Visualization System for Traffic Accident Data

At present, the traffic problem is a problem that the government attaches great importance to. Many papers also put forward their own visualization models for traffic problems. This research focused on the Map-matching and Spatial-temporal Visualization of Expressway Traffic Accident Information and improves the original two-dimensional visual model of accident rate into a three-dimensional model. The goal is to represent more attributes in a visual model and make them easier to compare, so as to provide users with more intuitive visual information.

With mining depth and state-wide expansion in open pit mining, it is necessary to bulid a three-dimensional visual model of open pit mining boundary, which can be used in the analysis of pit slope stability, engineering decisions, geological analysis and production planning. In this paper, a three-dimensionla visual model reflecting the complex formation load and terrain conditions was built by collecting original open pit design and geological data. With this model, stability analysis of open pit can be obtained and theoretical basis for selection of design can be provided. In the specific prcess of modelling, the original information in the existing CAD mining topographic maps were be used fully and the mine topographic maps was imported into Surpac mining software. Surface digital terrain model can be obtained elevation assignmented by corrction processing of CAD linears and vector processing of measring point data. On this basis, by using MIDAS software and considering the requirements of the scope of computational space, a three-dimensional model can be obtained through Boolean cut operations. With this model, the real surface shape of open pit mining boundary can be reflected.

This study aims to explore and uncover power play in Dharna 2014 speeches of Imran Khan. The study has followed the theoretical perspective of power (Fairclough, 2003) in its two-dimensions i.e. power within and behind discourse. This research is significant in terms of enabling common public of Pakistan to understand their leader in terms of the concept of power by comprehending the meaning that language conveys. The research method applies thematic analysis and utilizes Fairclough’s three-dimensional model (1989) as data analyzing tool. The speeches were analyzed by considering Textual, Discursive and Societal levels of discourse. The key findings in case of power within discourse include that the speaker showed the use of pronoun ‘I’ in order to show his power and by using the pronoun ‘we’ he gained the support of the audience in order to win their hearts and reflect this as a power on the rulers. The speakers explained in detail the unjust rule of the government by using different linguistic tools like modal verbs, vocabulary, transitivity, inter-discourse etc. Moreover, in case of power behind discourse, the key findings include the power of west and Islam in the speaker’s speeches.

Purpose of the study: The subject study aims at investigating the construction of diverse ideologies embedded within English textbooks used in Pakistani settings at the elementary level. The entire study is based on a comparative analysis of English textbooks of Punjab Textbook Board (PTB) and Oxford University Press (OUP) and employs a critical discourse lens for a comprehensive analysis. Methodology: Based on purposeful sampling, the study hinges on insights of Critical Discourse Studies. Out of various models available in CDA, the study employs Fairclough's Three-Dimensional Model for an extensive qualitative analysis of the selected texts as it is more suited to the dynamics of the subject study. Both micro and macro dimensions of the model were employed for an enriched analysis. Main Findings: Both textbooks aimed at infusing different cultural and ideological constructions within students. Exercise of power supplemented by a specific religious perspective was also witnessed in constructions of diverse ideologies. The current study hinted at a deliberate effort on the part of the government to preserve religious, national, political, and societal ideologies through PTB English textbooks. On the other hand, OUP English textbooks created consent among the students to accept a specific culture and its embedded ideologies. Applications of this study: The study can be a useful resource for researchers investigating multiple ideologies in textbooks. Critical discourse examination of both textbooks entails ample advice for textbook developers, authors, and syllabus designers to consider the ideological impacts of the textbooks while devising an all-encompassing and comprehensive curriculum to avoid any conflict at later stages. Novelty/Originality of this study: Diverse dimensions of textbook analysis have already been conducted, but examination of textbooks through a critical discourse lens is indeed a novel dimension that will not only facilitate the reader but also open up new avenues of research for textbook developers and curriculum designers. Examination of diverse ideological construction is indeed an interesting inquiry.

Aplikasi rancang bangun daerah rawan kecelakaan Berbasis mobile, dibangun dengan framework Codeigniter dan Framework 7, MySql sebagai basis data dan Mapbox Api sebagai layanan peta digital. Hasil akhir dari penelitian ini adalah terciptanya aplikasi SIG berbasis mobile yang menyajikan informasi titik lokasi rawan kecelakaan dan tingkat kerawanannya serta notifikasi kepada pengguna jika berada di radius titik rawan yang dapat diakses oleh masyarakat. AbstractTraffic accidents are a problem that requires serious treatment considering the amount of loss caused. One effort to improve transportation safety is to know the location of accident-prone locations. The method used to identify accident prone locations is the accident rate and frequency of accident methods. The purpose of the study is to identify accident prone locations by using the Accidental Equivalent Limit Limits and Z-Score methods. Traffic accident data analyzed were sourced from Jombang Satlantas from 2018 and data were sourced from electronic media, dummy variables from 2016 - 2019. Application of building design for accident-prone areas Based on mobile, built with Codeigniter frame and Framework 7, MySql as database and the Fire Mapbox as a digital map service. The final result of this study is the creation of a mobile-based GIS application that presents information on the location of accident-prone locations and their vulnerability levels as well as notifications to users if they are in a vulnerable point radius that can be accessed by the public.Keywords: Equivalent accident number (EEK); Black Spot; Framework7; SIG; Z-Score

Since air pollution and energy safety have become two worldwide concerns, New Energy Vehicles (NEVs) are one of the solutions to solve these problems. China has been taking action toward the NEV industry and has been successful. This paper aims to explore the evolution of the Chinese NEV industry. By using a three-dimensional model of technology, market and policy, we collected the national level policies from three NEV developmental stages based on the market sales. We found three reasons for its rising up in China: first, the NEV technical road has been directed by both the government and the market; second, the market has periodicity, so the prospective policies have been set ahead; and third, the government has transformed its role on time. Based on the resource endowment the industry has now, we can draw some inferences on its further development in the longitudinal direction.

The Ministry of Transport (MOT) in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia had collected a massive amount of friction measurements using a Mu-meter covering most of the major highway network in the kingdom. Traffic accident data of 89 high accident rate locations from four main different highway classes were extracted from the MOT accident records. Pavement skid resistance for the selected locations was determined from the pavement skid resistance records. The objective of this paper is to utilize these data to investigate the effects of pavement skid resistance on traffic accidents. The analysis included establishing relationships between skid resistance and accident number, accident significance and accident density. It was determined that a decreasing skid resistance leads to an increase in traffic accidents. Acritical value of skid resistance was also established based on number, significance and density of accidents.
