摘要

When slopes are very steep (for instance 1:1) vehicles will overturn in slope incidents. Slopes can be relatively steep (gradients of 1:2 to 1:3) if they have an obstacle free zone. The report discusses in detail the determination of the influence of the different characteristics of slopes on the results of slope incidents, and specifically how such slopes should be designed if there are obstacles like trees or ditches at the feet of the slope. To prevent such severe accidents the vehicle has to stay on the slope in slope incidents. This can only be possible if the driver can make vehicle maneuvers. The research ascertains the slope design upon which effective correction maneuvers are possible. Slope incidents are simulated using the VEDYAC (vehicle dynamics and crash dynamics) computer model and the results are presented.
