  2. 16. Driver modeling: Data collection, model analysis, and optimization

    Author : Ola Benderius; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; driving simulator; driver modeling; stochastic optimization; simulation software; genetic algorithm;

    Abstract : This thesis concerns aspects of driver modeling, with an emphasis on critical near-crash scenarios, involving time spans of around 10 s of driving. Here,driver modeling has been studied using both computer simulations and experiments carried out in a high-fidelity driving simulator. READ MORE

  4. 17. Unsteady aerodynamic effects on the driving stability of passenger vehicles

    Author : Adam Brandt; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; aerodynamics; wake dynamics; high speed; Vehicle dynamics; driving stability; crosswinds;

    Abstract : The passenger car is a vital part of modern society, giving people the freedom of flexible travel. As technology advances, customers increase their demand for future products. The automotive industry must therefore adapt to society's requirements for energy-efficient travel, where developing low-drag vehicles is key. READ MORE

  5. 18. Keeping Eye and Mind on the Road

    Author : Trent Victor; Claes von Hofsten; John Wann; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Psychology; Vision; Eye-movements; Driving; Attention; Distraction; Ventral stream; Dorsal stream; Road safety; Traffic crashes; Evaluation methodology; Psykologi; Psychology; Psykologi;

    Abstract : This thesis is devoted to understanding and counteracting the primary contributing factor in traffic crashes: inattention. Foremost, it demonstrates the fundamental importance of proactive gaze in the road centre area for action guidance in driving. READ MORE

  6. 19. Subjective perception and prediction model of vehicle stability under aerodynamic excitations

    Author : Arun Kumar; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; human-vehicle interaction; prediction model; drivability; unsteady aerodynamics; Driving simulator; driver perception.; vehicle stability;

    Abstract : The current automotive era is moving towards electrified vehicle propulsion. As a result, an energy efficient vehicle design becomes one of the top priorities. From an aerodynamics point of view, the vehicle should be more streamlined for minimal aerodynamic drag. READ MORE

  7. 20. Speed characteristics of urban streets based on driver behaviour studies and simulation

    Author : Karin F. M. Aronsson; Karl-Lennart Bång; Bengt Holmberg; KTH; []
    Keywords : Speed; Characteristics; Urban area; Road network; Street; Traffic; Driver; Side-friction element; Driving simulator; Simulation; Measurement; Behaviour; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : The objective of the study was to gain in-depth knowledge of speed relationships for urban streets. The speed characteristics were examined using a number of methods for data collection. READ MORE
