| Summary: | Driving has become more important as this medium
being practically, faster and cheaper in connecting human from
one to other places. However, in some occurrences driving
activity can cause disaster or death to human in daily life as they
get fatigued while driving. Driving fatigue is one of the top
contributor to the road crashes. Therefore this study is to develop
a driving fatigue strain index (DFSI), collaborate with Decision
Support System (DSS), to quantify the risk levels caused by
driving activity, and to propose an appropriate solution in
minimizing the number of road accidents caused by the driving
fatigue. The decision support system provide fast and systematic
analysis, and solutions to minimize the risk and the number of
accidents associated with driving fatigue. The development of
DFSI is based on risk factors associated with driving activity
such as muscle activity, heart rate, hand grip force, seat pressure
distribution, whole-body vibration, and driving duration. All risk
factors are assigned with multipliers, and the DFSI is the output
or result of those multipliers. The development of DFSI is
essential to analyze the risk factors that would contribute
significantly to discomfort and fatigue associated with driving.
Besides, in the future this index will have a capability to
recommend alternative solutions to minimize fatigue while
driving. |
