Infrastructure Sensor-Enabled Vehicle Data Generation Using Multi-Sensor Fusion for Proactive Safety Applications at Work Zone
Infrastructure-based sensing and real-time trajectory generation hold significant promise for improving safety in high-risk roadway segments like work zones, yet practical deployments are hindered by … [Read more...] about Infrastructure Sensor-Enabled Vehicle Data Generation Using Multi-Sensor Fusion for Proactive Safety Applications at Work Zone
Deriving Workload From Driving Behavior and Psycho-Physiology in Work Zones
Due to atypical driving scenarios, work zones may increase driving uncertainty, elevate behavioral deviations and intensify psychological workload, potentially pose risks and even lead to crashes. … [Read more...] about Deriving Workload From Driving Behavior and Psycho-Physiology in Work Zones
Real-Time Driver Alerts to Improve CMV Safety in California Work Zones: A Naturalistic Study
Commercial motor vehicles (CMVs) are disproportionately involved in crashes around work zones. We seek to reduce these crashes via location-based in-cab alerts ahead of work zone activity. It was … [Read more...] about Real-Time Driver Alerts to Improve CMV Safety in California Work Zones: A Naturalistic Study
Impact of Road Work Zones on Traffic Flow and Safety: A VISSIM-Based Analysis of Driving Behavior and Risk Factors
To achieve Vision Zero and eliminate all fatalities and severe injuries in road traffic, it is necessary to improve road safety for both road users and road workers. Accidents and incidents that occur … [Read more...] about Impact of Road Work Zones on Traffic Flow and Safety: A VISSIM-Based Analysis of Driving Behavior and Risk Factors
