obviously, improving the road safety and the efficient allocation of limited resources to the provinces according to their ranking should be done. this paper presents a hybrid method of multivariate statistical analysis-decision making to evaluate iran road traffic safety. in order to solve the problems of road traffic safety, a macroscopic evaluation and traffic safety level classification in ...

Responding to Ruth McDonald’s editorial on the rise of leadership and leadership development programmes in healthcare, this paper offers three arguments. Firstly, care is needed in evaluating impact of leadership development, since achievement of organisational goals is not necessarily an appropriate measure of good leadership. Secondly, the proliferation of styles of leadership might be unders...

conclusions based on of this study, management has an important role in creating a positive safety climate. individual characteristics can influence thee safety climate. management commitment to safety is an important factor in the success of safety programs. results final scoring was done on a scale of one through ten. the highest scores were achieved in personal values (mean score, 8.7 ± 1.36...

arch dams are generally built in cantilvever monoliths. vertical contraction joints between monoliths control the stresses due to concrete shrinkage and temperature variations. past studies in earthquake safety evaluation of the system often show the tensile fracture and local nonlinear deformation of joints. in this paper, some nonlinear joint element constitutive models are presented to exami...
