Investigating levels of remote operation in high-level on-road autonomous vehicles using operator sequence diagrams (2024)
Journal Article

The continuing development of autonomous vehicle technology is making the presence of fully autonomous vehicles (SAE Level 5 of Driving Automation) on the road an ever more likely possibility. Similarly, regulation changes show countries are preparin... Read More about Investigating levels of remote operation in high-level on-road autonomous vehicles using operator sequence diagrams.

Deriving UX Dimensions for Future Autonomous Taxi Interface Design (2022)
Journal Article

Advances in autonomous vehicle (AV) technologies mean that driverless taxis could become a part of everyday life in cities within the next decade. We present a user-design activity leading to the development of an experience-design framework for auto... Read More about Deriving UX Dimensions for Future Autonomous Taxi Interface Design.

Deriving Personas to Inform HMI Design for Future Autonomous Taxis: A Case Study on User- Requirement Elicitation (2021)
Journal Article

Automated, Mobility-as-a-Service Vehicles (AV-MaaSs) – Autonomous Taxis - are expected to offer an inexpensive, mobility-on-demand service supporting greater sustainable transportation systems, including ‘last mile’ solutions. However, to date little... Read More about Deriving Personas to Inform HMI Design for Future Autonomous Taxis: A Case Study on User- Requirement Elicitation.

The influence of incentives and instructions on behaviour in driving simulator studies (2019)
Journal Article

© 2019 Elsevier Ltd There are a number of factors which may influence the validity of experimental studies, including the incentives offered and the instructions provided to participants. These have been little-studied in the driving domain. The aim... Read More about The influence of incentives and instructions on behaviour in driving simulator studies.

Systems Theoretic Accident Model and Process (STAMP) applied to a Royal Navy Hawk jet missile simulation exercise (2018)
Journal Article

The Royal Navy uses Hawk jets to simulate sea-skimming missile attacks against vessels as part of their training regulations. To best achieve these goals, pilots of the Hawk are required to fly at approximately 50 feet above sea level to accurately m...

Investigating the effect of urgency and modality of pedestrian alert warnings on driver acceptance and performance (2018)
Journal Article

Active safety systems have the potential to reduce the risk to pedestrians by warning the driver and/or taking evasive action to reduce the effects of or avoid a collision. However, current systems are limited in the range of scenarios they can addre...

The virtual landing pad: facilitating rotary-wing landing operations in degraded visual environments (2018)
Journal Article

Understanding the effects of peripheral vision and muscle memory on in-vehicle touchscreen interactions (2018)
Journal Article

It is important to gain a better understanding of how drivers interact with in-vehicle touchscreens to help design interfaces to minimise “eyes off road” time. The study aimed to investigate the relative effects of two interaction mechanisms (periphe...

Beyond human error taxonomies in assessment of risk in sociotechnical systems: a new paradigm with the EAST ‘broken-links’ approach (2016)
Journal Article

© 2016 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group. Risk assessments in Sociotechnical Systems (STS) tend to be based on error taxonomies, yet the term ‘human error’ does not sit easily with STS theories and concepts. A new break-link app...

Driving without wings: the effect of different digital mirror locations on the visual behaviour, performance and opinions of drivers (2016)
Journal Article

Drivers' awareness of the rearward road scene is critical when contemplating or executing lane-change manoeuvres, such as overtaking. Preliminary investigations have speculated on the use of rear-facing cameras to relay images to displays mounted ins...

Extending helicopter operations to meet future integrated transportation needs (2015)
Journal Article

Helicopters have the potential to be an integral part of the future transport system. They offer a means of rapid transit in an overly populated transport environment. However, one of the biggest limitations on rotary wing flight is their inability t... Read More about Extending helicopter operations to meet future integrated transportation needs.

Investigating performance of command team structures in the NATO problem-approach space (2015)
Journal Article

The purpose of this study was to investigate whether the NATO Problem-Approach Space could be mapped to optimal performance of different team structures. The results show that the five team communication structures (chain, Y, circle, wheel, and all-c...

Safety in systems-of-systems: ten key challenges (2014)
Journal Article

A System-of-Systems (SoS) describes a large and distributed network of component subsystems which are themselves complex and autonomous. The goals of a SoS can only be achieved by the interactions of the subsystems and not by any subsystem in isolati... Read More about Safety in systems-of-systems: ten key challenges.

What the drivers do and do not tell you: using verbal protocol analysis to investigate driver behaviour in emergency situations (2014)
Journal Article

Although task analysis of pedestrian detection can provide us with useful insights into how a driver may behave in emergency situations, the cognitive elements of driver decision-making are less well understood. To assist in the design of future Adva... Read More about What the drivers do and do not tell you: using verbal protocol analysis to investigate driver behaviour in emergency situations.

Sub-systems on the road to vehicle automation: hands and feet free but not 'mind' free driving (2013)
Journal Article

Automation essentially enables drivers to become “hands and feet free” but not necessarily “mind-free” during vehicle operation and on these grounds, increased vehicle automation may contribute to safety concerns rather than overcome them. Although a... Read More about Sub-systems on the road to vehicle automation: hands and feet free but not 'mind' free driving.
