A New Stopping Sight Distance Model and Fuzzy Reliability Analysis Comparison

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2022
Aiming at the problem that the existing stopping sight distance model is out of sync with the development of the times, this paper puts forward a new stopping sight distance model considering the fuzziness and randomness of design parameters, and deduces

Empirical modeling of the relationship between decision sight distance and stopping sight distance based on AASHTO [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Transport, 2018
The paper introduces implementation of highways' stopping sight distance (SSD) and decision sight distance (DSD) based on AASHTO modeling assumptions. SSD characterizes the necessary distance for highway vehicles to stop safely in front from an obstacle.

Revision of Calculation of Stopping Sight Distance

open access: yesThe Baltic Journal of Road and Bridge Engineering, 2011
Stopping Sight Distance (SSD) is a critical parameter for roadway geometric design and safety evaluation. It experienced several revisions in AASHTO Green Books (A Policy on Geometric Design of Highways and Streets) since 1940.

A New Model of Stopping Sight Distance of Curve Braking Based on Vehicle Dynamics

open access: yesDiscrete Dynamics in Nature and Society, 2016
Compared with straight-line braking, cornering brake has longer braking distance and poorer stability. Therefore, drivers are more prone to making mistakes. The braking process and the dynamics of vehicles in emergency situations on curves were analyzed.

Evaluation of 3d Coordination to Maximize Available Stopping Sight Distance in Two-Lane Rural Highways

open access: yesThe Baltic Journal of Road and Bridge Engineering, 2014
Sight distance is one of the most important factors of road safety since it allows the driver perceiving, at real time, road characteristics and its surroundings.

Sight distances at unsignalized intersections: a comparison of guidelines and requirements for human drivers and autonomous vehicles [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Transport, 2021
Many traffic accidents are caused by unforeseen and unexpected events in a site that was hidden from the driver's eyes. Road design parameters determining required visibility are based on relationships formulated decades ago.
