In China, around ninety percent of the traffic accidents at signalized intersections occur within the signal change intervals, especially during signal change from green to red. Hence, intergreen time (IGT), that is, yellow change interval plus red clearance interval, is of great significance to the safety at signalized intersections. The conventional calculation method of IGT ignores the randomness of drivers’ behaviors, which we believe is an important factor in calculation of IGT. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to investigate a new approach to calculate the IGT based on safety reliability theory. Firstly, a comprehensive literature review concerning the conventional calculation methods of IGT is conducted. Secondly, a theoretical calculation method of IGT based on safety reliability theory is put forward; different from the conventional methods, this model accounts for the uncertainty of driving behavior parameters. Thirdly, a Monte-Carlo simulation is employed to simulate the interactive process of perception-reaction time (PRT) and vehicular deceleration and solve the proposed model. Finally, according to the Monte-Carlo simulation results, the curve clusters describing the relationship between IGT, safety reliability (50%-90%), and intersection width (15-35m) are drawn. Results show that the IGT of a signalized intersection, obeying the normal distribution, is influenced by multiple factors and most sensitive to the PRT and vehicular deceleration. Our method thus successfully incorporates the probabilistic nature of driving behavior. Taking the safety reliability into consideration can provide a more reasonable method to calculate the IGT of signalized intersections.

In order to research the motion precision reliability of hydraulic support when the influence of the bar length error and gap error is considered, the motion trace mathematical model for the top beam of hydraulic support is established, with the calculation method of motion precision reliability and the effective length of bar based on continuous contact model. Taking some type of hydraulic support as an example, its motion precision reliability is calculated and analyzed. The Monte Carlo simulation is also used to verify the model, and the T-R curve of the gap error and the reliability is plotted. The results from simulation accord with those from the theoretical calculation, which verifies the model established and can provide some valuable reference for the related future research.

In China, around 90% of traffic crashes at signalized intersections take place within the signal change intervals, especially during signal change from green to red. Hence, yellow time, which is a part of inter-green time, is of great significance to the safety of signalized intersections. The conventional calculation method for duration of yellow light (DYL) ignores the stochastic characteristics of drivers, which we believe is an important factor in this calculation. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to investigate a new approach to calculate DYL based on safety reliability theory in which the randomness of human factors is taken into consideration. Firstly, a comprehensive literature review concerning the conventional calculation methods of DYL is conducted. Secondly, a theoretical calculation method of DYL based on safety reliability theory is put forward which, different from the conventional methods, accounts for the stochastic characteristics of drivers. Additionally, a driving simulation experiment is designed to obtain two driving behavior parameters of Chinese drivers: perception–reaction time (PRT) and safe acceptable acceleration (SAA). Thirdly, a Monte Carlo simulation is employed to simulate the interactive process of PRT and SAA, and solve the proposed model. Finally, according to the Monte Carlo simulation results, a look-up table describing the relationship between DYL, safety reliability (50–90%) and approaching speed (15–40 km/h) is made. Results show that this method successfully incorporates the probabilistic nature of driving behavior. Taking the safety reliability into consideration can provide a more reasonable method to calculate the DYL of signalized intersections.

Aiming at the problems of complex factors affecting the rate of deception probability of networked of radar nets, the large amount of calculation by Monte Carlo simulation and the inability to quantitatively analyze the influence of various factors on the deception probability of networked, a calculation method of deception probability of networked is proposed. First, according to the homology measurement method based on the Mahalanobis distance, the probability density model of the deception probability of networked is calculated. Its probability density model obeys the non-central chi-square distribution. Then, a hypothesis test model is established to calculate the deception probability of networked mathematical expression. The simulation results show that the error between the calculation method of the deception probability of networked and the calculation result of 1000 times Monte Carlo is less than 2%. The method in this article can analyze the quantitative effect of false target position, interference distance interval, radar position, true target position, and other factors on the deception probability of networked, instead of Monte Carlo simulation, to provide a trade-off between the true target recognition rate and the deception probability of networked theoretical basis.
