This article analyzes traffic conflicts in a parking area in front of a shopping center, which functions similarly to a shared space. The study specifically monitored interactions between pedestrians and vehicles in an environment lacking formal traffic signage and pedestrian crossings. A total of 33 traffic conflicts were documented, with 29 classified as Level 1, involving minor adjustments in speed and direction, and 4 as Level 2, requiring more significant maneuvers and evasive actions. This research highlights the importance of understanding traffic conflicts as a critical aspect of evaluating safety in shared spaces. The findings indicate that even without formal regulations, the area remains safe due to mutual respect and informal communication among users. Over the past five years, only two traffic accidents occurred, underscoring the effectiveness of informal traffic management. This study contributes a valuable perspective on shared space safety and suggests that informal systems can effectively maintain safe interactions between vehicles and pedestrians.

This paper presents the numerical simulation of generalized Newtonian fluids flow in the bypass geometry. The considered geometry consists of the narrowed main tube and the bypass graft. The quality of the blood flow in the bypass can be influenced by a location of the narrowing or by the geometry. The optimal angle for the connecting of the bypass graft to the vessel is around 45 degrees, therefore this work is mentioned on the numerical modelling of the varied mathematical models of the viscosity with the angle of the connection 45 and 60 degrees. Our study is focused on testing different types of bypass geometry, standard and S-type bypass connections. As well as various narrowing of the problematic section in the main channel are presented. Symmetrical and unsymmetrical narrowing is tested for both types of bypass. The governing system of equations is based on the system of balance laws for mass and momentum. Generalized Newtonian fluids flow in the bypass is numerically simulated by using open source CFD tool, OpenFOAM with a SIMPLE algorithm.

The article presents results of testing of influence of design parameters on the road safety at roundabouts. Hypotheses about the influence of particular design parameters on the road safety were created and these were verified using traffic accident and traffic conflict data of roundabouts. This approach can help to define the safe extent of particular design parameters of a roundabout and increase the level of road safety consequently.

The following paper describes a numerical simulation of a complete bypass of a stenosed human artery. The considered geometry consists of the narrowed host tube and the bypass graft with a 45-degree angle of connection. Different diameters of the narrowing are tested. Blood is the fluid with shear rate-dependent viscosity; therefore, various rheology mathematical models for generalized Newtonian fluids are considered, namely Cross model, modified Cross model, Carreau model, and Carreau-Yasuda model. The fundamental system of equations is based on the system of generalized Navier-Stokes equations. Generalized Newtonian fluids flow in a bypass tube is numerically simulated by using a SIMPLE algorithm included in the open-source CFD tool, OpenFOAM. The aim of this work is to compare the numerical results for the different mathematical models of the viscosity with the changing diameter of the narrowed channel.

The aim of this work is to present numerical results of non-Newtonian fluid flow in a model of bypass. Different angle of a connection between narrowed channel and the bypass graft is considered. Several rheology viscosity models were used for the non-Newtonian fluid, namely the modified Cross model and the Carreau-Yasuda model. The results of non-Newtonian fluid flow are compared to the results of Newtonian fluid. The fundamental system of equations is the generalized system of Navier-Stokes equations for incompressible laminar flow. Generalized Newtonian fluids flow in the bypass is numerically simulated by using an open source CFD tool, OpenFOAM.

This work presents the numerical solution of generalized Newtonian fluids in the bypass geometry. The considered geometry consists of the narrowed host tube and the bypass graft with 30, 45, 60 degrees angle of the connection. Two values of the Reynolds number, 100, 200, are tested. The numerical results of non-Newtonian fluids are compared to the results of Newtonian fluids. The governing system of equations is based on the system of balance laws for mass and momentum. Generalized Newtonian fluids flow in the bypass tube is numerically simulated by using SIMPLE algorithm included in OpenFOAM.

This work examines the study of a complete bypass with a stenosed native artery. The fundamental system of equations is based on the system of Navier-Stokes equations. A Newtonian fluids flow in a bypass tube is numerically simulated by using the open source CFD tool, OpenFOAM and a SIMPLE (Semi Implicit Method for Pressure Linked Equations) algorithm for numerical solution is used. Numerical tests are conducted on a three dimensional geometry with a circle cross section. Dierent diameters of stenosis are tested and the numerical results for the described model of the bypass geometry are presented and discussed.
