The Effects Of Ecotourism On Polar Bear Behavior
… This study investigated the effect of tourist vehicles and human presence on the behavior of polar bears over the fall of 2003 and 2004. Overall time budgets were estimated for bears, and the behavior of males and females was compared. Females spent significantly less time lying and more time …

Context-aware pedestrian intent prediction for connected and automated vehicles
… safety features in assisted and self-driving vehicles have the potential to augment situational awareness and improve the safety of road users. Detecting pedestrian intention is a key element in providing safer urban environments to automated vehicles. However, the complexity involved in …

Theory and experimental investigation of tracking control of wheeled mobile robots
… The first control algorithm is using a "virtual vehicle approach", which is shown to be robust with respect to error and disturbances; the second one is a time-varying adaptive control algorithm developed for a general class of nonholonomic mechanical system, which guarantees the global stability …

Study of Bus Driver Behavior at the Onset of Yellow Traffic Signal Indication for the Design of Yellow Time Durations
… signals are a major cause of intersection vehicle crashes. The yellow interval is used to inform approaching drivers of an upcoming change in the traffic signal indication from green to red. Current yellow-interval durations are currently calculated to accommodate for dilemma zone …

Development of a Threat Assessment Algorithm for Intersection Collision Avoidance Systems
… roadway element and a prime location for vehicle conflicts. Traditional safety treatments are effective at addressing certain types of intersection safety deficiencies; however, cumulative traffic data suggests these treatments do not address a large portion of the crashes that occur each …
