A hybrid microscopic model for multimodal traffic with empirical observations from aerial footage

Microscopic traffic flow models can be distinguished in lane-based or lane-free depending on the degree of lane-discipline. This distinction holds true only if motorcycles are neglected in lane-based traffic. In cities, as opposed to highways, this is an o ...

Risk assessment of pedestrian crossings: a stochastic video-based analysis

Adrien Nicolet

Although pedestrian crossings are supposed to guarantee safety, accidents are still frequent. Prior to implementing any measures to address this issue, the safety of the pedestrian crossing must be assessed. Various indices estimating the safety of pedestr ...

A new collision warning system for lead vehicles in rear-end collisions

Alcherio Martinoli, Sven Adrian Gowal, Adrian Cabrera

Collision Warning Systems (CWS) are safety sys- tems designed to warn the driver about an imminent collision. A CWS monitors the dynamic state of the traffic in real- time by processing information from various proprioceptive and exteroceptive sensors. It ...

An Indoor Flying Platform with Collision Robustness and Self-Recovery

Dario Floreano, Jean-Christophe Zufferey, Adrien Briod, Adam Klaptocz, Grégoire Boutinard Rouelle

This paper presents a new paradigm in the design of indoor flying robots that replaces collision avoidance with collision robustness. Indoor flying robots must operate within constrained and cluttered environments where even nature’s most sophisticated fly ...

Electron heat transport studies

Yann Camenen

Electron transport in fusion plasmas is intensively studied in coordinated experiments and great progress in physics understanding has been achieved during the past years. A threshold in normalized gradient explains most of the observations, both in steady ...
