Abstract:

Based on the National Automobile Accident in-Depth Investigation System (NAIS) database, the T-intersection dangerous scenarios in the traffic environment was investigated. 4 types of T-intersection dangerous accident scenarios were obtained with MATLAB software for cluster analysis and by using the hierarchical clustering method. Through the kinematic analysis and modeling of the 3 types of dangerous scenes when turning, the speed-distance dangerous model was constructed, and the kinematic parameters were combined to obtain the dangerous collision domains under the 3 types of T-junction turning dangerous scenes. The results show that under the conditions of conflict between a passenger vehicle going straight and a passenger vehicle turning left, the dangerous collision range is 1.67~68.45 m when the passenger car turns left at entrance 1; while the dangerous collision range is -1.20~136.00 m when the passenger car turns left at entrance 3; when a commercial vehicle turns right and a two-wheeler goes straight, the dangerous collision range is 0.78~121.30 m; the dangerous collision range is -15.75~283.30 m when a commercial vehicle turns right and a commercial vehicle goes straight. The results of the research can be used as a reference for the development and testing of auxiliary driving safety systems.
