A framework for a decision-support system for adjudicating construction industry occupational accidents is developed using case-based reasoning (CBR) with a nearest-neighbor retrieval (NNR) search mechanism. One hundred thirty-three guilty verdicts of trial court judgments resulting from fatal construction occupational accidents (COAs) with injuries/deaths are collected, and 26 attributes, incl...

In this study, risk analysis is investigated by using 5X5 L Type Matrix Method in laboratories determined within the scope of occupational health and safety. analysis, 50 risks are identified, which 30 (60 %) have a high level, 18 (36 medium 2 (4 low level. Occupational safety rules applied to control these laboratory research minimize their effects. context, things be done studies listed as fo...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Traffic noise <60 dB(A) has been associated with an increased risk of stroke. We investigated this relationship for 80 to 86 dB(A) occupational noise. METHODS We followed 116,568 industrial and 47,679 financial workers by linkage to Danish registries 2001 through 2007.

Abstract This paper proposes a system concept to prevent work accidents caused by vehicles transporting goods within particular space. Furthermore, the uses image processing methods avoid these accidents. is meant allow calculate motion vectors for all objects in vehicle's path, so such design can predict possible collisions. In addition this, additional person detection has higher priority, en...
