Analysis of Disengagements in Semi-Autonomous Vehicles: Drivers’ Takeover Performance and Operational Implications [PDF]

, 2019
This report analyzes the reactions of human drivers placed in simulated Autonomous Technology disengagement scenarios. The study was executed in a human-in-the-loop setting, within a high-fidelity integrated car simulator capable of handling both manual ...

Driven by risk: Understanding reference‐dependent preferences using simulated auto racing

Journal of Risk and Insurance, EarlyView.
Abstract Using data from over 56,000 simulated auto races worldwide, we analyze risk‐taking at the margins, consistent with reference‐dependent preferences. We show that participants' risk‐taking changes when a desired intermittent outcome is presented, sometimes at the expense of a more favorable expected end state.

Influence of Chronotype on Cycling Performance in Simulated 20‐km Time Trials—A Pilot Study

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
Evening‐type athletes show improved cycling performance later in the day, whilst morning types peak earlier. These differences appear linked to variations in mental readiness and sleepiness, highlighting the importance of considering chronotype in performance planning.

Impact of heat exposure during immobilization‐induced de‐training and re‐training on aerobic capacity and haemoglobin mass

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The aim of this work was to assess the effect of heat exposure on cardiorespiratory and haematological responses during de‐training and re‐training. Nineteen men (33.8 ± 2.7 years; 182 ± 5.7 cm, 84.4 ± 9.3 kg) completed 4 weeks of pre‐training followed by heat exposure (HEAT; n = 9) or control (CON; n = 10).

Are You Used To It Yet? Braking Performance and Adaptation in a Fixed-base Driving Simulator. [PDF]

, 2003
During braking-to-stop manoeuvres in a fixed-base driving simulator, the paucity of visual and vestibular cues can lead to driver misperception and produce different patterns of braking response between real and simulated driving.

Performance, cardioventilatory and perceptual responses to perceived opponent ability during head‐to‐head cycling competition

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract We aimed to investigate whether cycling competition influences performance and pacing compared to an individual time trial. The second aim was to determine whether performance is further influenced by deceptive or accurate augmented feedback, delivered as an opponent riding at 2% higher power outputs than a previous competitive time trial ...

Model Predictive Control with Powertrain Delay Consideration for Longitudinal Speed Tracking of Autonomous Electric Vehicles

World Electric Vehicle Journal
Accurate longitudinal control is crucial in autonomous driving, but inherent delays and lag in electric vehicle powertrains hinder precise control. This paper presents a two-stage design for a longitudinal speed controller to enhance speed tracking ...
