1. Human Vehicle Interaction Drivers’ Body and Visual Behaviour and Tools and Process for Analysis
Abstract : Vehicle design is characterized by a high number of compromises. The special role of human factors in the process is to ensure that the compromises do not occur at the expense of the driver and passengers. READ MORE

2. The development of methods for detection and assessment of safety critical events in car driving
Abstract : Improving our knowledge of drivers behaviour, especially in hazardous situations is a key to understanding why accidents occur and how to improve safety on our roads. Crash surrogate measures have proven to be very useful in traffic safety analysis. READ MORE

3. Driver interaction with vulnerable road users: Understanding and modelling driver behaviour for the design and evaluation of intelligent safety systems
Abstract : Every year, more than 5000 pedestrians and 2000 cyclists die on European roads. These vulnerable road users (VRU) are at especially high risk when interacting with motorised vehicles. READ MORE

4. Modelling driver steering and neuromuscular behaviour
Abstract : This thesis challenges the traditional view of treating steering behaviour as a tracking task, instead treating it as a reaching task. Here, reaching refers to a fundamental human behaviour with the the intriguing characteristic of having a linear relationship between maximum speed and distance, effectively making the movement time constant.

5. Modelling driver behaviour in run-off-road crashes: Applications in safety system development and safety benefit estimation
Abstract : Run-off-road crashes have been identified as a major concern for automobile safety and several advanced driver assistance systems (ADASs) targeting run-off-road crashes are on the market today. Assessment of ADASs require relevant test scenarios and valid computational models of driver behaviour. READ MORE
