The term test procedure refers to a method that describes how a system has to be tested to identify and assess specific behavior or properties by experiments. This also includes the specification of required tools, equipment, boundary conditions, and evaluation methods. Test procedures are an essential tool to check whether desired product properties are present, which of course also applies to the development of driver assistance systems. In addition to development and release testing that mainly is performed by the vehicle or system manufacturer, there are tests with the purpose of an independent product testing that are conducted by external test organizations. These tests are needed for vehicle type approval (for admission to a specific market), in the context of applying the standard for functional safety (in both cases mainly executed by technical services (being accredited as certification laboratory)) or for customer information purposes (by a test institute for consumer protection). The focus of this chapter is these "external" test methods. After a taxonomy of test procedures, the differences between legislation (type approval) and consumer testing are highlighted. Typical tests and the associated test setup, tools, and assessment criteria are discussed, and an outlook toward testing in the near and mid-future is given.
Im Projekt ESIMAS - Echtzeit-Sicherheits-Management-System für Straßentunnel - wurde der Prototyp für ein Expertensystem zur Überwachung von Straßentunneln unter Einbezug innovativer Detektionssysteme entwickelt. Das Ziel von ESIMAS ist die Bereitstellung eines ganzheitlichen modularen Ansatzes zur Überwachung von Straßentunneln, welcher sowohl die präventive Ereignisvermeidung, die schnelle Ereigniserkennung als auch die Ereignisbewältigung verbessern soll. Dieser Ansatz geht deutlich über die aktuellen Möglichkeiten der Tunnelsteuerung und übergeordneten Leitsysteme hinaus. Die zukünftige Unterstützung der Überwachung von Tunnelanlagen mit ESIMAS führt zu einem maßgeblichen Sicherheitsgewinn für den Verkehrsteilnehmer, da durch die umfangreichere und genauere Erfassung und Auswertung von Informationen die Verantwortlichen in den Tunnelleitzentralen besser und schneller reagieren können.
The term driver assistance systems in the chapter title shall be understood to include vehicle automation. This chapter starts with a homogeneous and consistent classification and nomenclature of all kinds of driver assistance systems known and under discussion today (including vehicle automation). It thereby builds upon familiar classification schemes by the German Federal Highway Research Institute (BASt) and the standardization body SAE international. Detailed evaluation of the German legal situation for driver assistance systems and vehicle automation is provided in the following Sect. 2. In Sect. 3, an overview is given on the legal system in the US to reveal aspects relevant for vehicle automation. This is intended as initial information for those not acquainted to the US legal system which has been the first to regulate automation in several federal states. Finally, in Sect. 4, the current rating scheme of the European New Car Assessment Programme (EuroNCAP) is presented in comparison to legal instruments. The model of a consumer protection based approach proves to be a flexible instrument with great advantages in promoting new technologies. Technical vehicle regulations on the other hand rule minimum requirements. Both approaches are needed to achieve maximum vehicle safety.
Automated driving will provide many kinds of benefits - some direct and some indirect. The benefits originate at the individual level, from changes in the behaviour of drivers and travellers with regard to driving and mobility, ending up with benefits at the social level via changes in the whole transport system and society, where many of the current planning and operations paradigms are likely to be transformed by automated driving. There may also be disbenefits, particularly at a social level, for example in intensity of travel which could result in additional congestion and increased use of natural resources. There may also be unintended consequences. For example, we do not know the impacts on public transport: driverless vehicles could provide a means to a lower cost service provision, but the availability of automated cars could lead to more car travel at the expense of collective transport.
Motorcycling is a fascinating kind of transportation. While the riders' direct exposure to the environment and the unique driving dynamics are essential to this fascination, they both cause a risk potential which is several times higher than when driving a car. This chapter gives a detailed introduction to the fundamentals of motorcycle dynamics and shows how its peculiarities and limitations place high demands on the layout of dynamics control systems, especially when cornering. The basic principles of dynamic stabilization and directional control are addressed along with four characteristic modes of instability (capsize, wobble, weave, and kickback). Special attention is given to the challenges of braking (brake force distribution, dynamic over-braking, kinematic instability, and brake steer torque induced righting behavior). It is explained how these challenges are addressed by state-of-the-art brake, traction, and suspension control systems in terms of system layout and principles of function. It is illustrated how the integration of additional sensors " essentially roll angle assessment " enhances the cornering performance in all three categories, fostering a trend to higher system integration levels. An outlook on potential future control systems shows exemplarily how the undesired righting behavior when braking in curves can be controlled, e.g., by means of a so-called brake steer torque avoidance mechanism (BSTAM), forming the basis for predictive brake assist (PBA) or even autonomous emergency braking (AEB). Finally, the very limited potential of brake and chassis control to stabilize yaw and roll motion during unbraked cornering accidents is regarded, closing with a promising glance at roll stabilization through a pair of gimbaled gyroscopes.
Die Straßenverkehrsinfrastruktur ist durch steigende Belastungen und zunehmende Durchschnittsalter mittlerweile vielfach am Rande der Leistungsfähigkeit angelangt. In Zukunft werden Baumaßnahmen in erheblichem Umfang durchzuführen sein. Damit diese Erhaltungsmaßnahmen technisch und wirtschaftlich optimal durchgeführt werden können, ist es notwendig, frühzeitig und umfassend über den aktuellen Zustand, vor allem der Brücken, informiert zu sein. Hierfür ist es notwendig, den Zustand dieser zu erfassen, neue innovative Techniken zur Unterstützung der Bauwerksprüfung nach DIN 1076 sollen hinsichtlich ihrer Eignung überprüft werden. Unbemannte Fluggeräte bzw. UAS (Unmanned Aerial System) bieten vielfältige Möglichkeiten zur Bilderfassung und können als unterstützendes technisches Hilfsmittel bei der Bauwerksprüfung zum Einsatz kommen. Im Rahmen eines Forschungsprojekts wurden drei Brücken mithilfe von UAS beflogen, wodurch Schäden identifiziert werden konnten. Insbesondere die Möglichkeit zur Befliegung schwer zugänglicher Stellen, Zeitersparnis während einer Prüfung und die automatisierte Schadenserkennung machen diese Technologie für die Brückenprüfung interessant. Durch die gezielte Anwendung der UASâ€Technologie kann eine Reduzierung der Nutzungseinschränkung des Bauwerks verbunden mit einer Qualitätssteigerung der Ergebnisse erreicht werden.
