for the eighth time found themselves at the invitation of ifz on 4 and 5 October 2010 over 150 participants from around the world in Cologne for a scientific exchange.
What is the mechanic in the future? What systems can be driving safety, increase environmental friendliness and convenience of cars even further? And what role does the research? Questions, give the the two days experts from around the world answers and new insights were able to present technologies and research methods.
seat belt, airbag and Co ...
thus present example, the TU-Berlin in your concept study to design a new security concept for collisions between cars and motorcycles, the principles of passive vehicle safety from cars range have been adapted. The protection for the motorcyclist is here is that, in the event of a collision, the collision of the motorcycle driver to the car mainly prevented by a Beckengurtsystem and a supportive airbag for the upper body. Another concept, this time from the home Dainese, regulates biomechanical aspects and special energy-absorbing material structures, the protective solution for the driver and passenger of a so-called chest-protector. The chest area is one of the high-risk areas of the body in a motorcycle accident. In order to remedy this situation, could in future be reduced to a kind of armor for the chest area "negative consequences.
vehicle communications, cornering brake ...
Others seek solutions so that accidents do not even come to pass. Employees of the TU-Darmstadt build for the future networking of vehicles made to cooperative traffic systems. By using communication-based driver assistance systems for motorcycles Tens alerts can be automatically or by the driver himself sent to other motorcyclists to warn them in time of danger, such as a pool of oil in a curve. Similarly, research the Darmstadt University of new knowledge about the motorcycle braking curve. An analysis of detailed accident studies show that many car accidents on inadequate or incorrect brake in curves are due. Although the braking curve has a large theoretical potential, is the man as a regulator in its implementation usually overwhelmed. Previous anti-lock braking systems and combined braking systems support the driver while walking but not yet explicitly with the requirements of the braking curve, which is only possible if the roll angle is known as input. Specifically, the curve can be terrifying when braking at high gradients occurring brake steering torque (BLM) and the resulting Aufstellverhalten of the motorcycle by the driver only be compensated adequately and leads to the abandonment of the planned line. The focus of the presented research is the mechatronic BLM-preventer.
bring What the manufacturer ...
also safety-enhancing innovations presented at the motorcycle manufacturer BMW, Honda and Piaggio. Optimized active vehicle safety by intelligent combination of existing or more advanced control systems to demonstrate this in S1000RR different driving modes selectable by the driver. These create the possibility of the performance and responsiveness of the drive and the braking and acceleration of the vehicle to adapt these to the road and weather conditions. As parameters the control systems taking into account the first time not only the wheel speeds, but also the inclination of the Vehicle.
explained the Honda Combined ABS braking system of the brake-by-wire type. This braking system detects a pressure sensor, the braking impulse of the rider and the hydraulic pressure in the brake caliper by an electrically driven modulator is regulated.
The erstma ls used super bike, equipped with Combined ABS, was compared to the super bikes with conventional brakes, instantly competitive, despite the additional weight of 5.0 kg.
Piaggio yielded results of the European project "Safety in Motion (SIM), which deals with the development of innovative security concepts and this shows with a prototype. As a basis here is the "Piaggio three-wheeler" MP3 (a rear wheel and two front wheels). In summary, the safety concept of the combination of vehicle, helmet and clothing properties. So the vehicle can provide systems such as ABS, rollover valve, traction control, airbags, etc., head-up Dislplay the helmet, the driver airbag jackets and much more, which both improved active and passive protection.
Regarding the communication between a motorcycle and driver, the so-called man-machine interfaces (HMI), knew the Fraunhofer Institute to introduce appropriate ideas. As part inform species and warning driver assistance systems for motorcycles requires adapted and novel visual, auditory and tactile elements that are more user requirements. The needs of the users are the focus because of their acceptance, this is essential.
New research project ...
A in their conception, new research variant as the "Prologue" (promoting real Life Observations for Gaining Understanding of road user behavior in Europe) could be long term such as the use of such interfaces - research - virtually in the wild. During the The conference presented the EU project under the so-called "Naturalistic Driving" recorded by using sensors and cameras, the daily handling of road users over a longer period of time. It recorded all driving situations. The behavior of the driver and the data of vehicle movement to environmental factors, such as forward-moving vehicles. This extensive presentation can be much more detailed than previously studied, which react to the emergence of conflict, danger, near misses and accidents precedes it, and react in situations such as handlebars.
