Abstract: This paper is concerned with developing a method to measure a driver’s muscle activation strategy during driving, to enable validation of a mathematical model. Electromyography (EMG) was successfully ...

Abstract: A mathematical driver model is introduced in order to explain the driver steering behavior observed during successive double lane-change maneuvers. The model consists of a linear quadratic regulator ...

Abstract: The effects of heavy vehicles with leaf-spring and air-spring suspensions on the dynamic response of short-span highway bridges are considered in this paper. The dynamic bridge responses are calculated by modeling the ...
