In this paper we consider the optimal sequencing of vehicles along multiple assembly lines We present a constraint based model of the problem with hard and soft constraints An advantage of a constraint based approach is that the model is declarative and there is a separation between the model and an algorithm for solving the model As a result once the model had been de ned we could experiment w...

An advanced guidance law is developed for reentry phase of a reentry vehicle. It can achieve small miss distance and desired impact attitude angle, simultanceously. To meet this requirment a guidance law based on the fuzzy logic approach is developed. It is partitioned into three stages. This guidance law does not require linearization of missile engagement model. Line-of-sight and flight path ...

This paper considers the problem of scheduling autonomous vehicles in intersections. A new system is proposed that could be an additional choice to the recently introduced autonomous intersection management (AIM) model. The proposed system is based on the production line technique, where the environment of the intersection, vehicles position, speeds and turning are specified and determined in a...

The On-Line Electric Vehicle (OLEV) is an innovative electricity-powered transportation system which remotely picks up electricity from power transmitters buried underground. Selected as one of “the 50 Best Innovations of 2010” by TIME Magazine, the OLEV is considered as a potential solution for the next generation electric-powered public bus system in Seoul. The prototype of the OLEV based bus...

Nowadays, traffic jam becomes severe rapidly. Therefore we presented the algorithms of vehicle monitoring from Three Line Scanner Imagery. In our contribution, the framework consists of three steps: vehicle detection, moving/ parking vehicle discrimination and vehicle parking identification. Now we focus on vehicle detection by Nadir-Single TLS images. We applied Explicit Model Approach. Firstl...

the evaluation and control of the trains induced vibrations needs even more attention in the case of underground tracks which passes near to monuments and historical sites. the rail corrugations which occur due to the wheels’ impulse loads during the operation period of underground railway tracks, usually amplify the ground borne noise and vibration. in the current study, the mentioned phenomen...
