alzheimer's disease (ad), a common and debilitating neurodegenerative disorder, affect more than 65 million individuals throughout the world. this disability plays a crucial role in daily activities such as driving. several studies have investigated the relationship between cognitive functions and driving safety. the current study revises the literature on the relation between road safety ...

To date there has been limited published work in the construction management and engineering literature that has provided empirical evidence to demonstrate that IT can improve organizational performance. Without an explicit understanding about how IT can be effectively used to improve organizational performance, its justification will remain to be weak for managers. To ensure the continuous inc...

with rapid economic development and industrialization, the construction industry continues to rank among the most hazardous industries in the world. therefore, construction safety is always a significant concern for both practitioners and researchers. the objective of this study was to create a structural modeling of components that influence the safety performance in construction projects.we f...

background: total system design (tsd) factors are design factors, which have impact on overall performance of the power plants in context of total human engineering or macroergonomic. the evaluation of the impact of tsd factors was the main goal of this study. the main objective was human factors engineering on human performance in a power plant. methods : the systems being studied are the cont...

Efforts have intensified to apply a more evidence-based approach to traffic safety. One such effort is the Highway Safety Manual, which provides typical safety performance functions (SPFs) for common road types. SPFs model the mathematical relationship between frequency of crashes and the most significant causal factors. Unfortunately, the manual provides no SPFs for bicyclists, despite disprop...

The Highway Safety Manual [HSM, 2010] recommends safety evaluations be performed before implementing any roadway treatment to predict the expected safety consequences. Safety consequences can be measured using crash prediction models, Crash Modification Factor (CMFs), or both. This paper develops a CMF to show the expected impact of red-light cameras (RLCs) on safety at signalized intersections...
