Based on the formulae of WALK and flashing DON＇T WALK （FDW） in the highway capacity manual （HCM）, the relationship between pedestrian signal indications and vehicular signal indications is discussed using the theory of traffic flow.

Ways of pedestrian crossing are analyzed for roadways with different forms and widths of the median island.

As with Heidegger, this is attempted through a turn towards art and the ＂emancipated contingency＂ that characterizes much creative production. In contrast to action and production within the knowledge economy, the creation of the artwork concerns a knowing of unknowingness （described by Maurice Blanchot as the neutral） that demands a rethink of action in relation to truth and errancy. Indeed, the very working of the work of art is conceived here as a truth that is precisely ＂set to work＂ （Heidegger） by errancy. Through a consideration of the essential difference between choice and decision and the different ＂beginning＂ of art that this suggests, the essay concludes with some reflections of the theme of art＇s fascination and the and the affirmation of the unknown.展开更多

文摘The pedestrian timing at signalized intersections is studied aiming at the problems of the inconsistency of the vehicular and pedestrian timing requirements and the insufficiency of pedestrian clearance. Based on the formulae of WALK and flashing DON＇T WALK （FDW） in the highway capacity manual （HCM）, the relationship between pedestrian signal indications and vehicular signal indications is discussed using the theory of traffic flow. Then, methods of pedestrian timing for different cases are established, particularly the methods of the pedestrian green adjustment. Ways of pedestrian crossing are analyzed for roadways with different forms and widths of the median island. The sampling values of calculation parameters are studied, and the recommended formulae of pedestrian timing for different conditions are presented.
