Extended-range electric vehicle is considered to be the ideal transition type for electric vehicle. The optimal operation curve control strategy was proposed for a 12 meter-long range extended electric bus. With exponential function inertia weight adjustment and local chaos substitution, an improved chaotic particle swarm optimization algorithm was applied to optimize the key parameters of ener...

in this paper, the 1/4 vehicle model have been simulated. the vehicle body acceleration using optimal control has been optimized. the vehicle ride comfort is achieved by using robust control, and it has been compared with optimal control. the active suspension can help the vehicle to have a good dynamic behavioral. in this paper, two degrees of freedom dynamic vibration model of a general vehic...

In this paper, the fuzzy multi-depot vehicle routing problem with simultaneous pickup and delivery (FMDVRP-SPD) is investigated. The FMDVRP-SPD is the problem of allocating customers to several depots, so that the optimal set of routes is determined simultaneously to serve the pickup and the delivery demands of each customer within scattered depots. In the problem, both pickup and delivery dema...

The directional response and roll stability characteristics of a partly filled tractor semi-trailer vehicle, with cylindrical tank, are investigated in various maneuvers. The dynamic interaction of liquid cargo with the tractor semi-trailer vehicle is also evaluated by integrating a dynamic slosh model of the partly filled tank with five-degrees-of-freedom of a tractor semi-trailer tank mode...

This paper presents the autonomous micro aerial vehicle pilot, a new autopilot platform weighing 6.25 g and measuring 11.3 cm2, specifically designed for use on micro/miniature aerial vehicle mobile sensing platforms. An overview of the hardware, firmware, ground station, and validation testing used to demonstrate this autopilot as a viable research instrument for atmospheric thermodynamic sens...

This paper addresses the path-following problem of steering an autonomous vehicle along a desired path, while tracking a predefined velocity profile. The presented solution relies on the definition of a path-dependent error space to express the dynamic model of the vehicle, which is specially suited for a Dmethodology controller implementation. The error space exhibits a high-degree of directio...

In this work a full vehicle model of a rural transport vehicle (RTV) is developed in MADYMO. The steering, tier and suspension are modeled using standard modules available in the package. A speed controller was also incorporated to maintain a constant speed of the vehicle in the simulations. Validation of the model was done against experimental accelerations measured over a bump. The validated ...
