The Intersection 2020 project was initiated to develop a test procedure for Automatic Emergency Braking systems in intersection car-to-car scenarios to be transferred to Euro NCAP. The project aims to address current road traffic accidents on European roads and therefore sets a priority of the identification of the most important car-to-car accidents and Use Cases. Taking into account technological and practical limitations, Test Scenarios are derived from the Use Cases in a later stage of the project. This paper presents parts of a larger study and provides an overview of common car-to-vehicle(at least four wheels) collision types at junctions in Europe and specifies seven Accident Scenarios from which the three scenarios “Straight Crossing Paths (SCP)”, “Left Turn Across Path – Opposite Direction Conflict (LTAP/OD)” and “Left Turn Across Path – Lateral Direction (LTAP/LD)” are most important due to their high relevance regarding severe car-to-car accidents. Technical details about crash parameters such as collision and initial speeds are delivered. The analysis work performed is input for the definition and selection of the Use Cases as well as for the project’s benefit estimation. The numbers of accidents and fatalities in accidents at intersections involving a passenger car were shown per intersection type. In both statistics, it was found that accidents at crossroads and T- or staggered junctions are of highest relevance, followed by roundabouts. Focusing on accidents at intersections between one passenger car and another road user shows that around one-third of all accidents and related fatalities could have been assigned to car-to-PTW accidents and one-fifth of all accidents and fatalities to car-to-car accidents. Regarding car-to-car accidents with at least serious injury outcome 38% out of 34,489 car-to-car accidents happened at intersections. These figures correspond to 18% of the fatalities (4,236 fatalities in total). Considering all intersection types, around half of all related accidents happened in urban environments whereas this number decreased to one-third of all fatalities. Further, the proportion of road fatalities per country occurring at intersections varies widely across the EU. Also, there are proportionately more fatalities in daylight or twilight conditions at junctions. Use Cases are supposed to be derived from Accident Scenarios and by adding detailed information for example about the road layout, right-of-way and the vehicle trajectories prior to the collision. Instead of applying cluster algorithms to the accident data, a pragmatic approach was finally preferred to create them. Note: Use Cases serve as an intermediate step between the Accident Scenarios and the Test Scenarios which describe the actual testing conditions. Finally, 74 Use Cases were identified. This large number indicates the complexity of intersection crashes due to the combination of several parameters.
Brückenmanagement
(2001)
Die systematische Erhaltung der Brücken im Zuge der Bundesfernstraßen ist eine wichtige Aufgabe für den Baulastträger Bund und die Straßenbauverwaltungen der Länder. Um künftig Erhaltungsprogramme auf einer einheitlichen Grundlage unter Berücksichtigung gesamtwirtschaftlicher Grundsätze aufstellen zu können, wird durch die Bundesanstalt für Straßenwesen derzeit im Auftrag des Bundesministeriums für Verkehr, Bau- und Wohnungswesen ein umfassendes Bauwerks-Management-System (BMS) konzipiert und realisiert. Das geplante BMS beinhaltet alle Funktionen zur Durchführung des Erhaltungsmanagements. Grundlage ist die Erhebung und Bereitstellung von objektbezogenen Informationen. In Verbindung mit netzbezogenen Daten, Rahmenbedingungen und Restriktionen wird damit die Basis für Analyseprozesse, zum Beispiel Wirtschaftlichkeitsuntersuchungen, Priorisierungen und Bedarfsermittlungen bereitgestellt. Als Ergebnis werden Maßnahmenvorschläge, optimierte Programmplanungen und Angaben zum Finanzbedarf entwickelt. Verfahren und Programmsysteme werden schrittweise ab 2002 bis 2005 den Straßenbauverwaltungen zur Verfügung gestellt.
The first stage of the work has been to collate information on bridge assessment from the participating countries. In the later stages, the aim is to provide guidelines that reflect the current best practices, a methodology that will allow for future development and sufficient flexibility to accommodate variations in national priorities as the process of harmonisation is pursued. The following tasks fall within the scope of the project: (1) a review of current procedures and standards used for bridge assessment in Europe; (2) the development of models for taking into account the bridge specific traffic conditions and material properties; (3) the use of reliability methods based on a probabilistic approach for bridge assessment including the use of measurements for updating the reliability of structural elements; and (4) the provision of recommendations for methods and procedures that can be adopted for the assessment module of the management framework highlighting where further development will be beneficial.
Die vorliegende Studie untersucht die Auswirkung der Ausstattung von Motorrädern mit Anti-Blockier-System (ABS) auf die Fahrsicherheit von Motorrädern. Hierzu wurden Fahrversuche im realen Verkehr und auf abgesperrter Teststrecke durchgeführt. Erfahrene und wenig erfahrene Motorradfahrer absolvierten Testfahrten auf nasser und trockener Fahrbahn mit und ohne ABS-Aktivierung des Motorrades. Bei den Versuchsfahrten kam es zu einigen kritischen Fahrsituationen, bei denen die Versuchspersonen insbesondere zu Beginn des Bremsmanövers von ihrem "normalen" Bremsverhalten abwichen. Bei blockierendem Hinterrad wurde der Bremsdruck vorne und hinten reduziert, was zu einer deutlichen Bremswegverlängerung führte. Bei den Vollbremsungen unter idealen Bedingungen auf abgesperrter Strecke wurden von erfahrenen Fahrern ohne ABS kürzere Bremswege als mit ABS erreicht. Kurvenbremsungen mit ABS-Regelung wurden im mittleren Geschwindigkeits- und Schräglagebereich fahrstabil durchgeführt. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass selbst erfahrene Motorradfahrer Bremsweg in kritischen Situationen verschenken. Geeignete Antiblockiersysteme könnten Motorradfahrern die Angst vor Radblockaden nehmen. Dies dürfte einen erheblichen Beitrag zur Steigerung der aktiven Sicherheit leisten.
