarkan beberapa karakteristik pengendara, serta hubungannya dengan keterlibatan kecelakaan. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode regresi logistik biner untuk mengetahui probabilitas perilaku berkendara melebihi batas kecepatan dan keterlibatan kecelakaan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa semakin muda usia seseorang, maka semakin tinggi probabilitasnya dalam melanggar batas kecepatan maksimum. Lebih lanjut diperlihatkan bahwa pengalaman mengemudi juga menunjukkan tren yang serupa. Pengalaman mengemudi seseroang, yang lebih lama akan memperkecil kemungkinan dalam keterlibatan kecelakaan. Arahan untuk penelitian selanjutnya juga ditampilkan.

Status : PreprintSchool Safety Zone is a location or region on particular roads that are time-based speed zone to set the speed ofthe vehicle in the school environment. The maximum speed limit permits entering a School Safety Zone, especially in Pekanbaru City is 25 km / h and an outline of the speed limit permit vehicles that pass through the School Safety Zone in Indonesia is generally 20-30 km / h. However, the vehicles speeds that pass School Safety Zone are higher than permit speeds.To ensure the level of vehicle offense across the territory of the School Safety Zone so it is necessary a primary data which is taken randomly based on field survey for 3 days at schools that has that facility SDN 3 Jalan Kesehatan Pekanbaru City, SDN 68 Jalan Balam Ujung Kota Pekanbaru and SDN 143 Jalan Taskurun Kota Pekanbaru. Furthermore, the data were taken in good condition that is at 6:30 to 7:30 am and at 12:00 to 13:00 pm. In addition, the data obtained ismileage and travel time of the vehicle. Both of these data can generate good speed value that passes through the area of School Safety Zone. Based on the research findings, the vehicle speed passing through the area of School Safety Zone is incompatible with speed permit at 35 km / h. This indicates that the vehicle passes School Safety Zone not following the rules of the maximum limit area and can be potentially harmful to elementary school students.

Terrain Roughness

This paper addresses the problem of determining the maximum allowable speed (V) of a vehicle traversing unknown off-road terrains. The calculated maximum speed achieves the fastest navigation without exceeding an allowable range of transmitted force (Fall) to the vehicle's frame. The proposed system enables the vehicle to transit between different terrains safely. The system's input are: (i) a 3D range image of the terrain and (ii) the vehicle's dimensions and characteristics (e.g., suspension parameters). First the terrain roughness is assessed; then the corresponding maximum allowable speed is calculated. In this paper a novel Roughness Index (RI) is used to represent the terrain roughness. This index is calculated based on the standard deviation of the terrain points' elevations (3D range image). A closed form expression of the maximum allowable vehicle speed is developed (as function of the vehicle's properties, Fall, RI, and probability of not exceeding Fall). The proposed system can be used as a driver assistant system to enhance the vehicle performance, increase its life time, and reduce the maintenance cost. In addition, it is a key module in Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGVs) navigation systems; as it provides the navigation system with necessary information for path and speed planning.

The Cost

Research has shown that the highest rates of road accident are caused by high-speed vehicles. In an attempt to mitigate this problem, the authority has specified speed limits on the roads in order to regulate the speed of vehicles. To successfully enforce the speed limit law, a mechanism for monitoring a vehicle speed is required. There are numerous measures in use for detecting and monitoring the speed limit violators. Some of these methods include the use of speed cameras, radar, loop detector, police officers, and many more. These traditional methods are not effective due to their setbacks, which ranges from the cost of acquiring equipment, increase labor and manpower, and inadequacy of monitoring. As such, a simple, cost effective and easily deployed speed detection technique that can overcome the shortcomings of the traditional methods imperative. In this paper, we proposed an automatic speed violation detection. The proposed system is cost effective and user centered.

