doi:10.3969/j.issn.1674-0696.2022.10.01

Abstract

Abstract: As an important content and link of road design, road safety evaluation has always been paid attention to by road design and management departments. In the past, the design consistency and other indicators were mainly relied on in road safety evaluation, and dynamic simulation of design results was seldomly carried out. CarSim, as a professional software combining vehicle dynamics and road reality, was widely used in the field of vehicle engineering. At the same time, more and more researchers in the field of road engineering began to use this software for their own professional research. The current situation and development trend of the application of CarSim software in road engineering safety evaluation at home and abroad were summarized, and the practicability and applicability of safety evaluation technology based on CarSim and other software in the field of road engineering were discussed. The integration of road safety and vehicle driving characteristics is an inevitable trend of road design evaluation, and the organic combination of people, vehicles and roads and the future demand direction still need to be explored in depth.

Key words: traffic and transportation engineering; Carsim; safety evaluation; road surface characteristics; rutting; skid-resistance performance

摘要： 道路安全评价作为道路设计的重要内容和环节，一直受到道路设计与管理部门的重视。以往道路安全评价主要依赖设计一致性等指标，很少进行设计结果的动态仿真。CarSim作为一款专业车辆动力学和道路实景相结合的软件，在车辆工程领域被广泛使用。同时越来越多道路工程领域的研究者也开始使用这款软件进行各自专业方向内的研究。总结了CarSim软件在国内外道路工程安全评价中应用相应的现状与发展趋势，讨论了基于CarSim等软件的安全评价技术在道路工程领域的实用性与适用性。道路安全性与车辆行驶特征相交融是道路设计评价的必然趋势，在人-车-路的有机结合和未来需求方向仍需要深入探究。
