The bacterial colicin-immunity proteins Im7 and Im9 fold by different mechanisms. Experimentally, at pH 7.0 and 10°C, Im7 folds in a three-state manner via an intermediate but Im9 folding is two-state-like. Accordingly, Im7 exhibits a chevron rollover, whereas the chevron arm for Im9 folding is linear. Here we address the biophysical basis of their different behaviors by using native-centric mo...

Vibroseis trucks are in danger of rollover during the steering process, which severely threatens safety drivers and equipment. Therefore, it is important to examine approaches increase anti-rollover ability vibroseis trucks. According structural characteristics working field truck, an analysis influence different factors on its stability was carried out. Then, a warning index system were establ...

This paper proposes a methodology that allows the combination of the Stability Factor and handling characteristic to predict the probability of rollover per single vehicle crash. Paper No.202-O Simulation of Occupant Kinematics in Vehicle Rollover Dummy Model versus Human Model Norbert Praxl, Markus Schönpflug, Jiri Adamec Institute for Legal Medicine Munich, Germany Abstract Currently, 25% of ...

Vehicle driving safety is an important performance indicator for vehicles, and there still much room development in the active control of electric vehicles. Vehicles are susceptible to rollover when making sharp turns or overtaking at high speed. In order improve anti-rollover stability vehicles (EV), this study proposes a real-time motor strategy, mainly according acquisition vehicle attitude ...

In addition to clean transportation and energy savings, electric vehicles can inherently offer better performance in the field of active safety and dynamic stability control, thanks to the superior fast and accurate control characteristics of electric motors. With the novel wheel status parameter TA for electric vehicles proposed by the authors in an earlier publication, a new TA index (TAI)-ba...

Recent US field data was used to evaluate the effectiveness of Electronic Stability Control (ESC) systems in reducing fatal crashes. Light vehicles with and without ESC systems were compared through comprehensive statistical analysis, including logistic regression and contingency analyses, to address ESC effectiveness in singleand multiple-vehicle, rollover and nonrollover crashes. Analyses con...

Transport Canada’s Dangerous Goods Directorate (TDG) data base of crashes involving a vehicle carrying dangerous goods shows 810 rollovers in 1,874 reported crashes from 1990 to 1998, and 83% of these involved highway tank trucks. TDG is therefore considering approaches to improve the rollover stability of tank trucks used for highway transportation of dangerous goods. TDG asked the Centre for ...

While the horizontal curves have a duty to protect all types of road vehicles against sliding as well rollover, fact that different vehicle lose their stability for competing criteria makes this task difficult and vital. In relation rollover undergoing centripetal acceleration, technical note discusses number unclear interpretations some statements seen in reference books how better understandi...

An analysis of Victorian truck rollover crashes using data from the VicRoads Road Crash Information System database and National Transport Insurance (NTI) was undertaken for 2003 to 2007. Recommendations for reducing the frequency and severity of truck rollover crashes were made based on the analyses and supported by relevant literature. The Victorian crash data indicated that of all truck cras...
