Toolbox of Countermeasures for Rural Two-Lane Curves, June 2012
No full textThe Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) estimates that 58 percent of roadway fatalities are lane departures, while 40 percent of fatalities are single-vehicle run-off-road (SVROR) crashes. Addressing lane-departure crashes is therefore a priority for national, state, and local roadway agencies. Horizontal curves are of particular interest because they have been correlated with increased crash occurrence.
This toolbox was developed to assist agencies address crashes at rural curves. The main objective of this toolbox is to summarize the effectiveness of various known curve countermeasures.
While education, enforcement, and policy countermeasures should also be considered, they were not included given the toolbox focuses on roadway-based countermeasures. Furthermore, the toolbox is geared toward rural two-lane curves.
The research team identified countermeasures based on their own research, through a survey of the literature, and through discussions with other professionals. Coverage of curve countermeasures in this toolbox is not necessarily comprehensive.
For each countermeasure covered, this toolbox includes the following information: description, application, effectiveness, advantages, and disadvantages
Perspektywy rozwoju biotechnologii w Polsce
No full textWażnym czynnikiem rozwoju biotechnologii w Polsce są nowoczesne badania naukowe. Artykuł Perspektywy rozwoju biotechnologii w Polsce zwraca uwagę na to, że wiedza z zakresu nauk biologicznych i medycznych przyczynia się do większej konkurencyjności zarówno ośrodków naukowych i badawczych, jak i przedsiębiorstw. Biotechnologiczne projekty naukowo–badawcze realizowane w Polsce nie tworzą jeszcze podstaw do wytwarzania produktów biotechnologicznych w takim zakresie, by polskie przedsiębiorstwa mogły konkurować na rynku międzynarodowych. Jedną z przyczyn, którą analizuje Autor w artykule, jest niewystarczające inwestowanie w rozwój nauki i wsparcie dla małych i średnich firm w sektorze biotechnologii. MSP są najważniejszym elementem rozwoju tego sektora, ponieważ koncentrują się na tworzeniu i rozwoju nowoczesnych produktów biotechnologicznych. Artykuł został podzielony na dwie części: Szanse rozwoju nowoczesnej gospodarki w Polsce bez biotechnologii oraz Edukacja i projekty B+R. Autor finalizuje rozważania, pokazując pozytywny scenariusz dla rozwoju sektora biotechnologicznego w Polsce.Biotechnology uses biological processes in the development of technology or manufacture of a product. It is forecasted that Polish biotechnology industry will exceed very quickly. The technology and science parks in Poland have invested millions Euros to build new laboratories. Polish market is fuelled by increased R&D funding, central and regional governments initiatives. The article on “Polish perspectives of biotechnology development” identifies significant factors for biotechnology project development. It also indicates the examples of government biotechnology initiatives in the world. The author focuses on the statistical analysis of the research and development projects conducted by Polish scientist in scientific laboratories. His main conclusion is that biotechnology will be very important in developing Poland, Polish universities, research and development organizations.Udostępnienie publikacji Wydawnictwa Uniwersytetu Łódzkiego finansowane w ramach projektu „Doskonałość naukowa kluczem do doskonałości kształcenia”.

NJBankers 2015 Economic Survey: Final Analysis and Report of Survey Findings
No full textThis is the fifth annual Economic Survey. The survey inquires about national and state current economic assessments, as well as six-month projections; expectations about long-term and short-term interest rates; commercial real estate submarket and loan demand; and residential loan and refinance demand. The survey also explores real estate values, currently and expected, as well as a set of negative indicators and common obstacles to lending. The survey series probes metrics about the national, state, and banking market economies in order to better understand, and, in turn, better facilitate the growth, development, and common interests of the banking sector in the state of New Jersey. Conducted by the Bloustein Center for Survey Research (BCSR) under the direction of James Hughes, Marc Weiner and BCSR senior research specialist Orin Puniello,Conducted for New Jersey Bankers Association"January 2015

Walker Lane GPS Rates
No full textThe interseismic motion of GPS stations in a tectonically active, diffuse, strike-slip shear zone provide constraints on the overall deformation budget that can be compared to the summation of geologically-estimated fault slip rates to understand regional strain accommodation. The Walker Lane GPS velocities in this dataset represent a subset of GPS stations included in the Nevada Geodetic Laboratory MIDAS velocity solution (Blewitt et al., 2016, 2018; accessible at http://geodesy.unr.edu/velocities/midas.NA12.txt, last accessed 11/19/2020) . This dataset includes velocities for all GPS stations located between 34° N – 43° N latitude and 114° W – 123° W longitude with time series longer than 2.5 years from the semi-continuous MAGNET network operated by the Nevada Geodetic Laboratory (Blewitt et al., 2009) and neighboring continuous GPS stations. The MIDAS velocities are calculated using daily position data collected through August 2019 presented in the NA12 reference frame (Blewitt et al., 2013) , and corrected for the postseismic effects of historic ruptures in and surrounding the Walker Lane. The MIDAS algorithm is a median trend estimator that mitigates both seasonality and step discontinuities in the times series (Blewitt et al., 2016). The resulting velocities are insensitive to the coseismic and postseismic effects of earthquakes that occurred after the midpoint of the time series (Blewitt et al., 2016) , such as the July 2019 Ridgecrest, CA M w 6.4 and 7.1 sequence, but must be corrected for the post-seismic effects of earthquakes that occurred prior to the middle of time series, such as the historic surface rupturing earthquakes in Central Nevada Seismic Belt and the 1993 Landers M w 7.3, and 1999 Hector Mine M w 7.0 events. We apply the viscoelastic postseismic relaxation correction from Bormann et al. (2013) that was developed using the method of Hammond et al. (2010) and the preferred western Basin and Range lower crust (10 20.5 Pa-s) and upper mantle (10 19 Pa-s) viscosity model of Hammond et al. (2009).
When using this dataset, please also cite Blewitt et al (2018) as the authors of the original MIDAS NA12 reference frame velocity solution is the basis for our postseismic corrected Walker Lane velocities: Blewitt, G., Hammond, W.C., Kreemer, C., 2018.
