Bezpečnosť účastníkov cestnej premávky a ich vplyv na vnímanie dopravnej situácie
(University of Žilina, 2023) Ballay, Michal; Macurová, Ľudmila; Kohút, Pavol; Rédl, Miroslav
When analysing an accident scene, one of the significant tasks is to evaluate the driver's ability to perceive the traffic situation according to different aspects. Currently, there are various eye movement measurement systems designed to perform a high-quality reconstruction of the direction of eye movement of road users depending on time. In addition to the basic physiology of the perception of road users, the paper deals with using the Viewpointsystem® measurement system designed to analyse eye movement when perceiving the traffic situation. The article assesses the development of traffic accidents in the Slovak Republic according to the consequences of traffic accidents and categories of road users. As part of determining the decisive moment for a collision situation, an analysis of the direction of the eye movement of the driver of the vehicle during a dangerous traffic situation while driving on a road section located in a rural area is performed.
Identifikácia a hodnotenie problémových objektov cestnej infraštruktúry z hľadiska prejazdnosti hasičskej techniky
(Žilinská univerzita v Žiline, 2023) Leitner, Bohuš; Ballay, Michal; Krišanda, Ján
The paper contains the characteristics and results of the proposed procedure for the locations and specific objects of the transport infrastructure identification in the selected territory, which may have a negative impact on the conditions for the smooth passage of firefighting equipment. The aim of the paper is the presentation of a practically focused procedure for identifying problem areas and objects on land roads from the point of view of fast and safe transportation of emergency equipment to the scene of the incident. The article contains a description of the proposed, practically oriented, procedure designed to reveal the so-called permanent or temporary critical locations and selected results from its practical application to the emergency perimeter of the Liptovský Hrádok fire station
Optimalizácia dopravného plánovania plošnej evakuácie mikroregiónu aplikáciou metód riešenia dopravných úloh
(Žilinská univerzita v Žiline, 2023) Ballay, Michal; Gašparíková, Zuzana; Leitner, Bohuš
Distribution tasks represent a group of optimization problems, the goal of which is usually to minimize the total cost of transporting goods or people within various complex logistics processes. In the field of general evacuation, transport tasks appear to be a suitable tool for planning the optimal way of transporting evacuees from boarding points to evacuation centres. The aim of the paper is to demonstrate the possibilities of optimization procedures for distribution problems with a focus on planning and managing the transport planning in the area evacuation process, in which the HaZZ units can also be deployed as an assistance element, but rather the DHZ or DHZO units. The paper contains a proposal for the transportation of residents of a micro-region threatened by a flood during their evacuation to designated evacuation centres, supported by optimization calculations.

Prototyp výcvikového zariadenia určený pre hasičské jednotky
(University of Zilina, 2021) Ballay, Michal
The article focuses on the hydraulic discharge device in relationship to car parts. It presents and describes a training device prototype, which is intended for fire brigade units. Training equipment itself significantly contributes to the research of conditions for intervention activities of the Fire and Rescue Corps, education and training of students. The training device enables the identification of the optimum shear point on the car, which results in improved workflow timing, making rescue operations more effective and increasing the performance of Fire and Rescue Corps members. The final part of the article describes the safety rules for using the device as well as individual benefits, from a scientific perspective or in terms of practical benefits.
Vybrané problémy hasičských jednotiek pri zdolávaní požiarov elektromobilov
(University of Žilina, 2023) Konárik, Milan; Ballay, Michal; Svetlík, Jozef; Kalužník, Dávid
The article deals with the topic of electric cars. In the introductory part, the development of the number of electric powered assenger vehicles within the European Union and the Slovak Republic is analyzed. The main part of the article is the assessment of the available material and technical equipment of fire brigades in responding to an electric car fire. These unforeseen circumstances are a new challenge for fire brigades, characterized by the difficulty of response activities. The firefighting equipment and gear of the firefighting units are designed to be a safe and effective way of extinguishing electric vehicle fires. The article points to new means available to firefighting units in the event of these fires.
