This research focuses primarily on the analysis of exit ramp performance related to safety and operations. The safety analysis focuses on the impacts of different exit ramp types for freeway diverge areas and different factors contributing to the crashes that occur on the exit ramp sections. The operational analysis is based mainly on simulations by TSIS-CORSIM. Different ramp effects and guidance for selecting optimal exit ramp type are concluded. Issues related to ramp sections and crossroad sections are also demonstrated. Minimum ramp length and minimum distance between ramp terminal and downstream or upstream intersections are calculated. The operational analysis was conducted to determine different ramp effects and to provide guidance for selecting optimal exit ramp type. Comparisons of the operational performance of different types of exit ramps are made to present a method for choosing the optimal one. Some methods of evaluation (MOEs) are used to approach this objective, such as number of lane changes, average speed, delay time, etc. Data collection at 24 sites in Florida was conducted, and traffic simulations by TSIS-CORSIM were applied for analysis. Mathematical models were built to evaluate different impacts of these ramps based on simulations. All impact analysis is concluded to summarize a model for optimal exit ramp selection. In addition to ramp type evaluation and selection, issues related to ramp section and crossroad section are demonstrated. Minimum ramp length and minimum distance between ramp terminal and downstream or upstream intersections are calculated.

This thesis analyzes the human as an element of accident system in the sphere of motor-vehicle traffic. Then interprets the risks, damages and injuries in this sphere which are caused by the driver. On this basis, the measures to reduce the number of injuries in the Czech Republic are drawn up. In this thesis is taken account of existing measures that were proceeded in this area. It focuses particularly on the subject "driver" and its role in traffic accidents.

Vilniaus Verkių Kalvarijų Kryžiaus kelio pamaldume atskleista istorija, 36 apeiginiai papročiai buvę anksčiau ir išlikę šiandien. Pateikta samprata apie tradicinę ir lokalinę piligrimystę Katalikų Bažnyčios mokyme.Atlikus apklausą atrastas naujas paprotys-Dievo Gailestingumo kultas. / One of Lithuania Catholic church practices of devoutness- calvarias. Calvarias Roads of The Cross are the one of objects of European Catholic religijon history, ethnology and ethnomusicology scien ces. The work is new and original not only because of it‘s theme which was researched for the first time. Verkiai Calvaries have been established in 17th century. The Calvaries were completed in 1669 by the supervision of Dominican monks. They have been constructed exactly following the plan of Jerusalem, with the distances, water bodies and elevations being very close to the original. New chapels were constructed in the 18th century in Baroque style. Verkiai Way of the Cross consists of 22 chapels, 7 wooden and brick gates, and two church ensembles. Almost all stations were completely destroyed in 1962 under the Soviet rule. After regaining the independence the reconstruction was started. Last chapels were rebuilt in 2004. Today the entire complex is reconstructed and is proclaimed an architectural monument of national significance. Vilnius Calvary still today attracts multitudes of pilgrims from all over Lithuania on Pentecost. In 1990, after Lithuania regained her state independence, the restoring of the dynamited by the Soviet authorities Stations of Vilnius Calvary started. The tradition of indulgenced feast of Pentecost was renewed. In 2002, the Cardinal Audrys Juozas Bačkis consecrated all the rebuilt Stations of the Cross.
