A Critical Review of Optimisation Methods for Road Vehicles Design
نویسندگان
چکیده
[Abstract] The paper deals with the optimal design of road vehicles and their subsystems. The highly competitive nature of the automotive industry demands constant product innovation and reduction in product development both in time and cost while satisfying performance and legal requirements. Optimization procedures provide a scientific approach to automatically determine the most efficient designs under the target operating environment. Particular attention is devoted to the class of methods pertaining to complex system design optimization, as well as the approaches for the optimal design of complex systems under uncertainty. A critical review of the optimization methods used for solving road vehicle system design problems is reported. Some examples of design optimization are given in the field of vehicle system dynamics, powertrain design, internal combustion engine design, active and passive safety, vehicle system design and lightweight structures, advanced automotive electronics.

Emergency department resource optimisation for improved performance: a review
Emergency departments (EDs) have been becoming increasingly congested due to the combined impacts of growing demand, access block and increased clinical capability of the EDs. This congestion has known to have adverse impacts on the performance of the healthcare services. Attempts to overcome with this challenge have focussed largely on the demand management and the application of system wide p...
متن کاملEffect of Gap Acceptance Behavior of the Right Turning Vehicles on the Major Road Stream for Uncontrolled Three-Legged Intersections under Mixed Traffic Conditions
Uncontrolled intersections are the intersections where there are no external signs or signals to control the movement of vehicles. In mixed traffic conditions priority rules are often violated by the road users. In All-way-stop-controlled intersections (AWSC), the vehicle should stop themselves before they enter the intersection and should check whether any vehicles are present in the other app...
متن کاملSuspension settings for optimal ride comfort of off-road vehicles travelling on roads with different roughness and speeds
This paper reports on an investigation to determine the spring and damper settings that will ensure optimal ride comfort of an off-road vehicle, on different road profiles and at different speeds. These settings are required for the design of a four stage semi-active hydro-pneumatic spring damper suspension system (4S4). Spring and damper settings in the 4S4 can be set either to the ride mode o...
