Abstract:

the primary objective of this work is to introduce a gear ratio selection strategy for a CVT equipped vehicle and show its effectiveness on the fuel consumption reduction. AFuzzy control algorithm is designed for this purpose. Anonlinear model is developed for simulating the longitudinal vehicle dynamics with accelerator pedal applied by the driver as an input. In order that pedal input values can be used for evaluation of control strategy, a pedal cycle concept was introduced. With the help of these cycles different driving conditions were simulated and the fuel consumption results were obtained using Advisor software. Results showed that the control system was successful in reducing the fuel consumption, especially in low acceleration driving cycles

Ship Trim Optimization for the Reduction of Fuel Consumption

Greenhouse gas emissions and atmospheric pollutants, economic savings, as well as alignment with the new rules of the shipping industry's leading is a new concern. In order to meet and achieve these goals, many efforts have been made. In this paper, some methods for reducing fuel consumption, including optimization of floating trim, have been considered in design draught. In this regard, the bo...

Robust optimal multi-objective controller design for vehicle rollover prevention

Robust control design of vehicles addresses the effect of uncertainties on the vehicle’s performance. In present study, the robust optimal multi-objective controller design on a non-linear full vehicle dynamic model with 8-degrees of freedom having parameter with probabilistic uncertainty considering two simultaneous conflicting objective functions has been made to prevent the rollover. The obj...

investigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures

deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...

design of an analog fuzzy logic controller chip

fuzzy logic has been developed over the past three decades into a widely applied techinque in classification and control engineering. today fuzzy logic control is one of the most important applications of fuzzy set theory and specially fuzzy logic. there are two general approachs for using of fuzzy control, software and hardware. integrated circuits as a solution for hardware realization are us...

A neuromorphic controller for a robotic vehicle equipped with a dynamic vision sensor

Neuromorphic electronic systems exhibit advantageous characteristics, in terms of low energy consumption and low response latency, which can be useful in robotic applications that require compact and low power embedded computing resources. However, these neuromorphic circuits still face significant limitations that make their usage challenging: these include low precision, variability of compon...
