Infusing Safety in Transportation Augmented with Accessibility, Resilience, and Security (STARS) into Connected and Autonomous Vehicles (CAVs)

This proposed project will address safety, resilience, and accessibility dimensions in CAV manufacturing and deployment. It will review the security issues, types of cyberattacks, and security approaches to specific V2X communications. It will focus on how cybersecurity plays a role in ensuring the security of traffic control applications and enabling technologies being developed by CCAT. The project will recommend accessible cybersecurity approaches for specific CCAT applications. The project will address several research gaps in understanding how the penetration of connected and autonomous vehicles would enhance the resilience of surface transportation during disasters from natural extreme events. It will also analyze the human-related impacts of Connected Autonomous Vehicles (CAVs) such as safety, emissions, energy consumption, and efficiency.
