Abstract:

In truck platooning, the leading vehicle is driven manually, and the following vehicles run by autonomous driving, with the short inter-vehicle distance between trucks. To successfully perform platooning in various situations, each truck must maintain dynamic stability, and furthermore, the whole system must maintain string stability. Due to the short front-view range, however, the following vehicles’ path planning capabilities become significantly impaired. In addition, in platooning with articulated cargo trucks, the off-tracking phenomenon occurring on a curved road makes it hard for the fo

Abstract:

Collision risk identification and prediction is an effective means to prevent truck accidents. However, most existing studies focus only on highways, not on two-lane rural highways. To predict truck collision probabilities and identify high-risk scenes on two-lane rural highways, this study first calculated time to collision and post-encroachment time using high-precision trajectory data and combined them with extreme value theory to predict the truck collision probability. Subsequently, a traffic feature parameter system was constructed with the driving behavior risk parameter. Furthermore, m

In the trucking industry, truck drivers’ duties include not only driving trucks but also non-driving labor. However, non-driving work is not necessarily paid.

Using the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health Long-Haul Truck Driver survey, the study finds that remunerating drivers for non-driving duties decreases drivers’ work hours.

Abstract:

Truck rollover is a problem that seriously endangers the safety of human life. Under special conditions, when the driver takes a sharp turn, the truck is most prone to rollover. Speed seriously affects the driving stability of the truck in a sharp turn, but the calculation of the safe speed is not accurate enough at present. The aim of this paper is to develop a more accurate safe speed calculation method to avoid the truck rollover in a sharp turn. Firstly, the calculation formula of the rollover threshold was derived based on a theoretical model, then, the simulation tests were carried out.

Abstract:

Hauling of wood-based forest products is a complex problem that requires evaluation of many alternative routes. Forest transportation has been generally done by using logging trucks with high carrying capacity. Logging truck driving is one of the dangerous occupations in forestry, particularly in Turkey, where forest lands are mostly located in mountainous regions with steep slopes. The safety risk of truck driving mainly depends on the road standards and conditions. The majority of the forest roads in Turkey have low standards that limit the maneuverability of logging trucks.

The authors analyze the potential effects of automation on the jobs of truck drivers and conclude that media accounts predicting the imminent loss of millions of truck-driving jobs are overstated.

Second, truck drivers do more than drive, and these non-driving tasks will continue to be in demand.

Abstract:

Commercial large truck crashes are more likely to involve fatalities and significant costs than passenger vehicle crashes are. To reduce fatigue-related crashes of large trucks caused by drivers' irregular work schedules, FMCSA has enforced hours-of-service rules to regulate the activities of drivers of commercial large trucks. The complex influence of drivers' multiday driving activity patterns on crash risk was examined with data collected from two national truckload carriers. A machine learning approach, k-means clustering, was used to classify large truck drivers into 10 clusters according

Abstract:

Research was done on the crosswind aerodynamic loads of three different front shape heavy-duty trucks by the method of numerical simulation. According to the research, the side force and the rolling moment of truck change slightly, but the drag and yawing moment changes dramatically when running in strong crosswind with different front shapes. The conclusions were drawn from discussion that the long head heavy-duty truck has the least yawing moment among the studied trucks so it has the best driving stability correspondingly.

Abstract With the introduction of advanced driving assistance systems managing longitudinal and lateral control, conditional automated driving is seemingly in near future of series vehicles. While take-over behavior in the passenger car context has been investigated intensively in recent years, publications on semi-trucks with professional drivers are sparse. The effects influencing expert drivers during take-overs in this context lack thorough investigation and are required to design systems that facilitate safe take-overs. While multiple findings seem to cohere in passenger cars and semi-tru

Abstract:

In developing countries, heavy-duty trucks play an important role in transportation for infrastructure construction. However, frequent truck accidents cause great losses. Previous studies have mainly focused on passenger drivers; to date, little has been done to assess the driving behavior of heavy truck drivers. The overall objective of this study is to classify driving styles at intersections, analyze the impacts of differing types of traffic control at intersections on driving styles, and identify potentially risky intersections. We selected 11 heavy-duty truck drivers and collected kinemat

The construction of intelligent logistics by intelligent wireless sensing is a modern trend. Hence, this study uses the multistate flow network (MFN) to explore the actual environment of logistics delivery and to consider the different types of transportation routes available for logistics trucks in today’s practical environment, which have been neglected in previous studies. Two road types, namely highways and slow roads, with different speed limits are explored. The speed of the truck is fast on the highway, so the completion time of the single delivery is, of course, fast. However, it is al

This project was motivated by the need to accelerate the learning of basic vehicle control skills to allow more time for safety-critical skills. The first studies focused on gearshifting and the second on backing maneuvers. All studies measured the transfer of driving skills learned in the truck simulator to the real truck.

Different from the previous evaluation studies of drivers’ driving behavior in open-pit mines, which mainly took safety driving behavior index as a factor variable, this paper puts forward a comprehensive evaluation method of driving behavior of mining truck drivers, which takes both safety driving and

Abstract:

What factors do truck drivers consider as the primary causes of accidents? Study 1 investigated whether there were differences in risk perception among drivers of freight and passenger cars regarding various accident causes. Truck drivers perceived lower accident risks due to external factors during longer distances compared to shorter distances. Conversely, passenger car drivers felt lower risks at closer distances than at longer ones. This discrepancy can be attributed to variations in risk perception for the same accident factor, influenced by psychological fluency and the fit of regulatory
