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.
This study aimed to better understand nitrate transport in the soil system in a part of the state of North Rhine-Westphalia, in Germany, and to aid in the development of groundwater protection plans. An advection-diffusion (AD) cell was used in a miscible displacement experiment setup to characterize nitrate transport in 12 different soil samples from the study area. The three nitrate sorption isotherms were tested to define the exact nitrate interaction with the soil matrix. Soils varied in their properties which in its turn explain the variations in nitrate transport rates. Soil texture and organic matter content showed to have the most important effect on nitrate recovery and retardation. The miscible displacement experiment indicated a decrease in retardation by increasing sand fraction, and an increase in retardation by increasing soil organic matter content. Soil samples with high sand fractions (up to 94 %) exhibited low nitrate sorption capacity of less than 10 %, while soils with high organic matter content showed higher sorption of about 30 %. Based on parameterization for nitrate transport equation, the pore water velocity for both sandy and loamy soils were significantly different (P < 0.001). Pore water velocity in sandy soil (about 4 x 10 high 3 m/s) was about 100 to 1000 larger than in loamy soils (8.7 x 10 high 5 m/s). On the other hand, the reduction in nitrate transport in soils associated with high organic matter was due to fine pore pathways clogged by fine organic colloids. It is expected that the existing micro-phobicity increased the nitrate recovery from 9 to 32 % resulting in maximum diffusion rates of about 3.5 x 10 high 5 m/s2 in sandy soils (sample number CS-04) and about 1.4 x 10 high 7 m/s2 in silt loam soils (sample number FS-02).
Intelligent transportation systems have a high potential to optimise traffic flow, to increase road traffic safety and to reduce environmental pollution. Real Time Traffic Information (RTTI) systems help to achieve these targets. Beside verbal radio announcements the most used RTTI service is the Traffic Message Channel (TMC) as a part of the Radio Data System (RDS). TMC messages support drivers in their choice of efficient routes or prepare them to cope with situations on the route ahead. The main focus of the paper is on the quality of TMC messages in Germany. After a brief overview of RTTI stakeholders in Germany and their role in the German public traffic information chain the following literature analysis summarizes the state-of-the-art on traffic information quality. Then the paper gives an overview about methodology and first results of an ongoing project on traffic information quality that has been initiated by the Bundesanstalt für Straßenwesen (BASt, German Federal Highway Research Institute) in 2008. The paper describes a concept how to check all processing iterations of the traffic information chain and occurring failures. A cause-effect-analysis forms the basis of this concept to get an idea which reasons (= process) lead to which measurable effect (= quality indicator). The paper demonstrates the principle with the pre-process of the Location Code List (LCL), which is the major basis for message coding since the LCL describes all locations that can be named in a TMC message.
Neue Bezeichnungen bei der Klassifizierung von Reflexfolien zur Verwendung für Verkehrszeichen
(2010)
Mit Einführung der Europäischen Norm DIN EN 12899 „Ortsfeste vertikale Straßenverkehrszeichen“ müssen alle entsprechenden nationalen Normen an diese Norm angepasst werden. Aus diesem Grund ist die Norm DIN 67520 „Retroreflektierende Materialien zur Verkehrssicherung – Lichttechnische Mindestanforderungen an Reflexstoffe“ überarbeitet worden. Dies hat zur Folge, dass die bisherige Klassifizierung von Reflexfolien zur Verwendung für Verkehrszeichen nach Bauarten durch eine Klassifizierung nach rein lichttechnischen Eigenschaften (Retroreflexions-Klasse) ersetzt werden muss.
Das ivg.Produktzertifikat
(2010)
Durch die Einführung der Europäischen Produktnormen DIN EN 13249 ff im Jahr 2002 entfiel die Prüfung der materiellen Eigenschaften von Geokunststoffen, die im Straßenbau zum Einsatz kommen. Als qualitätssichernde Maßnahme wurde die „Empfehlung für die Durchführung der Überwachung und Zertifizierung von Geotextilien, geotextilverwandten Produkten und Dichtungsbahnen, zugelassen nach dem europäischen Konformitätsverfahren System 2+“ vom Industrieverband Geokunststoffe im Einvernehmen mit der Bundesanstalt für Straßenwesen, dem Ausschuss Geokunststoffe der Forschungsgesellschaft für Straßen- und Verkehrswesen und den ÜZ-Stellen erarbeitet. Die Empfehlungen werden im Beitrag erläutert.
Berücksichtigung Sonstiger Anlagenteile an Bundesfernstraßen im Rahmen des Erhaltungsmanagements
(2010)
Das Bundesfernstraßennetz umfasst derzeit mehr als 51.000 km, dessen Bruttoanlagevermögen mit ca. 187,2 Mrd. EUR beziffert wird. Die Bedeutung des Managements der Erhaltung dieses Netzes sowie das hierfür erforderliche Finanzvolumen werden zukünftig steigen. Für den Bereich der Fahrbahnen und der Bauwerke werden entsprechende Instrumente vorgehalten. Vor dem Hintergrund der zunehmenden Ausstattung der Straßen mit Sonstigen Anlagenteilen stellt sich die Frage, ob hierfür ein entsprechendes Instrumentarium erforderlich ist.
Die Bundesanstalt für Straßenwesen ermittelt jährlich auf der Grundlage eines Berechnungsmodells die Kosten, die durch Straßenverkehrsunfälle entstehen. Um den Veränderungen der wirtschaftlichen Eingangsparameter und der Entwicklung des Wissensstands zur Bewertung von Unfallschäden gerecht zu werden, wurde dieses Modell im Rahmen eines Forschungsprojektes in Bezug auf das Jahr 2005 überarbeitet und fortgeschrieben (siehe auch ITRD D365799). Demnach ergeben sich für das Jahr 2008 volkswirtschaftliche Kosten in Höhe von 31 Milliarden Euro durch Personen- und Sachschäden infolge von Straßenverkehrsunfällen in Deutschland. Gegenüber dem Vorjahr sind die Unfallkosten damit um circa 3 Prozent (= 970 Millionen Euro) gesunken.
