The book's website (with databases and other support materials) can be accessed here. Praise for the Second Edition: The second edition introduces an especially broad set of statistical methods ... As a lecturer in both transportation and marketing research, I find this book an excellent textbook for advanced undergraduate, Master’s and Ph.D. students, covering topics from simple descriptive statistics to complex Bayesian models. ... It is one of the few books that cover an extensive set of statistical methods needed for data analysis in transportation. The book offers a wealth of examples from the transportation field. —The American Statistician Statistical and Econometric Methods for Transportation Data Analysis, Third Edition offers an expansion over the first and second editions in response to the recent methodological advancements in the fields of econometrics and statistics and to provide an increasing range of examples and corresponding data sets. It describes and illustrates some of the statistical and econometric tools commonly used in transportation data analysis. It provides a wide breadth of examples and case studies, covering applications in various aspects of transportation planning, engineering, safety, and economics. Ample analytical rigor is provided in each chapter so that fundamental concepts and principles are clear and numerous references are provided for those seeking additional technical details and applications. New to the Third Edition Updated references and improved examples throughout. New sections on random parameters linear regression and ordered probability models including the hierarchical ordered probit model. A new section on random parameters models with heterogeneity in the means and variances of parameter estimates. Multiple new sections on correlated random parameters and correlated grouped random parameters in probit, logit and hazard-based models. A new section discussing the practical aspects of random parameters model estimation. A new chapter on Latent Class Models. A new chapter on Bivariate and Multivariate Dependent Variable Models. Statistical and Econometric Methods for Transportation Data Analysis, Third Edition can serve as a textbook for advanced undergraduate, Masters, and Ph.D. students in transportation-related disciplines including engineering, economics, urban and regional planning, and sociology. The book also serves as a technical reference for researchers and practitioners wishing to examine and understand a broad range of statistical and econometric tools required to study transportation problems.

This book discusses the latest advances in the research and development, design, operation, and analysis of transportation systems, including road, rail, aviation, aerospace and maritime as well as their supporting systems and infrastructure. Focusing specifically on the contributions made by human factors and ergonomics, it analyses a wealth of topics, methods and technologies associated to accident analysis, automated and autonomous vehicles, assessment of comfort and distraction of drivers, and environmental concerns, giving emphasis to intelligent transport systems and driver-assistance systems, among other topics. Based on contributions to the AHFE 2021 Conference on Human Aspects of Transportation, held virtually on July 25-29, 2021, from USA, this book offers extensive information on the latest human factors and ergonomics thinking and practice in the area of transportation, and a thought-provoking guide to researchers, graduate students and professionals in this field.

"TRB Special Report 292 ... recommends the creation of an independent scientific advisory committee (SAC). The SAC would be charged with development of a transparent process for identifying and prioritizing research needs and opportunities in highway safety, with emphasis on infrastructure and operations, and using the process developed to recommend a national research agenda focused on highway infrastructure and operations safety. The report also explores opportunities to improve the quality of highway safety research." -- publisher's website.

Transforming medical healthcare through research is a research book that comprises of three major parts which are the Basic medical sciences research, clinical research, and case series. All these authors have participated in our Medical Research Symposium 2021 which was conducted online due to the pandemic. It highlights the latest scientific research findings in each area of expertise. This e-book is published to embrace the concept of open access to knowledge and sustainability by compiling the results of their resilience and dedication to be shared with the academic community. All articles were selected by experts in the field and peer reviewed. We really hope that this e-book would benefit other academicians, researchers, clinicians, and both undergraduate and postgraduate students for future reference in their research work in medical and health sciences.

There are approximately 4,000 fatalities in crashes involving trucks and buses in the United States each year. Though estimates are wide-ranging, possibly 10 to 20 percent of these crashes might have involved fatigued drivers. The stresses associated with their particular jobs (irregular schedules, etc.) and the lifestyle that many truck and bus drivers lead, puts them at substantial risk for insufficient sleep and for developing short- and long-term health problems. Commercial Motor Vehicle Driver Fatigue, Long-Term Health and Highway Safety assesses the state of knowledge about the relationship of such factors as hours of driving, hours on duty, and periods of rest to the fatigue experienced by truck and bus drivers while driving and the implications for the safe operation of their vehicles. This report evaluates the relationship of these factors to drivers' health over the longer term, and identifies improvements in data and research methods that can lead to better understanding in both areas.

"TRB's National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Report 726: A Guidebook for Nighttime Construction: Impacts on Safety, Quality, and Productivity provides suggested guidance on the conduct of nighttime highway construction and maintenance operations. These guidelines are based on best practices and strategies for nighttime operations that relate to the personnel and traveling public safety and the quality of the as-built facility. The guide also addresses work-zone risk analysis planning and implementation, construction nuisances to both neighbors and workers, and work-zone illumination methods."--Publisher's description.
