Can automated driving prevent crashes with distracted Pedestrians? An exploration of motion planning at unsignalized Mid-block crosswalks
Hong, Zhu; Han, Tianyang; Alhajyaseen, Wael K.M.; Iryo-Asano, Miho; Nakamura, Hideki ( Elsevier , 2022 , Article)Pedestrian distraction may provoke severe difficulties in automated vehicle (AV) control, which may significantly affect the safety performance of AVs, especially at unsignalized mid-block crosswalks (UMCs). However, there ... -
Driving simulation sickness and the sense of presence: Correlation and contributing factors
Almallah, Mustafa; Hussain, Qinaat; Reinolsmann, Nora; Alhajyaseen, Wael K.M. ( Elsevier Ltd , 2021 , Article)Driving simulators are useful and effective tools for conducting studies in the field of traffic safety.
