Research on Operating Speed Based on Driver and Vehicle Response

Abstract:

For the sake of researching the changes of operating speed when road condition alters, a calibrated model of operating speed was submitted. The model is based on the existed operating speed model fitting to experiment data, complemented and revised by taking vehicle dynamics and driver behaviors in to consideration. The driver model is divided in two parts: decision-making and manipulation. Decision-making contains the limitation of current road condition and forward road condition; manipulation indicates how driver control the throttle and brake to make the vehicle acceleration reaches desired acceleration. Simulation analysis and experimental results show that the model can regenerate how vehicle speed changes according to road condition alters, at the same time demonstrate driver’s manipulation on throttle and brake.
