Toward a rational and ethical sociotechnical system of autonomous vehicles: A novel application of multi-criteria decision analysis

PLOS ONE, 16(8).

By: V. Dubljevic n, G. List n, J. Milojevich*, N. Ajmeri n, W. Bauer n, M. Singh n, E. Bardaka n, T. Birkland n ...

MeSH headings : Accidents, Traffic / prevention & control; Attitude; Automation / ethics; Automation / legislation & jurisprudence; Automobile Driving / psychology; Autonomous Vehicles / ethics; Autonomous Vehicles / legislation & jurisprudence; Decision Support Techniques; Humans; Models, Statistical; Morals; Ownership / economics; Surveys and Questionnaires
TL;DR: The results suggest that two of these scenarios, namely regulated privately-owned introduction or fleet ownership or autonomous vehicles would be less likely to cause harm than either the status quo or the unfettered options. (via Semantic Scholar)

Significance of multi-hazard risk in design of buildings under earthquake and wind loads

ENGINEERING STRUCTURES, 243.

author keywords: Earthquake and wind hazards; Performance-based design; Risk-based multi-hazard approach; Multi-hazard risk map; Multi-hazard scenario; Magneto-rheological damper; Adjacent buildings
TL;DR: This paper proposes a novel framework that builds upon performance-based design requirements and determines whether the design of a building is governed primarily by a single hazard or multiple hazards, and integrates site-dependent hazard characteristics with the performance criteria for a given building type and building geometry.
