About this award
This federal contract award to Michigan Technological University (Michigan Tech) by the Federal Railroad Administration, a civilian agency, is for a two-phase project to investigate driver behavior at grade crossings and develop simulator scenarios using naturalistic driving study (NDS) data. The $271,223 definitive contract does not have a set-aside designation. The research is expected to yield an NDS database specifically for grade crossing research that can be used in future studies. The simulator research will allow examination of factors like human perception, decision-making, and distraction related to driver behavior at grade crossings. Michigan Tech has significant experience partnering with federal agencies on research and development projects across science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) disciplines.
Description
Two-phase project will use NDS data to investigate driver behavior at grade crossings and then develop simulator scenarios using these data. Proposed research will yield an NDS database specifically for grade crossing research, and this database can be used in future research. Simulator research will allow researchers to study variables noted in the BAA announcement such as human perception, decision making, and distraction.
