Abstract Belted bias and radial Course Monitoring Tires were run over the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration tread wear course at San Angelo on a vehicle instrumented to measure lateral and longitudinal accelerations, speed, and number of wheel rotations. The data were recorded as histograms. The distribution of speed, the distributions of lateral and longitudinal acceleration, and the number of acceleration level crossings are given. Acceleration data for segments of the course are also given.

Criteria Importance

Sustainable traffic system management under conditions of uncertainty and inappropriate road infrastructure is a responsible and complex task. In Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH), there is a large number of level crossings which represent potentially risky places in traffic. The current state of level crossings in BiH is a problem of the greatest interest for the railway and a generator of accidents. Accordingly, it is necessary to identify the places that are currently a priority for the adoption of measures and traffic control in order to achieve sustainability of the whole system. In this paper, the Šamac–Doboj railway section and passive level crossings have been considered. Fifteen different criteria were formed and divided into three main groups: safety criteria, road exploitation characteristics, and railway exploitation characteristics. A novel integrated fuzzy FUCOM (full consistency method)—fuzzy PIPRECIA (pivot pairwise relative criteria importance assessment) model was formed to determine the significance of the criteria. When calculating the weight values of the main criteria, the fuzzy Heronian mean operator was used for their averaging. The evaluation of level crossings was performed using fuzzy MARCOS (measurement of alternatives and ranking according to compromise solution). An original integrated fuzzy FUCOM–Fuzzy PIPRECIA–Fuzzy MARCOS model was created as the main contribution of the paper. The results showed that level crossings 42 + 690 (LC4) and LC8 (82 + 291) are the safest considering all 15 criteria. The verification of the results was performed through four phases of sensitivity analysis: resizing of an initial fuzzy matrix, comparative analysis with other fuzzy approaches, simulations of criterion weight values, and calculation of Spearman’s correlation coefficient (SCC). Finally, measures for the sustainable performance of the railway system were proposed.

Analytic Hierarchy Process Method

Focusing on the road-railway level-crossings of the urban, basing on the attribute mathematics methods, the access safety influence factors of the railway level-crossings are analyzed. Basing on the analytic hierarchy process method, the assessment indexes, which impair the level-crossings system safety status, are set. Firstly, the attribute measurements of every single-index are calculated by mean of the construction of attribute measurement functions. Secondly, according to the similarity function theory, the similarity weights of the influence factors are defined, so as to assess the multi-indexes measurements objectively. Finally, make use of the confidence criterion to recognize the level-crossing system safety. Taking one of the railway level-crossings in Dalian as an example, the assessment results show that the attribute recognition result would not be affected by the index weight, namely, the weight values of the assessing indexes are considered as the same. The study shows that the method is feasible, reliable and easy for the synthetic safety assessment of the urban railway level-crossings safety
