The best location for speed bump installation using Taguchi and classical design of experiments

Speed bumps as a traffic-calming technique can be a key issue in ensuring safe passage through secondary roads. Limited works in finding the best location of speed bumps prior to stop points has prompted this investigation. The objectives of this work are to explore the influence of factors in deter...
