Determining Passing Sight Distance on Upgraded Road Sections over Single and Platooned Heavy Military Vehicles

open access: yesInfrastructures
Although truck platooning enhances transportation efficiency, reduces fuel consumption, and lowers freight transport costs, it can also create limited overtaking opportunities, potentially leading to risky overtaking maneuvers. The present study examines

The grouping of heavy goods vehicles phenomenon. A case study based on Weigh-in-Motion data on a French highway

open access: yesTransportation Engineering
This study deals with the manual grouping phenomenon of heavy vehicles (over 3.5 tons), which refers to vehicles following a vehicle of the same group (rigid box truck, bobtail truck…) in the same lane with time gaps less than or equal to 2 s and which ...

An Agent-based Simulation Model for Truck Platoon Matching

open access: yesProcedia Computer Science, 2019
This paper presents a flexible agent-based simulation (ABS) model to serve as a matchmaking system for trucks such that they can form a platoon. A platoon is a formation of trucks which drive closely behind each other in a (semi)autonomous fashion. We focus on an agent-based system which seeks platoon candidates in the proximity of a truck and tries to
