Lower Extremity and Brake Pedal Interaction in Frontal Collisions: Computer Simulation

SAE Technical Paper Series, 1998
<div class="htmlview paragraph">An Articulated Total Body frontal crash simulation was created with the dummy's right foot placed on the brake pedal. This study examined how interaction of the driver's foot with the brake pedal influenced the behavior of the lower extremities in frontal collisions.

The Occurrence of Accelerator and Brake Pedal Actuation Errors during Simulated Driving

Human Factors: The Journal of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society, 1988
Observations were made of subjects' foot movements while they drove an automobile simulator modified to represent the pedal, floor, and seating geometries of four actual automobiles. The type and frequency of pedal actuation errors that occurred were documented and recorded. The results indicate that a wide variety of pedal errors occur and that their

One-pedal or two-pedal: Does the regenerative braking system improve driving safety?

Accident Analysis and Prevention
Electric vehicles equipped with regenerative braking systems provide drivers a new driving mode, the one-pedal mode, which enables drivers to accelerate and decelerate with the throttle alone.
