Road work zones pose significant safety risks to both vehicles passing by and the construction workers moving within the work zones. Over recent years, significant research efforts have been dedicated to work zone safety, particularly by leveraging emerging technologies. This paper aims to review the literature on performance evaluation of safety technologies designed to mitigate struck-by hazards. This review identified 57 relevant publications focusing on technology evaluation, which were critically reviewed using the Four-component Cyber-Physical System (CPS) hierarchy and the Adapted Layer of Protection Analysis (ALOPA) framework. The CPS hierarchy-based review unveiled the focused components under evaluation, the relationship among these components, the methodologies employed, and the key performance results. The extent and completeness of the evaluation methods were examined through the ALOPA framework. The findings of this research highlight emerging trends that explore the impact of human factors on accident avoidance outcomes in risk-free virtual environments and suggest several prospective considerations as per ALOPA that can guide future research towards performance-based evaluations and design optimisations.

道路工区安全事故警报系统的性能评估


道路工作区对经过的车辆和在工作区内移动的建筑工人构成重大安全风险。近年来，人们致力于工作区安全方面的大量研究工作，特别是通过利用新兴技术。本文旨在回顾有关旨在减轻撞击危险的安全技术性能评估的文献。本综述确定了 57 篇专注于技术评估的相关出版物，这些出版物使用四组件信息物理系统 （CPS） 层次结构和适应保护层分析 （ALOPA） 框架进行了严格审查。CPS 基于层次结构的审查揭示了正在评估的重点组成部分、这些组成部分之间的关系、采用的方法以及关键绩效结果。通过 ALOPA 框架检查了评估方法的范围和完整性。这项研究的结果突出了探索人为因素对无风险虚拟环境中事故避免结果的影响的新兴趋势，并根据 ALOPA 提出了几个前瞻性考虑因素，这些考虑因素可以指导未来的研究转向基于性能的评估和设计优化。
