Research Topic: Modeling of Driver-Vehicle in the Loop (DVL) – Modeling of Cognitive-Motor, Psycho-Physiological Characteristics of Human Operator/Driver of Automotive Systems

Main R/D objectives concerns with development of a cognitive-motor model of human psycho-physiological behaviour actively interacting with road geometry and other objects (participants) in surrounding. As vehicle operators, drivers can have different levels of driving skill (advanced, non-experienced, restricted, etc.). The model was integrated within the entire model structure of automotive system providing advanced “driver-vehicle in the loop” model of the system.
