Abstract
To simulate the car-to-car crash accidents in the real field,
the Autonomous Driving System was developed. This system consists
of communicating, sensing, accelerating, braking, steering and data
recording subsystems. All these were designed to be compact, light
and collapsible, so that the crash characteristics of test vehicle
were not affected.
The velocity performance of the system covers from 10 kph to 100
kph within ± 0.5 kph error, and the lateral deviation is
constrained within ± 20 mm.
With this system, several frontal offset and side car-to-car
crash tests were carried out successfully. Deformations, injury
levels, deceleration signals and dynamic behaviors during crash
were typically investigated. And the dynamic behaviors were
compared with the simulation results of EDSMAC.
Car-to-car crash tests between small and large vehicles with
different masses were carried out and the effects on the
compatibility were investigated.
