Acknowledgement
First of all, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to my supervisor
Prof. Dr.-Ing Matthias Rötting for his encouragement, guidance and
continuous support of my Ph.D study. His patience, enthusiasm, and
immense knowledge helped me in all the time of my research and writing of
this dissertation. I would also like to thank Prof. Dr. Takashi Toriizuka and
the rest of my thesis committee for their encouragement, insightful
comments and questions.
My sincere thanks also go to all of my colleagues in the Chair of Human-
Machine-Systems for the stimulating discussions and the enjoyable time in
the last four years. In particular, I would like to thank Mario Lasch and
Stefan Damke for their untired help and support during the experiments.
Also I would like to thank my colleagues Sebastian Welke and Marco
Pedrotti for the collaboration in this project, and Micheal Beckman for
helping me with the German abstract translation.
Last but not the least, I am thankful to my wife, Mrs. Peng Cheng,
supporting me spiritually throughout my life. I would also like to thank my
family: my parents Yanghuai Lei and Baimei Liu, for giving birth to me, and
my parents-in-law Zhaoyi Cheng and Shufen Xing for their thoughtful care
of my life.
