“…This variable is quite apparent: without lanes, riders will find it difficult to control their vehicles, causing them to intrude on the traffic lane in the opposite direction, so it is necessary to swerve away, and near misses are likely to occur frequently. This is consistent with the study of Nguyen et al [ 40 ], which found that driving in the wrong lane has a high probability of causing a collision. However, V20 was discovered to be a random parameter with a distribution above zero = 72.78 % ( Fig.…”

“…The physical road characteristics can result in near misses, such as cutting points at different areas, for example, roundabouts, and intersections [ 40 ]. Various warning signs at intersections or roundabouts, the absence of warning signs, and faulty or damaged signs can also cause accidents and near misses [ 41 ].…”

“…Remember that including 20 or 50 participants in such sessions will result in the complexity of the situation and difficulty of managing the discussions. On the other hand, if only a few participants are included, reliability will be decreased, and creative ideas may not be extracted (Nguyen et al, 2022). That said, many benefits have been enlisted in the literature for the FGD technique; first, collective views of participants achieved through this technique can result in deep insights into a certain issue; second, to adopt FGD, there is no need for a large sample size; third, feedback can be received directly and instantly from participants coming from different backgrounds and experiences; finally, this technique can be performed relatively easily since all the participants concurrently gather in one place (Sadeghi et al, 2020).…”

PurposeTo come up with a prudent decision on the installation of an appropriate green wall (GW) on buildings, this study presents a novel decision-making algorithm. The proposed algorithm considers the importance of barriers hampering GW adoption, as well as their relationships with regard to different types of GWs existing in a contextual setting.Design/methodology/approachThe proposed methodological approach is based on the integration of qualitative and quantitative techniques by employing focus group discussion, fuzzy-based best-worst method and fuzzy TOPSIS.FindingsBased on the experiences of qualified experts involved in related projects in Hong Kong, the following conclusions are drawn: (1) cost, installation and maintenance-related barriers are perceived to have the highest importance, (2) modular living wall system is the most suitable GW system for the context of Hong Kong and (3) existing barriers are found to have a pivotal role in the ranking of the most suitable GW systems.Practical implicationsThe findings provide valuable insight not only for policymakers and stakeholders, but also for establishing a methodological approach that can assist decision-makers in identifying the most beneficial GW system rather than the most applicable one. This could have significant implications and introduce potential changes to the common way of practice within the industry and lay the foundation for wider adoption of GW.Originality/valueWhile previous studies have investigated the sustainability-related issues of GW façade applications, the current body of knowledge is deprived of a comprehensive methodological approach for the selection of the most suitable GW systems.

“…Besides secondary crash data, researchers used primary data collected directly from road users and crash victims to explore the causes of traffic crashes at horizontal curves. The most popular research techniques used in the previous studies are, for example, focus group discussions, in-depth interviews, or face-to-face interviews, to collect, analyze, and explore direct and indirect causes of traffic crashes [12][13][14][15][16]. These studies have contributed to solving some practical issues for roadway departure crashes; however, some drawbacks still exist.…”

The horizontal curve segment is where traffic crashes often occur in rural areas of Vietnam. Although many safety countermeasures have been implemented, their effectiveness still needs to improve. The main reason is that the implemented countermeasures are unfit for the crash causes. More specifically, determining crash causes and contributory factors to the severity of crashes needs to be more accurate because of the need for more critical data and specialized analytical tools. This study applies the crash reconstruction technique to simulate, reconstruct, and analyze crashes that occurred at horizontal curve segments to address the abovementioned issues. The study results have reproduced the sequence of events, crash causes, and contributory factors to the severity of roadway departure crashes of four-wheeled vehicles in rural areas. This research is a scientific foundation to help researchers choose the suitable technique to reconstruct traffic crashes and identify the appropriate solutions for enhancing traffic safety at horizontal curve segments in Vietnam.
