Abstract

<p>In recent years, the shortage of truck drivers has become a problem in the logistics industry because of an increase in cargo volume, aging drivers, and a shortage of young drivers. In order to improve these problems, a Longer and Heavier Vehicle (LHV) (which will be referred to as “21m-long truck” in this paper) was introduced. This 21m-long truck can carry about twice as many cargo volume as a regular truck, so it is expected to be one of the solutions in the logistics industry which has a problem of serious labor shortages. In addition, an advantage that can be considered for the global environment, is reducing carbon dioxide emissions per thousand ton-kilometer. In this study, we handle GPS data of 21m-long truck and the driver's heart rate data. The high accelerations observed with GPS data were plotted on a map, the observed points were examined, the relationship with how the driver is stressed was clarified, and the safety of 21m-long truck operation could be confirmed.</p>
