Pavement rehabilitation could affect the accident severity index (ASI) since restoration measures means more safety for road users. No research or project has been carried out to identify hazard points to build a linear model based on crash severity index. One of the very popular accident severity index models used in all countries is based on linear models to rehabilitate pavements and this pa...

in this work, the time series modeling was used to predict the tazareh coal mine risks. for this purpose, initially, a monthly analysis of the risk constituents including frequency index and incidence severity index was performed. next, a monthly time series diagram related to each one of these indices was for a nine year period of time from 2005 to 2013. after extrusion of the trend, seasonali...

BACKGROUND The objective of this study is to identify high-risk groups for industrial accidents by setting up 2003 as the base year and conducting an in-depth analysis of the trends of major industrial accident indexes the index of industrial accident rate, the index of occupational injury rate, the index of occupational illness and disease rate per 10,000 people, and the index of occupational ...

conclusions the seatbelt wearing rate among the study participants was much lower than the 90% rate reported among iranian drivers in 2010. mandating seatbelt use, as in most countries, will be more effective if a combination of factors such as changes in vehicle design, road safety, and driver and passenger behavior are taken into account. background seatbelts are a relatively low-cost safety ...

backgrounds and aims: the tehran province was subject to the second highest incidence of fatalities due to traffic accidents in 1390. most studies in this field examine rural traffic accidents, but this study is based on the use of logit models and artificial neural networks to evaluate the factors that affect the severity of accidents within the city of tehran. materials and methods: among the...

the present study aimed to investigate the characteristics of occupational accidents and frequency and severity of work related accidents in the construction industry among iranian insured workers during the years 20072011.the iranian social security organization (isso) accident database containing 21,864 cases between the years 2007-2011 was applied in this study. in the next step, total accid...

background: there is a high prevalence of  occupational injuries due to accidents in construction industries which affect human health. therefore, the exploration and analysis of contributing factors of such accidents can lead to their prevention and the reduction of their consequences. this study was conducted with the aim to identify factors related to occupational injuries and the severity o...

Barriers to risk factor control may differ by race/ethnicity. The goal of this study was to identify barriers to stroke awareness and risk factor management unique to Hispanics as compared to non-Hispanic whites (NHWs). We performed a prospective study of stroke patients from an academic Stroke Center in Arizona and surveyed members of the general community. Questionnaires included: the Duke So...
