D2.8 Analysis of simulation results and identification of future safety-critical traffic interactions
report
The SAFE-UP project aims to proactively address the novel safety challenges of the future mobility systems through the development of tools and innovative safety methods that lead to improvements in road transport safety. Future mobility systems will rely on partially and fully automated vehicles to reduce traffic collisions and casualties by removing causal factors like driver distraction, fatigue, or infractions and by reacting autonomously to emergency situations. On the other hand, they may introduce new collision risk factors or risky behaviours when interacting with other traffic participants.
SAFE-UP’s Work Package 2 has identified existing critical scenarios in Task 2.1, developed new safety metrics in Task 2.2, new agent models for several kinds of road agents in Task 2.3, and integrated all models and metrics into a new traffic simulation environment in Task 2.4. The aim of Task 2.5 is to analyse (and iterate) these simulations to find future critical scenarios. To this end Task 2.5 will run the simulations as designed and analyse the results, performing comparative analysis, and provide a deliverable, D2.8, where the simulation execution and preliminary results will be presented. And an update, D2.13, where the outcome of the analysis will be elaborated. This deliverable is divided as follows: Section 2 will present the simulation environment. Section 2.1 presents the experiment design plan, while the workflow of the traffic simulation tool based on Aimsun Next is described in Section 2.2. Section 3 covers the analysis of preliminary simulation results. Section 3.1 presents the analysis approach developed by TNO, which focuses on car to car interactions using driver profiling. Section 3.2 will elaborate on IKA analysis, focused on pedestrian and bicycle critical situations. Section 3.3 provides an overview of the car to car interaction analysis performed by TUD, based on their probabilistic driving risk field approach. Section 3.4 describes how UNI analyses PTW critical scenarios. Section 3.5 will elaborate on IDIADA analysis, baseline critical situation analysis. Finally, section 4 provides a brief conclusion of the preliminary results. This deliverable presents our initial simulation analysis plans. This work will continue through 2023, and the final results of our work will be presented on the final version of this document “D2.13 Analysis of simulation results and identification of future safety-critical traffic”.
