Stability Analysis of Nonlinear Connected Vehicle Systems

چکیده
In this paper, we investigate the nonlinear dynamics of connected vehicle systems. Vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication is exploited when controlling the longitudinal motion of a few vehicles in the traffic flow. In order to achieve the desired systemlevel behavior, the plant stability and the head-to-tail string stability are characterized at the nonlinear level using Lyapunov functions. A motif-based approach is utilized that allows modular design for large-scale vehicle networks. Stability analysis of motifs are summarized using stability diagrams, which are validated by numerical simulations.

Connected Vehicle Systems with Nonlinear Dynamics and Time Delays
In this paper, we investigate the nonlinear dynamics of connected vehicle systems in presence of time delays, which may arise due to human reaction time and/or due to intermittency and packet drops in wireless communication. Stability conditions are derived by using the Lyapunov-Krasovskii theory. A generalized frequency response function is also developed to characterize the input-output respo...
متن کاملExtension of Higher Order Derivatives of Lyapunov Functions in Stability Analysis of Nonlinear Systems
The Lyapunov stability method is the most popular and applicable stability analysis tool of nonlinear dynamic systems. However, there are some bottlenecks in the Lyapunov method, such as need for negative definiteness of the Lyapunov function derivative in the direction of the system’s solutions. In this paper, we develop a new theorem to dispense the need for negative definite-ness of Lyapunov...
متن کاملStability of Three-Wheeled Vehicles with and without Control System
In this study, stability control of a three-wheeled vehicle with two wheels on the front axle, a three-wheeled vehicle with two wheels on the rear axle, and a standard four-wheeled vehicle are compared. For vehicle dynamics control systems, the direct yaw moment control is considered as a suitable way of controlling the lateral motion of a vehicle during a severe driving maneuver. In accorda...

In this paper we introduce some stability criteria of nonlinear hybrid systems with time delay described by impulsive hybrid fuzzy system of differential equations. Firstly, a comparison principle for fuzzy differential system based on a notion of upper quasi-monotone nondecreasing is presented. Here, for stability analysis of fuzzy dynamical systems, vector Lyapunov-like functions are defined....
متن کاملNonlinear Network Modes in Cyclic Systems with Applications to Connected Vehicles
In this paper, we propose a novel technique to decompose networked systems with cyclic structure into nonlinear modes and apply these ideas to a system of connected vehicles. We perform linear and nonlinear transformations that exploit the network structure and lead to nonlinear modal equations that are decoupled. Each mode can be obtained by solving a small set of algebraic equations without d...
