Abstract:"Integrated Global Positioning System and Inertial Navigation Unit (GPS/INU) Simulator for Enhanced Traffic Safety," is a project awarded to Ohio State University to integrate different simulation models to accurately study the relationship between vehicle dynamics and roadway geometry. "Current traffic simulators do not have the capability to properly model vehicle trajectories based on the actions of drivers and vehicle characteristics. In fact, they do not consider lateral movements within the lane at all.” explains James Arnold at FHWA. “This project aims to provide an integrated design, testing, and evaluation tool for developing an advanced concept subsystem to enhance vehicle safety at the vehicle and network level."
