Automated vehicles (AVs) aim to dramatically improve traffic safety by reducing or
eliminating human error, which remains the leading cause of road crashes. However …

Self-driving vehicles (SDVs)–above the SAE automation level 4–are designed to operate
without human intervention [1]. Due to the expected advantages attributed to SDVs, such as …

We address ethical dilemma situations that may arise during autonomous driving. To
evaluate how this deliberation could work, we propose a decision-making algorithm based …

We consider the social dilemma related to the trolley problem in ethics regarding the driving
behavior of an autonomous vehicle (AV) when there are passengers in the AV and …

While it is widely agreed that automated and autonomous vehicles may provide safety
benefits over vehicles with lower level or no automation, due to other road users there will …

This research uses modelling and simulation tools to investigate a vehicle ethical steering
control system (ESCS) for autonomous vehicles (AVs). The ESCS would be activated when …

This abstract discusses the significant progress made in autonomous vehicles, focusing on
decision‐making systems and control algorithms. It explores recent advances, challenges …

Platooning system is a relevant solution for sustainable freight transportation due to its
capability to substantially improve fuel efficiency, safety, and traffic flow. Most of the recent …

Due to unavoidable accident risks, decisions in the motion planning of autonomous vehicles
have a complex moral component. Decisions previously made by humans will be executed …

From a societal point of view, autonomous vehicles (AV) can bring many benefits, such as
an increase of road safety and a decrease of congestion. However, due to the highly …