The purpose of this paper is to review injuries found in real world lateral collisions and determine the mechanisms responsible for certain kinds of biomechanical failure. During the last years the distribution of deaths among the different types of accidents has changed. Lateral collisions now are the most frequent cause of fatal and other serious injuries. Every third accident is an impact from the side, while every second fatality is the result of a lateral accident. Just a few years ago this value was no higher than 30%. This is probably the result of increasing safety standards for frontal collisions (airbags, seatbelt usage, structural improvements of cars, etc.). Although the number of registered vehicles increased, the total amount of fatalities decreased during the same period. Thus it is now necessary to pay greater attention to the lateral accident situation in order to improve road safety and decrease the number of traffic injuries. Several European organisations had decided to launch the project SID2000, which was funded by the European Commission, with the intention of gathering more knowledge on injuries occurring in lateral accidents and the mechanisms that lead to such injuries. This should enable the group to define the requirements for a new side impact dummy (SID) to be designed. Within the same project the existing TNO-EUROSID 1 was enhanced by another group and the experience gained has now enabled allowed to design a better measuring device for side impacts. The data used for this contribution came from sources from all over Europe and had to be gathered in such a manner that as many accident parameters as possible were taken into account.
Ausgehend vom Blickverhalten beim Betrachten von statischen Konfigurationen werden die Parameter des Blickverhaltens (stimulusbedingte Einflussgrößen, Person des Betrachters) beschrieben. Die visuelle Informationsaufnahme wird als Wechselwirkung zwischen Anforderungen und Umweltmerkmalen verstanden. Aus der Fülle der Ergebnisse, die auch die Rolle der Fahrpraxis, die Trainierbarkeit des Blickverhaltens sowie den Zustand des Fahrzeuglenkers (Alkohol, Schlafmangel, Kohlenmonoxyd) berücksichtigen wie auch auf Fahrzeugmerkmale eingehen, werden Erkenntnisse für den alltäglichen Verkehr gezogen.
In the EC FP6 Integrated Project Advanced Protection Systems, APROSYS, the first WorldSID small female prototype was developed and evaluated by BASt, FTSS, INRETS, TRL and UPM-INSIA during 2006 and 2007. Results were presented at the ESV 2007 conference (Been et al., 2007). With the prototype dummy scoring a biofidelity rating higher than 6.7 out of 10 according to ISO/TR9790, the results were very promising. Also opportunities for further development were identified by the evaluation group. A revised prototype, Revision1, was subsequently developed in the 2007-2008 period to address comments from the evaluation group. The Revision1 dummy includes changes in the half arms and the suit (anthropometry and arm biomechanics), the thorax and abdomen ribs and sternum (rib durability), the abdomen/lumbar area and the lower legs (mass distribution). Also a two-dimensional chest deflection measurement system was developed to measure deflection in both lateral and anterior-posterior direction to improve oblique thorax loading sensitivity. Two Revision1 prototype dummies have now been evaluated by FTSS, TRL, UPM-INSIA and BASt. The updated prototype dummies were subjected to an extensive matrix of biomechanical tests, such as full body pendulum tests and lateral sled impact tests as specified by Wayne State University, Heidelberg University and Medical College of Wisconsin. The results indicated a significant improvement of dummy biofidelity. The overall dummy biofidelity in the ISO rating system has significantly improved from 6.7 to 7.6 on a scale between 0-10. The small female WorldSID has now obtained the same biofidelity rating as the WorldSID mid size male dummy. Also repeatability improved with respect to the prototype. In conclusion the recommended updates were all executed and all successfully contributed in achieving improved performance of the dummy.
The frontal crash is still an important contributor to deaths and serious injured resulting from road accidents in Europe. As the Hybrid-III dummy used in crash tests is over two decades old, the European Enhanced Vehicle-safety Committee is studying the potential for a new test device. Key is the availability of a well-defined set of requirements that identifies the minimum level of biofidelity required for an advanced frontal dummy. In this paper, a complete set of frontal impact biofidelity requirements, consisting of references , description of test conditions and corridors, is presented.
Regarding to the German road traffic licensing regulations it is mandatory to have a light system using a bicycle in public traffic. All attached components must be approved. The admission requires additional restrictions such as a dynamo as energy source with a nominal voltage of 6 V. Batteries are only allowed in addition to this. To adopt the German bicycle regulation to the state of art of an energy efficient lighting, additional power sources such as a battery respectively rechargeable batterie should be evaluated. The project will propose amendments for German Road Traffic Regulations and technical requirements.
