Traffic accidents at urban intersections represent a major road safety concern, particularly those caused by traffic signal violations. To analyze accident mechanisms and develop effective prevention strategies, this study employs a cellular automata model to investigate the relationship between accident probability and traffic parameters at signalized intersections. Simulation results reveal a nonlinear relationship between Pac and traffic demand. The accident probability reaches a maximum under free-flow conditions and subsequently decreases as congestion increases, eventually stabilizing at a nearly constant level under highly congested traffic. Additionally, collision risk increases with lane-changing probability , especially upstream of the intersection. High traffic speeds significantly elevate both accident probability and severity. Finally, the results indicate that extending traffic signal cycle durations is not an effective strategy for reducing accident risk. Overall, the proposed model provides a useful framework for estimating accident risk under different traffic conditions and supporting traffic management, including control decisions aimed at improving road safety.
In this present paper, the electronic, magnetic and optical properties of the double Perovskites Ba2MUO6 with (M=Ni, Co, Cd and Zn) are investigated in the framework of the Generalized Gradient Approximation (GGA), employing the Full Potential-Linearized Augmented Plane Wave (FP-LAPW) method as implemented in the Wien2K package. The only method used to study these three types of the properties of these compounds is Density Functional Theory (DFT) approach. Thanks to this method, several of the detailed results related to the three studied properties of these compounds are determined; specifically, the optimization of parameters of structures, the band structures, the electronic densities of states (DOS), reflectivity, transmittance and absorbance. Finally, the comparison between these results obtained in this theoretical study and the experimental values makes it clear that they are virtually in good agreement with each other.
