NEW PAPER PUBLISHED BY CO-DIRECTOR OFFER GREMBEK

Offer Grembek has co-authored a newly published paper, "Developing a safety heatmap of uncontrolled intersections using both conflict probability and Graphic of heatmap at intersectionseverity" in the Accident Analysis & Prevention journal. 

This paper presents a method to assess the safety of uncontrolled intersections considering two major properties of traffic conflicts—conflict probability and severity. This method assesses both the safety level of the entire intersection in addition to the distribution of safety within it. 

Highlights from the paper:

  • Accident-data-free safety assessment method of uncontrolled intersection.
  • Safety level index system to compare different uncontrolled intersections and schemes.
  • Dangerous position management of intersection.
  • Safety heatmap reflecting safety problems.
