This paper introduces the a framework that simplifies process of designing and describing autonomous vehicle platooning manoeuvres which implements four design principles: Standardisation, Encapsulation, Abstraction, Decoupling (SEAD). Although large body research has been formulating manoeuvres, it is still challenging to design, describe, read, understand them. difficulty largely arises from ...

A new method to enhance the performance of multi radar tracking systems is presented in this paper. In parallel to an IMM model type tracker a second tracker estimates track heading and speed based upon differential measurements from multiple sensors. A differential measurement contains the differences between two subsequent measurements from one sensor. This new method accepts information from...

The paper presents a driver model, which can be used in a computer simulation of a curved ride of a car. The identification of the driver parameters consisted in a comparison of the results of computer calculations obtained for the driver-vehicle-environment model with different driver data sets with test results of the double lane-change manoeuvre (Standard No. ISO/TR 3888:1975, International ...

The blowing and venting of ballast tanks could potentially be used as a complementary control system to improve the manoeuvrability of manned submarines. To test the feasibility of such a control system, we first propose a mathematical model for these operations. Then, the model is applied to the control of an emergency manoeuvre by using only the blowing and venting of ballast tanks as control...

Symptoms, smoking history, and variates taken from the forced expiratory manoeuvre were studied in a group of 271 healthy men attending a mass radiography unit. It was found that correlation of the forced expiratory ratio (FEV1/FVC) with the presence of mild or moderate respiratory symptoms was at least as satisfactory as that of technically more complicated measurements such as MEF50 and MEF75...

Twenty novice male weight lifters performed resistance exercises using three different breathing techniques to determine the effects on blood pressure. Systolic and diastolic blood pressures were measured by an automated non-invasive method while subjects performed the single arm curl and double knee extension using the different breathing techniques. Performing the Valsalva manoeuvre (breath-h...

Objectives: This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of Epley's and maneuvers plus betahistine for treating benign paroxysmal positional vertigo in a Peshawar tertiary care hospital. Method: The took place from January 15th, 2018, 2019, at hospital evaluation. There are two types patients we aiming for. In group A, with underwent technique alone, whereas those B received both procedure bet...

Ports are the connection points between sea and land in maritime industry, have an important role world trade. host many ships each day. The characteristics of that can manoeuvre within port limits determined depending on technical structure ports environmental conditions ports’ location. such as their type, length, width, draft, tonnage factors determine port’s limitations. If these restrictio...
