In this paper car driving is considered at the level of human tracking and maneuvering in the context of other traffic. A model analysis revealed the most salient features determining driving performance and safety. Learning car driving is modelled based on a system theoretical approach and based on a neural network approach. The aim of this research is to assess the relative merit of both appr...
The paper shows that in an artificial society lawlike rules emerge “as a result of individual action but without being designed by any individual” agents (Hayek, 1944, p. 288) and discusses earlier literature on the topic. The first example that this paper uses is an artificial society of car drivers moving between their homes and their working places on streets with two lanes crossing each oth...
Car design incorporates many engineering sciences where today, have led to the use of advanced technologies in automobiles to provide more satisfaction and comfort for the passengers, increase the quality of vehicles, efficiency and more pleasure than previous cars. These issues can be categorized into two groups in general. In the first group, the effects and performance of components involved...
An analysis of the attitudes of 600 parents towards children's car-restraints together with their use is presented. Only 47% of infants under 9 months of age and 26% of children under 15 years of age were always appropriately restrained. Children under 4 were more likely to be restrained than older children and previous involvement in a road-traffic accident led to increased use of restraint.
Measuring positions, velocities and accelerations/decelerations of individual vehicles in congested traffic with standard traffic monitoring equipment, such as inductive loops, are not feasible. The behavior of drivers in the different traffic situations, as re-quired for microscopic traffic flow models, is still not sufficiently known. Remote sensing and computer vision technology are recently...
A combined hydraulic engine mount and buffer is proposed in this study for use in the mid-priced vehicle. In some vehicle design projects, an engine is selected to use in a new car design. To achieve the desired vibration conditions, the mount can be redesigned with exorbitant costs and long-term research. The idea of using a buffer in the combination of the conventional engine mount is to sugg...
Private car use is one of the major contributors to pollution in industrialised countries. It is therefore important to understand the factors that determine the demand for car use. In explaining the variability in car use, it is important to take into account household demographic characteristics and local and regional differences in infrastructure, in addition to the economic variables common...
Germany and the U.S. have among the highest motorization rates in the world. Yet Americans make a 40% higher share of their trips by car and annually drive twice as many kilometers per capita as Germans. Automobile use is linked to unsustainable trends such as climate change, oil dependence, traffic fatalities, congestion, and obesity. International differences in car use can be attributed to s...
Driving Towards Car-Independent Neighborhoods in Europe: A Typology and Systematic Literature Review
Car-independent neighborhoods can be seen as a planning strategy for overcoming car dependency and achieving urban sustainability goals. This implies structural psychological independency of people, which manifests itself into positive attitudes perceptions towards sustainable mobility, acceptance corresponding measures, shift from private cars to active transport, public sharing modes. Despite...
Public transport is often perceived to be a poor alternative for car use. This paper describes who may be open to use public transport more often, and how people might be persuaded to use it. A computerised questionnaire study was conducted among 1,803 Dutch respondents in May 2001. Results revealed that especially fervent car users disliked public transport. For them, the car outperformed publ...
