Abstract This paper discusses two urgent problems that need to be solved in fully automatic operation (FAO) for urban rail transit. The first is the analysis of safety in FAO, while another is the analysis of efficiency in FAO. Firstly, this paper establishes an operational safety evaluation index system from the perspective of operation for the unique or typical risk sources of the FAO system, and uses the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) to evaluate the indicators, analyzes various factors that affect the safe operation of FAO, and provides safety management recommendations for FAO lines operation to maintain the FAO system specifically.… More >

Abstract With the development of economy and society and the growth of population, the high-rise and multi-function of commercial buildings have become an international trend. But it also poses huge fire hazards. Most of the existing studies’ research objects are predominantly high-rise residential buildings, without considering the impact of different functional zones (Standard floor, entertainment zone, office zone, equipment room and so on) and personnel distribution of commercial buildings evacuation. And the influence of using elevators to carry evacuees on the refuge floor on personnel evacuation is rarely studied. In this work, the fire scenario of the Yangtze River International Conference… More >

Abstract With the increasing usage of drugs to remedy different diseases, drug safety has become crucial over the past few years. Often medicine from several companies is offered for a single disease that involves the same/similar substances with slightly different formulae. Such diversification is both helpful and dangerous as such medicine proves to be more effective or shows side effects to different patients. Despite clinical trials, side effects are reported when the medicine is used by the mass public, of which several such experiences are shared on social media platforms. A system capable of analyzing such reviews could be very helpful… More >

Abstract To study riding safety at intersection entrance, video recognition technology is used to build vehicle-bicycle conflict models based on the Bayesian method. It is analyzed the relationship among the width of non-motorized lanes at the entrance lane of the intersection, the vehicle-bicycle soft isolation form of the entrance lane of intersection, the traffic volume of right-turning motor vehicles and straight-going non-motor vehicles, the speed of right-turning motor vehicles, and straight-going non-motor vehicles, and the conflict between right-turning motor vehicles and straight-going non-motor vehicles. Due to the traditional statistical methods, to overcome the discreteness of vehicle-bicycle conflict data and the differences… More >

Abstract Based on the upper bound theorem, the fire resistance is studied using the combination of element collapse mechanisms of steel frames, where the element collapse mechanisms are automatically determined from independent mechanisms. The fire limit load is calculated by solving a nonlinear mathematical programming. The computing procedure is programmed by FORTRAN language. Results show that this method is useful to find the collapse mechanism with the lowest fire limit load, which can provide a theoretical and practical way for the fire design of steel frame structure.
