Probabilistic assessment of wind related accidents of road vehicles: A reliability approach

A general probabilistic model for assessment of road vehicle accidents in windy environments is presented. The limit states of safe performance are outlined and the accident point is defined in the space of basic variables. The probability of accident is evaluated using a so-called safety index appr...
