Potential benefits of an adaptive forward collision warning system [PDF]
, 2008 Forward collision warning (FCW) systems can reduce rear-end vehicle collisions. However, if the presentation of warnings is perceived as mistimed, trust in the system is diminished and drivers become less likely to respond appropriately.

A destination-preserving model for simulating Wardrop equilibria in traffic flow on networks [PDF]
, 2015 In this paper we propose a LWR-like model for traffic flow on networks which allows one to track several groups of drivers, each of them being characterized only by their destination in the network.

Global variations and drivers of nitrous oxide emissions from forests and grasslands
Frontiers in Soil Science, 2022 Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions are highly variable due to the complex interaction of climatic and ecological factors. Here, we obtained in-situ annual N2O emission flux data from almost 180 peer-papers to evaluate the dominant drivers of N2O emissions ...

Theory, Culture & Society, 2004 The car has become ubiquitous in late modern society and has become the leading object in the ordinary social relations of mobility. Despite its centrality to the culture and material form of modern societies, the relationship between the car and human beings has remained largely unexplored by sociology. This article argues that cars are combined with

Driver-to-driver communication on the highway : what drivers want [PDF]
, 2014 Drivers need to coordinate with each other to share the road infrastructure. The social relationship between drivers also influences the driving behavior. With everywhere available connectivity and the broad penetration of social network services, the relationship between drivers on the road may gain more transparency, enabling social information to ...
