Moreover, the simulation of producing process is represented. Simulating results indicate that the curvature radius could be reduced by increasing friction coefficient, friction coefficient ratio, reduction or roller radius, while it could be augmented by increasing the thickness of plate. Furthermore, increasing the thickness of plate would cause more effects on front end curvature, whereas reduction would do less. The result provides theoretic basis for eliminating the front end curvature in plate and sheet rolling process, and it is important to protect controlling equipment and reduce scrap as well.展开更多

To examine the risk factors for the occurrence of this crash type, this study involved the analysis of nine years of intersection crash records in the state of Wyoming. With that, the contributing factors related to crash, driver, environmental, and roadway characteristics, including pavement surface friction, were investigated. A binomial logistic regression modeling approach was applied to achieve the study’s objective. The results showed that three factors related to crash and driver’s attributes (commercial vehicle involvement, speeding, and driver’s age) and four factors related to environmental and roadway characteristics (lighting, weather conditions, area type, whether urban or rural and pavement friction) are associated with the risk of rear-end crash occurrence at signalized intersections. This study provides insights into the mitigation measures to implement concerning rear-end crashes at signalized intersections.展开更多
