Li, R., El-Basyouny, K., Kim, A.
This study examined the safety effects of the City of Edmonton’s mobile enforcement program. Four years of city-wide monthly collision data, enforcement statistics, and employment rate data was incorporated in a generalized linear Poisson model. It was found that the estimations of the...

It is evident that epigenetic factors, especially DNA methylation, have essential roles in obesity development. Here, using pig as a model, we investigate the systematic association between DNA methylation and obesity. We sample eight variant adipose and two distinct skeletal muscle tissues from...

Before-and-after empirical Bayes evaluation of automated mobile speed enforcement on urban arterial roads
Download2019-11-12
Li, R., El-Basyouny, K., Kim, A.
Speeding is a leading factor in road collisions and is found to contribute to approximately one third of fatal collisions. Speed enforcement is one of the most common countermeasures used to reduce speed. However, a gap exists in the literature regarding the effectiveness of automated mobile...

Evaluation of centrifugal methods for measuring xylem cavitation in conifers, diffuse and ringporous angiosperms
Download2008
Hacke, U.G., Taneda, H., Li, Y., Sperry, J.S., Bush, S.E.
• A centrifugal method is used to measure ‘vulnerability curves’ which show the loss of hydraulic conductivity in xylem by cavitation. Until recently, conductivity was measured between bouts of centrifugation using a gravity-induced head. Now, conductivity can be measured during centrifugation....

Factors Affecting Classification of Road Segments into High-and Low-Speed Collision Regimes
Download2019-11-12
Gargoum, S., Li, Y., El-Basyouny, K., Kim, A.
The safety of locations operating under high-speed conditions could significantly differ from that of locations operating under low-speed conditions. Therefore, different approaches must be adopted when analyzing and managing speed and safety at locations operating under different regimes....

Interactive allocation of mobile photo enforcement resources with multiple program objectives
Download2019-11-06
Li, Y., Kim, A., El-Basyouny, K.
Managers of mobile photo enforcement (MPE) programs must account for several road safety goals when deploying operators. However, there is no MPE design structure to systematically connect deployment decisions back to preset goals. We propose a method to aid MPE managers in using goals directly...

Li, Y., Xie, J., Kim, A. M., El‐Basyouny, K.
Agencies that manage mobile photo enforcement (MPE) programmes must decide where and when to send their limited resources to monitor compliance with speed limits. Usually, the goal is to select locations based on a number of concerns (i.e., high collision sites, high speed violation sites, school...

Operating a mobile photo radar enforcement program: A framework for site selection, resource allocation, scheduling, and evaluation
Download2019-11-07
Kim, A. M., Wang, X., El-Basyouny, K., Fu, Q.
This paper introduces a systematic, data-driven framework by which to operate a mobile photo radar enforcement (MPRE) program, consisting broadly of site choice, enforcement resource allocation and scheduling, and evaluation. The overall goal is provide a framework for operating an MPRE program...

Relationship between road safety and mobile photo enforcement performance indicators: A case study of the city of Edmonton
Download2019-11-12
Li, R., El-Basyouny, K., Kim, A., Gargoum, S.
Mobile photo enforcement (MPE) programs are commonly implemented to regulate speed and improve road safety. However, most previous research focuses mainly on validating the safety effects of MPE, with very minimal discussion on the enforcement performance indicators (EPIs). Therefore, the goal of...

Towards setting credible speed limits: Identifying factors that affect driver compliance on urban roads
Download2019-11-07
Gargoum, S. A., El-Basyouny, K., Kim, A.
Road geometry, vehicle characteristics, and weather conditions are all factors that impact a driver’s perception of a safe or credible speed and, consequently, the driver’s decision on whether or not to comply with the posted speed limit. In fact, the role a road’s environment plays in a driver’s...
