This paper proposes a dynamic right-of-way priority control approach for emergency vehicles (PDR-EVs) to improve their efficiency on basic road sections in the city based cooperative vehicle infrastructure system. Specifically, movable physical function area was set front of EVs prohibit connected (CVs) from entering lane or request them change lanes avoid collision. Setting up monitoring at EV...

in this research, first, kinematic and dynamic equations of a 4-dof 3-link robotic finger are derived using denavit-hartenberg convention and lagrange’s formulation. to model the muscles, several springs and dampers are placed between the finger links. then, two advanced controllers, namely adaptive-robust and adaptive-neural, which can control the robotic finger in presence of parametric uncer...

in this paper the effect of braking force error on the dynamic behavior of the truck is investigated. in the previous studies concerning the braking force error on the vehicle lateral deviation, to avoid complexity, researchers have assumed that the vehicle velocity during the braking process remains constant. in the present work, based on the realistic assumption that the vehicle velocity woul...

An articulated vehicle suspension comprising a parallel combination of energy restoring and dissipative elements and a feedback controlled force generator is analyzed using Linear Quadratic Gaussian (LQG) control technique. Ari ideal active suspension scheme is formulated to minimize a quadratic performance measure comprising ride quality, cargo safety, suspension and tire dynamic deflections, ...

Airbreathing hypersonic systems offer distinct performance advantages over rocket-based systems for space access vehicles. However, these performance advantages are dependent upon advances in current state-of-the-art technologies in many areas such as ram/scramjet propulsion integration, high temperature materials, aero-elastic structures, thermal protection systems, transition to hypersonics a...

The paper presents an application of the Skyhook control of suspension MR dampers in a vehicular vibration control system. Experiments were conducted using an ATV (all-terrain vehicle) traversing a test route. The system elements were analyzed and calibrated paying special attention to the space orientation of sensors and MR dampers. Orientation data and inversed Bingham model, which maps dynam...

The sliding-mode controller (SMC) for the lateral motion control problem of Four Driving-Steering Wheels (4DW/SW) vehicle is presented in this paper. The lane centerline tracking is the main control performance. The dynamic model of the vehicle has been taken into account. Closed-loop robustness to uncertainties is achieved. The lane centerline tracking is achieved using look-ahead techniques. ...

A method is presented for combining two previously proposed algorithms for path-planning and dynamic steering control into a computationally feasible scheme for real-time feedback control of autonomous vehicles in uncertain environments. In the proposed approach to vehicle guidance and control, Path Relaxation is used to compute critical points along a globally desirable path using a priori inf...
