چکیده

This thesis deals with the teleoperation of a ground vehicle, specifically the construction processes associated with actuating the vehicle and the computer systems necessary for its control. The primary objectives of this thesis are to present the successes and failures of developing a ground vehicle platform to be used for teleoperation, to outline the computer architecture needed for wireless control of the vehicle, and to convey the lessons that were learned along the way. Development of a teleoperated vehicle is a multi-faceted project. One of the most important steps to a successful teleoperated vehicle is the construction of a capable actuation system. Once the actuation system is designed and constructed, the system must be given commands to govern its performance, and hence the performance of the teleoperated vehicle. With the development of an off-road vehicle platform, the groundwork is laid for significant advances in teleoperation and the entire field of unmanned vehicle technology.

Urban Vehicle Congestion Pricing: A Review

Drivers in urban neighborhoods who cruise streets, seeking inexpensive on-street parking create a significant fraction of measured traffic congestion. The solution to this problem is to reduce the total traffic volume including cruising traffic by implementing a congestion pricing scheme: the imposition of a usage fee on a limited-capacity resource during times of high demand. We review the his...

Development of an indirect ELISA for bovine mastitis using Sip protein of Streptococcus agalactiae

The sip gene encoding for a conserved highly immunogenic surface protein of Streptococcus agalactiae was amplified using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and subcloned into prokaryotic expression vector pET32a (+) and expressed as a recombinant protein in E. coli BL21 (DE3). An indirect enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was developed using the purified Sip protein as a coating antigen, w...

Study of Vibration Specifications of a Three-axle Truck Using Lagrange Method

In this research, Ride quality of a three-axle truck is investigated to understand its vibration specifications and influence of it on special load. The truck is Benz 2624, and the load is rather sensitive to vibrations. The system is considered for an off-road duty. Hence, the vehicle is modeled as a nineteen-degree of freedom system and its equations of motion are derived by employing Lagrang...
