| description | The safety issues of road transport operation have been relevant for more than 125 years. During this time, the vision of the essence and ideas about the principles and methods of ensuring road safety (traffic safety paradigms) have changed several times in the world scientific community. The purpose of this article is to present to the scientific community a new, developing entropy approach to assessing the quality of traffic safety system management. The need to use entropy approaches is dictated by the awareness of two main circumstances: the extreme variety of forms, composition and, ultimately, the complexity of transport systems, as well as the low effectiveness of using traditional modeling methods in assessing the quality of large and complex systems, which include traffic safety systems.
The use of the entropy approach in the field of traffic safety management is very innovative for Russia. Already quite traditional for other spheres of human existence, the methods of entropy assessment of systemic organization are unfamiliar to transport specialists. In this regard, it should be noted that the entropy approach allows solving those tasks in the field of traffic safety that are inaccessible to conventional tools. An example of such tasks can be a quantitative assessment and comparison of the quality of management of regional traffic safety systems. This is especially important for improving the quality of federal traffic safety management, in particular, for improving goal-setting and subsequent financing of the relevant regional traffic safety programs. This is the practical significance of the author’s ideas.
This article presents a method for quantifying the Relative entropy Hn of regional traffic safety systems; comparison and explanation of different levels of organization of traffic safety systems in the Orenburg region and the Republic of Tyva; an entropy classification of regional traffic safety systems in Russia by levels of system organization is presented (2021); an attempt was made to philosophically comprehend the results obtained.
The results presented in the article are intermediate. The ideology of using the entropy assessment of system organization can be used not only in relation to such an important aspect of the functioning of transport systems as traffic safety, but also to the identification of other system properties, such as efficiency and quality. |
