Lateral support systems in vehicles have a high potential for reduction of lane departure crashes. To profit from their full potential, such should function properly adverse conditions. Literature indicates that accuracy varies between day and night-time. However, detailed quantifications the systems’ performance these conditions are rare. The aim this study is to investigate differences detect...

One of the challenges of lane departure warning (LDW) systems is to differentiate between normal lane keeping behavior and lane change events in which drivers simply do not use the lane change indicator. Lane keeping behavior differs between drivers and often between driving scenarios, therefore a static threshold of predicting steering maneuver is not an ideal solution. The objective of the cu...

We present a velocity and strain rate model for the northern Walker Lane derived from a compilation of geodetic velocities and corrected for transient effects owing to historic earthquakes on the Central Nevada seismic belt. We fi nd that from 37°N to 40°N, the Walker Lane is characterized by an ~100-km-wide zone with near-constant strain rates associated with ~10 mm yr total motion across the ...

In recent years, the construction of lane-level road maps has received extensive attention from industry and academia. It been widely studied because this kind map provides foundation for much research, such as high-precision navigation, driving behavior analysis, traffic analysis. Trajectory-based crowd-mapping is an emerging approach to construction. However, major problem that existing metho...

The characterization of human drivers’ performance is of great significance for highway design, driver state monitoring, and the development of automotive active safety systems. Many earlier studies are restricted by experimental scope, the number and diversity of human subjects, and the accuracy and extent of measured variables. In this work, driver lateral control performance on limited-acces...
