19th Annual Meeting of the European Association for
There is the second time that the European Association for Accident Research and Analysis (EVU) has given consent for the Institute of Forensic Engineering of Brno University of Technology and EVU Country Group of Czech Republic for organising an EVU Annual Conference. The event takes place on 14th to 16th October
At the conference time “Human factors within Traffic Accidents” will be one of the leading topics. The organisers and EVU Headquarters would like to encourage all people who want to support our conference to concentrate on this subject, human perception and technical possibilities, physical and psychological aspects of driving. Interesting biomechanical aspects and computer driver modelling will be also kindly welcomed.
We are also planning to extend the scope with papers on “Vehicle electronics”, which support drivers and motorcyclists to improve their active safety (ESP, ABS etc). Also general aspects of motorcycle accidents will be addressed. We will be also interested in “Catastrophic cases”, because these cases demand more comprehensive investigations and sometimes generate interesting proposals to improve safety or regulations.
As we know, very often “Open forum” has delivered very interesting papers, for examplethe presentation of results just-finished researches, which cannot wait for publication in far future. This conference will be the best occasion for publishing these results.
The presentations will be translated simultaneously to English, German and Czech. Conference venue is the Hotel “
