Safety Blind Spot in Remote Driving: Considerations for Risk Assessment of Connection Loss Fallback Strategies

no code implementations14 Feb 2025 Leon Johann Brettin, Niklas Braun, Robert Graubohm, Markus Maurer

Current remote driving concepts for public road traffic often establish a fallback strategy of immediate braking to a standstill in the event of a connection loss.

Towards Closing the Gap between Model-Based Systems Engineering and Automated Vehicle Assurance: Tailoring Generic Methods by Integrating Domain Knowledge

no code implementations10 Feb 2025 Marcus Nolte, Markus Maurer

As complex systems, automated driving systems will inevitably be subject to emergent properties, i. e., the properties of the overall system will be more than just a sum of the properties of its integrated elements.

A Review of Conceptualizations of Safety and Risk in Current Automated Driving Regulation

no code implementations10 Feb 2025 Marcus Nolte, Leon Johann Brettin, Hans Steege, Nayel Salem, Marvin Loba, Robert Graubohm, Markus Maurer

In the communication between stakeholder groups, common notions of these abstract concepts are key for efficient communication and setting mutual expectations.

An Ontology-based Approach Towards Traceable Behavior Specifications in Automated Driving

no code implementations10 Sep 2024 Nayel Fabian Salem, Marcus Nolte, Veronica Haber, Till Menzel, Hans Steege, Robert Graubohm, Markus Maurer

In this article, we propose the Semantic Norm Behavior Analysis as an ontology-based approach to specify the behavior for an Automated Driving System equipped vehicle.

Towards Scenario- and Capability-Driven Dataset Development and Evaluation: An Approach in the Context of Mapless Automated Driving

Identifikation auslösender Umstände von SOTIF-Gefährdungen durch systemtheoretische Prozessanalyse

no code implementations11 Mar 2024 Robert Graubohm, Marvin Loba, Marcus Nolte, Markus Maurer

Developers have to obtain a sound understanding of existing risk potentials already in the concept phase of driverless vehicles.

On Assumptions with Respect to Occlusions in Urban Environments for Automated Vehicle Speed Decisions

no code implementations15 May 2023 Robert Graubohm, Nayel Fabian Salem, Marcus Nolte, Markus Maurer

Automated driving systems are subject to various kinds of uncertainty during design, development, and operation.

Risk Management Core -- Towards an Explicit Representation of Risk in Automated Driving

no code implementations15 Feb 2023 Nayel Fabian Salem, Thomas Kirschbaum, Marcus Nolte, Christian Lalitsch-Schneider, Robert Graubohm, Jan Reich, Markus Maurer

While current automotive safety standards provide implicit guidance on how unreasonable risk can be avoided, manufacturers are required to specify risk acceptance criteria for Automated Driving Systems (SAE Level 3 and higher).

Ein Beitrag zur durchgängigen, formalen Verhaltensspezifikation automatisierter Straßenfahrzeuge

no code implementations15 Sep 2022 Nayel Fabian Salem, Veronica Haber, Matthias Rauschenbach, Marcus Nolte, Jan Reich, Torben Stolte, Robert Graubohm, Markus Maurer

With the introduction of the \textit{semantic norm behavior analysis} a method is proposed, which contributes to a traceable mapping of concerns towards the behavior of an automated vehicle in its operational environment to a formal rule system of semantic concepts for considered scenarios.

A Taxonomy to Unify Fault Tolerance Regimes for Automotive Systems: Defining Fail-Operational, Fail-Degraded, and Fail-Safe

no code implementations21 Jun 2021 Torben Stolte, Stefan Ackermann, Robert Graubohm, Inga Jatzkowski, Björn Klamann, Hermann Winner, Markus Maurer

This paper presents a taxonomy that allows defining the fault tolerance regimes fail-operational, fail-degraded, and fail-safe in the context of automotive systems.

Scenarios for Development, Test and Validation of Automated Vehicles

no code implementations5 Jan 2018 Till Menzel, Gerrit Bagschik, Markus Maurer

In this paper, the authors present requirements for the representation of scenarios in different process steps defined by the ISO 26262 standard, propose a consistent terminology based on prior publications for the identified levels of abstraction, and demonstrate how scenarios can be systematically evolved along the phases of the development process outlined in the ISO 26262 standard.
