The analysis of driving erroneous actions in the driver vehicle system has been performed to show that the reliability during perception with variety widely could result in the incidents and/or accidents in traffic system.展开更多

For a specific site, it is difficult to collect sufficient data for analyzing the fire risk. In this paper, we suggest an information diffusion technique to analyze fire risk with a small sample. The information distribution method is applied to change crisp observations into fuzzy sets, and then to effectively construct a fuzzy relationship between fire and surroundings. With the data of Shanghai in winter, we show how to use the technique to analyze the fire risk.展开更多

For this purpose, the traffic accident statistics for years 2003 to 2012 are used to examine the trends of different types of accidents and the causes of these accidents. Also, the paper determines the most common types of accidents over the study period and identifies some of the causes for these accidents. Furthermore, the paper shows the impact of the new traffic law amendments, which were issued in 2008, on the accident rates and trends. The results showed that the implementation of the traffic law amendments did not have major impact in year 2008. However, there was a significant effect of these amendments in the following years. Also, lack of awareness of traffic laws and regulations in Dubai has been proven to be one of the major causes of accidents. Finally, the paper provides some recommendations to reduce the traffic accident rates, in order to achieve the Dubai Police Department 2020 strategic goal to have zero fatalities.展开更多

The analysis indicates the emphasis reason that result in the accidents in coal mines are artificial cause explosion of mash gas and coal dust, water flood, fire hazard. The accidents mostly happened on stope which is more often than other places, following by the driving work face. This not only supplies the managers with basic reference about safe administration, but also suggests the countermeasures in reducing accidents： improve the disposition of person, perfect all kinds of rules and regulations, severely investigate, analyze and deal with the accidents.展开更多

The Ancient Greek Philosophers never showed the two gods together. Nevertheless, in the main myths related to the netherworld such as those of Orpheus or Persephone, the two gods are in a continuous fight which has determined the human condition until nowadays. The author wishes in this paper to examine how the Orpheus＇ myth related to the duality Eros and Thanatos is treated in Theo Angelopoulos＇ world and especially how it appears in Ulysses＇ Gaze （1995） and Trilogy： The Weeping Meadow （2004） and Dust of Time （2008）. In this last Angelopoulos＇ Trilogy, we will search the unfolds of the love story of two young people started in Odessa in 1918 and finished by the death of the woman at the end of the century, under the lens of the duality Eros and Thanatos as literal and metaphorical qualities. The historical and personal adventures of the two characters represent a daedal itinerary from East to West, which offers multiple levels of reading of the filmic texts. A comparative approach with myth, literature, and historical research will demonstrate the richness of artistic expression and a profound relationship of Angelopoulos＇ thought with the formulaic myths he introduces in his filmic work.展开更多

A MSLB is defined as a pipe break in the main steam system. This data was used to validate the safety analysis code SPACE （safety and performance analysis code for nuclear power plants）. In the test, a double-ended guillotined break of the main steam line was simulated. After steady-state was reached, the test was started by opening the break simulation valves. With the start of the test, the pressure of the secondary system decreased rapidly, and reached the set-point of the LSGP （low steam generator pressure） signal. With the occurrence of the LSGP signal, the main steam isolation valves were closed. The SIPs （safety injection pumps） were started by the LPP （low pressurizer pressure） signal. In order to validate the SPACE code, a double-ended guillotine break of the main steam line at ATLAS was simulated. Most of the results show good agreement between the experiment data and the code calculated values.展开更多