The Cost

One of the most restrictive conditions in ground transportation at high speeds is aerodynamic drag. This is even more problematic when running inside a tunnel, where compressible phenomena such as wave propagation, shock waves, or flow blocking can happen. Considering Evacuated-Tube Trains (ETTs) or hyperloops, these effects appear during the whole route, as they always operate in a closed environment. Then, one of the concerns is the size of the tunnel, as it directly affects the cost of the infrastructure. When the tube size decreases with a constant section of the vehicle, the power consumption increases exponentially, as the Kantrowitz limit is surpassed. This can be mitigated when adding a compressor to the vehicle as a means of propulsion. The turbomachinery increases the pressure of part of the air faced by the vehicle, thus delaying the critical conditions on surrounding flow. With tunnels using a blockage ratio of 0.5 or higher, the reported reduction in the power consumption is 70%. Additionally, the induced pressure in front of the capsule became a negligible effect. The analysis of the flow shows that the compressor can remove the shock waves downstream and thus allows operation above the Kantrowitz limit. Actually, for a vehicle speed of 700 km/h, the case without a compressor reaches critical conditions at a blockage ratio of 0.18, which is a tunnel even smaller than those used for High-Speed Rails (0.23). When aerodynamic propulsion is used, sonic Mach numbers are reached above a blockage ratio of 0.5. A direct effect is that cases with turbomachinery can operate in tunnels with blockage ratios even 2.8 times higher than the non-compressor cases, enabling a considerable reduction in the size of the tunnel without affecting the performance. This work, after conducting bibliographic research, presents the geometry, mesh, and setup. Later, results for the flow without compressor are shown. Finally, it is discussed how the addition of the compressor improves the flow behavior and power consumption of the case.

Behavioural responses can help species persist in habitats modified by humans. Roads and traffic greatly affect animals' mortality not only through habitat structure modifications but also through direct mortality owing to collisions. Although species are known to differ in their sensitivity to the risk of collision, whether individuals can change their behaviour in response to this is still unknown. Here, we tested whether common European birds changed their flight initiation distances (FIDs) in response to vehicles according to road speed limit (a known factor affecting killing rates on roads) and vehicle speed. We found that FID increased with speed limit, although vehicle speed had no effect. This suggests that birds adjust their flight distance to speed limit, which may reduce collision risks and decrease mortality maximizing the time allocated to foraging behaviours. Mobility and territory size are likely to affect an individuals' ability to respond adaptively to local speed limits.

Large eddy simulation (LES) was made to solve the flow around two simplified CRH2 high speed trains passing by each other at the same speed base on the finite volume method and dynamic layering mesh method and three dimensional incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. Wind tunnel experimental method of resting train with relative flowing air and dynamic mesh method of moving train were compared. The results of numerical simulation show that the flow field structure around train is completely different between wind tunnel experiment and factual running. Two opposite moving couple of point source and point sink constitute the whole flow field structure during the high speed trains passing by each other. All of streamlines originate from point source (nose) and finish with the closer point sink (tail). The flow field structure around train is similar with different vehicle speed.

The aim of this study was (I) to establish absolute specific velocity thresholds during basketball games using local positional system (LPS) and (II) to compare the speed profiles between various levels of competitions. The variables recorded were total distance (TD); meters per minute (m·min); real time (min); maximum speed (Km h−1), distance (m), percentage distance, and percentage duration invested in four speed zones (standing–walking; jogging; running; and high-speed running). Mean and standard deviation (±SD) were calculated, and a separate one-way analysis of variance was undertaken to identify differences between competitions. TD (3188.84 ± 808.37 m) is covered by standing–walking (43.51%), jogging (36.58%), running (14.68%), and sprinting (5.23%) activities. Overall, 75.22% of the time is invested standing–walking, jogging (18.43%), running (4.77%), and sprinting (1.89%). M·min (large effect size), % duration zone 2 (moderate effect size); distance zone 4 (large effect size), and % distance zone 4 (very large effect size) are significantly higher during junior than senior. However, % distance zone 1 (large effect size) and % duration zone 1 (large effect size) were largely higher during senior competition. The findings of this study reveal that most of the distance and play time is spent during walking and standing activities. In addition, the proportion of time spent at elevated intensities is higher during junior than in senior competition.
