Using PC Crash simulation program to determine optimum width of access road

Abstract

The article deals with the possibility to use the PC Crash simulation program in order to calculate the alternative movements of a vehicle when entering an access road of a private land from a public road. The article demonstrates a procedure of an expert on road transport and means of transport in calculations for individual types of vehicles that may actually enter the land in question. In addition, it shows the results of simulations which take into account real vehicle properties, such as the influence of the vehicle suspension on its movement, actual conditions of a drive-away of vehicles and their change of direction, i.e. a directional deviation of tyres, steering of individual wheels of the front axle and other influences on the final calculation. In conclusion, the outcome of described expert procedures and their impact on the final assessment are presented.
