Research Focus

Research Focus of the VSI:

  • Safety of energy storage systems
  • Crash behaviour of structures
  • Behaviour and modelling of humans in critical situations 
  • Accident avoidance and injury prevention to protect occupants in vehicles with different levels of automation and vulnerable road users 
     

Methods applied at the VSI

To study research questions, combinations of different methods are applied:

  • Accident Research
  • In-house accident database CEDATU
  • Testing with unique self-developed testbeds 
  • Finite Element Simulations (mainly explicit)
  • Agent Simulations (CARLA, OpenPASS,..)
  • Enhanced Data Analysis Methods
  • Machine Learning Algorithms
