The Driver-car

Using the Reaction Delay as the Driver Effects in the Development of Car-Following Models

Car-following models, as the most popular microscopic traffic flow modeling, is increasingly being used by transportation experts to evaluate new Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) applications. A number of factors including individual differences of age, gender, and risk-taking behavior, have been found to influence car-following behavior. This paper presents a novel idea to calculate ...

Car-driver cooperation in future vehicles

The two main research branches in intelligent vehicles field are Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) [1] and autonomous driving [2]. ADAS generally work on predefined enviroment and limited scenarios such as highway driving, low speed driving, night driving etc. In such situations this systems have sufficiently high performance and the main features that allow their large diffusion and th...

Automatic car steering control bridges over the driver reaction time

Abstract: A car driver needs at least five hundred milliseconds before he can react to unexpected yaw motions. During this time the uncontrolled car may produce a dangerous yaw rate and sideslip angle. Automatic steering control for disturbance rejection is designed such that it bridges over the driver reaction time, but returns the full steering authority to the driver thereafter. The solution...
