Turbulent travel speeds in nonlinear vehicle dynamics

Vehicle travel speeds and the incidence of fatal pedestrian crashes.

The aim of this study was to estimate the likely effect of reduced travel speeds on the incidence of pedestrian fatalities in Adelaide, Australia. The study was based on the results of detailed investigations of 176 fatal pedestrian crashes in the Adelaide area between 1983 and 1991. The method developed to estimate the effect of reduced travelling speed is described and supported by references...

Nonlinear Dynamics of Vehicle Traction

The purpose of this study is to understand the nonlinear dynamics of longitudinal ground vehicle traction. Specifically, single-wheel models of rubber-tired automobiles under straight-ahead braking and acceleration conditions are investigated in detail. Customarily, the forward vehicle speed and the rotational rate of the tire/wheel are taken as dynamic states. This paper motivates an alternati...

the study of bright and surface discrete cavity solitons dynamics in saturable nonlinear media

امروزه سالیتون ها بعنوان امواج جایگزیده ای که تحت شرایط خاص بدون تغییر شکل در محیط منتشر می-شوند، زمینه مطالعات گسترده ای در حوزه اپتیک غیرخطی هستند. در این راستا توجه به پدیده پراش گسسته، که بعنوان عامل پهن شدگی باریکه نوری در آرایه ای از موجبرهای جفت شده، ظاهر می گردد، ضروری است، زیرا سالیتون های گسسته از خنثی شدن پراش گسسته در این سیستم ها بوسیله عوامل غیرخطی بوجود می آیند. گسستگی سیستم عامل...

Nonlinear Dynamics of Longitudinal Ground Vehicle Traction

NONLINEAR DYNAMICS OF LONGITUDINAL GROUND VEHICLE TRACTION By Brian John Olson The purpose of this study is to investigate and understand the nonlinear dynamics of longitudinal ground vehicle traction. Specifically, the performance of rubber-tired automobiles under straight-ahead braking and acceleration conditions is discussed in detail. Two vehicle-traction models are considered—a quarter-car...
