An investigation into road safety education in KwaZulu-NatalSunker, Neeraj January 2005 (has links)
Thesis (M.Tech.:Civil Engineering)-Dept of Civil Engineering and Survey, Durban Institute of Technology, 2005
xiv, 134 leaves, Annexures A-C / Road fatalities claim more than one million lives annually worldwide. The emotional, social and economic impact of road traffic fatalities demands urgent attention globally. This epidemic of road traffic fatalities is plaguing everyone, especially the poorer nations. Some countries like Australia and Sweden have been more successful than others in combating this epidemic.
South Africa is currently seeking strategies to combat this epidemic because South Africa’s road traffic fatalities have been increasing annually, with a substantial percentage of teenagers and young adults between the ages of 16 and 29 contributing to these statistics. This age group will become or already have become part of the economically active population and concern is mounting as to why this particular age group is vulnerable.
This thesis provides an overview of the road safety problem globally, nationally, provincially and locally and also looks at the historical factors that have contributed to this problem. The Victorian model, which has been classified as the ‘world’s best practice’, has been reviewed.
A pilot survey was conducted at the Mangosuthu Technikon and the focal survey was conducted at the tertiary institutions in the Durban area. Students from this sector were selected as they fall in the most vulnerable age group and data was collected from them on various aspects of road safety.
On analysing the data, various problems were identified, in particular, lack of resources and limited education pertaining to road safety. A range of possible solutions is recommended and the focus areas are the 3E’s namely: education, enforcement and engineering. However, the focal recommendation is on education and looks at the possibility of introducing learner’s licence testing to the grade 12 syllabi.

Design exception in-service monitoring program developmentStahley, Laura Margot 13 January 2014 (has links)
When project sites consist of substandard design elements according to standards set by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), design exceptions are implemented. The goal of this thesis is to analyze a sample set of 18 design exceptions taken from a total of 467 design exceptions approved in Georgia from 1995 – 2012. Crash data were obtained at the locations of each of these design exceptions three years before the let date and three years after the construction end date.
To compensate for causal factors other than the design exception on the roadway, similar information from a range of control sites were also obtained. These control sites consisted of projects without design exceptions that occurred within the same time constraints as the design exception projects, were of the same work type, and were either located on the same route or within the same district. The potential safety impacts of the design exceptions were evaluated by comparing the before and after crash rates of projects before and after crash rates at these control sites
Based on these data, no statistically significant relationship between the existence of a design exception and crash rates was identified. The sample set in this study was too small and the number of crashes found at both projects with design exceptions and control sites without design exceptions was too low to perform a significant Empirical Bayesian (EB) analysis. When additional data is available, an EB before and after analysis is recommended to compensate for any potential regression to the mean bias.

Calibration of the HCM 2010 single-lane roundabout capacity equations for Georgia conditions (Phase 2)Schmitt, Laura E. 13 January 2014 (has links)
The operational performance of an existing or proposed roundabout can be assessed through capacity models. In order to provide improved capacity predictions for existing and proposed Georgia roundabouts, the 2010 HCM roundabout capacity equations need to be locally calibrated based on Georgia drivers. The purpose of this study is to collect field data necessary to calculate follow-up and critical headways at Georgia roundabouts in order to calibrate the 2010 HCM capacity equations to yield improved capacity predictions. The research team filmed 28 approaches at thirteen Georgia roundabouts for a total of 56.5 hours. The video was processed manually using an in-house computer program. Based on analyst keystrokes during the video review the program would extract timestamps of events that are necessary for calculating follow-up and critical headway. The follow-up and critical headway values were calculated for two different data sets: 1) including exiting vehicles and 2) excluding exiting vehicles. The critical and follow-up headway for an analysis including exiting vehicles is 4.192 seconds and 2.788 seconds respectively. The critical and follow-up headway for an analysis excluding exiting vehicles is 4.747 seconds and 3.265 seconds respectively. This study found that including the exiting vehicles impacts the capacity. The capacity increases or decreases based on the percentage of conflicting vehicles that are exiting vehicles. In addition, this study’s calibrated model excluding exiting vehicles predicts higher capacity than the 2010 HCM model that GDOT recommends which also excludes exiting vehicles.

The growth of the Internet has caused the development of new protocols that enable IP networks to be engineered efficiently. One such protocol, Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) enables IP datagrams in backbone networks to be forwarded based on the label switching forwarding paradigm. In MPLS networks, rerouting of Label Switching Paths (LSPs) can be needed in order to attain a better resource utilization in the network. In this case, a sequence of LSPs has to be found for their one by one reconfiguration without service interruption, involving the constraint that the link capacities should not be violated at any time during the rerouting process. This reroute sequence planning problem for LSPs is NP-complete. In previous works, the conditions of existence of any feasible reroute sequence are examined and algorithms are described for solving the problem, but it was shown that the problem is computationally hard in real-world situations because of the large amount of routers and LSPs in the network. In this work, we deal with the problem of reroute sequence planning problem of LSPs and present alternative solutions for the case when there is no feasible solution. We introduce a tool for the post-processing phase when a capacity violation is occurred during the sequence planning. We present an algorithm trying to reconfigure LSPs while allowing some interruption or degradation of traffic during the rerouting process.
