An investigation of truck drivers' behaviour before and during real-world advanced emergency braking system interventions Open
Advanced emergency braking systems (AEBS) aim to address rear-end collisions, which are the most common crash type involving heavy good vehicles. Although previous studies have investigated the safety benefits introduced by AEBS, there is …
In-depth analysis of scenarios and injuries in crashes between cyclists and commercial vehicles in Germany Open
Large vehicles such as buses and heavy goods vehicles (HGVs) pose a serious threat to cyclists and can cause serious injuries. Therefore, it is important to understand current safety issues related to these vehicles, to identify and to dev…

Exploring European Heavy Goods Vehicle Crashes Using a Three-Level Analysis of Crash Data Open
Heavy goods vehicles (HGVs) are involved in 4.5% of police-reported road crashes in Europe and 14.2% of fatal road crashes. Active and passive safety systems can help to prevent crashes or mitigate the consequences but need detailed scenar…

Exploring European Heavy Goods Vehicle Crashes Using a Three-Level Analysis of Crash Data Open
This paper addresses crashes involving heavy goods vehicles (HGV) in Europe focusing on long-haul trucks weighing 16 tons or more (16t+). The identification of the most critical scenarios and their characteristics is based on a three-level…
Making a few talk for the many – Modeling driver behavior using synthetic populations generated from experimental data Open
Understanding driver behavior is the basis for the development of many advanced driver assistance systems, and experimental studies are indispensable tools for constructing appropriate driver models. However, the high cost associated with …
Truck drivers’ behavior in encounters with vulnerable road users at intersections: Results from a test-track experiment Open
Crashes involving cyclists and pedestrians in Europe cause the deaths of about 7600 persons every year. Both cyclists and pedestrians are especially exposed in crashes with motorized vehicles and collisions with trucks can lead to severe i…

An analysis of European crash data and scenario specification for heavy truck safety system development within the AEROFLEX project Open
Heavy goods vehicles (HGVs) are involved in 4.5% of police-reported road crashes in Europe and 14.2% of fatal road crashes. Active and passive safety systems can help to prevent crashes or mitigate the consequences but need detailed scenar…
Towards an Improved Safety Benefit Assessment for Heavy Trucks - Introduction of a framework for the combination of different data sources Open
Although heavy goods vehicles (HGVs) were only involved in 4.4% out of more than 1 million crashes that occurred on European roads in 2017, their share in crashes with fatal outcome was almost three times larger (12%). Advanced Driver Assi…
Dynamic Neuro-Cognitive Imagery (DNITM) Improves Developpé Performance, Kinematics, and Mental Imagery Ability in University-Level Dance Students Open
Dance requires optimal range-of-motion and cognitive abilities. Mental imagery is a recommended, yet under-researched, training method for enhancing both of these. This study investigated the effect of Dynamic Neuro-Cognitive Imagery (DNIT…
Assessment of the PROSPECT safety systems including socio-economic evaluation Open
This report provides a new methodology for safety benefit assessment of real-world benefit of the Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) in terms of saved lives and prevented injuries as well as the resulting monetary benefit for societ…
