THEMATICS

The aim of the international RSS conference is to bring together interdisciplinary researchers and practitioners in the field of road safety and to allow them to exchange on advances in simulation techniques and their applications to safety analysis. A special emphasis is put on driving simulation and how this technique can help in roadway design and in studying emerging technologies with respect to human factors and their safety effects. Driving Simulation - basic concepts (including simulator sickness) - validation of driving simulators - scenario modelling - validation from the drivers’ perspective - related areas such as video analysis Numerical Simulation - basic concepts - validation - virtual prototyping Applications - safety prediction - road design - ITS design - eco-driving - training, retraining (including impaired peoples)
