Fachgebiet für Verkehrssicherheit und Zuverlässigkeit

Research

    
The research of the chair for traffic safety and reliability focuses on system and model-based reliability analysis, multi-agent systems, interacting particle systems, pedestrian and evacuation dynamics, highway and mixed urban traffic, intelligent transportation systems, and advanced driver-assistance systems.

We develop and analyze mathematical models and numerical simulation tools based on differential systems, stochastic processes, or data-driven algorithms. We calibrate and train models and algorithms using experimental and field data. The objective is to identify, understand, predict, and control complex systems, including collective dynamics. The computations are carried out using open-source packages in R or Python and multi-agent simulation platforms such as NetLogo and SUMO.

   
Approach:         Modelling  →  Analysis  →  Simulation  →  Optimisation

Duality:             Linear models  ↔  Non-linear models
                          Physics and knowledge-based  ↔  Data-driven / Deep learning
                          Microscopic approaches  ↔  Mesoscopic / Macroscopic approaches
