Connected and Automated Vehicle Based Intersection Maneuver Assist Systems (CAVIMAS) and Their Impact on Driver Behavior, Acceptance, and Safety
(University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, Transportation Research Institute, 2020-07)
Intersection crashes can be potentially mitigated by leveraging deployments of vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) and vehicle-to- vehicle (V2V) safety management solutions. However, it is equally critical that these deployments ...
On Transportation Equity Implications of Connected and Autonomous Vehicles (CAV) A Review of Methodologies
(University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, Transportation Research Institute, 2020)
This review brings together the bodies of literature on transportation equity analysis, travel behavior forecasting, and impacts of CAVs, with the ultimate objective of highlighting important research needs for measuring ...
Naturalistic Passenger Behavior: Posture and Activities
(University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, Transportation Research Institute, 2020-02)
Video cameras were installed in the passenger cabins of 75 vehicles to monitor the postures and activities of front-seat
passengers. Video frames from a total of 2733 trips were coded for 306 unique front-seat passengers. ...
Enhancing network equilibrium models for capturing emerging shared-use mobility services
(University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, Transportation Research Institute, 2020)
Driven by the development of vehicle connectivity and automation, shared-use mobility services are expected to play a major role in meeting urban mobility needs. However, existing network equilibrium models cannot adequately ...
Development of Driver Posture Prediction and Accommodation Models for Military Vehicles: Fixed-Eye-Point, Out-of-Hatch, and Highly Reclined Driver Configurations
(University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, Transportation Research Institute, 2020-10)
Accurate information on warfighter posture and position is essential for the design of military vehicles for safety
and effectiveness. In prior work, posture measurements from soldiers were used to develop statistical ...
Development of Anthropometric Specifications for the Large- Male Warrior Injury Assessment Manikin (WIAMan)
(UMTRI, 2022-05)
Data from a previous study of soldier posture and body shape were analyzed to develop anthropometric specifications for an anthropomorphic test device (ATD) intended to represent a large-male Soldier for assessments of ...
Development of an Automated Wheelchair Tiedown and Occupant Restraint System
(UMTRI, 2022-05)
This project developed an automated wheelchair tiedown and restraint system (AWTORS) that could be safely and independently used in an automated vehicle (AV) by someone using a wheelchair as vehicle seating. The project ...
Investigation of Potential Design and Performance Criteria for Booster Seats Through Volunteer and Dynamic Testing
(UMTRI, 2020-04)
The purpose of this research was to explore candidate booster performance metrics that have the potential
to identify less effective booster systems, since current FMVSS No. 213 booster performance requirements
can be ...
