An innovative approach for real-time road safety analysis is presented in this work. Unlike
traditional real-time crash prediction models (RTCPMs), in which crash data are used in the …

Purpose Over the past 10 years, building on road infrastructure data, crash prediction
models (CPMs) have become fundamental scientific tools for road safety management …

Safety evaluation is a critical aspect through the future stages of automation development.
Since there is a lack of historical and generalizable safety data in high levels of Connected …

Although speed is considered to be one of the main crash contributory factors, research
findings are inconsistent. Independent of the robustness of their statistical approaches, crash …

Road crashes are events which depend on a variety of factors and which exhibit different
magnitudes of outputs when evaluated with respect to the effects on road users. Despite a …

A microsimulation approach is presented for assessing safety at unsignalized intersections
using critical traffic conflicts computed in simulation models as a surrogate safety measure …

In this paper we lay the groundwork for gauging the level of safety of any type of traffic flow
on a freeway, based on data from single loop detectors; the procedure can be implemented …

Knowledge of fundamental traffic flow characteristics—speed, volume and density—and
associated analytical techniques are essential requirements in planning, design, and …

Several studies have investigated the relationship between field-measured conflicts and the
conflicts obtained from micro-simulation models using the Surrogate Safety Assessment …

Safety and sustainability are the two main themes of this thesis. They are also the two main
pillars of a functional transportation system. Recent studies showed that the cost of road …
