The IOC recommended that athletes should not be allowed participate in international competitions unless participants act as neutral...

H-output feedback control is applied to the control of automobile active suspensions based on a dynamic model of the full vehicle. The output feedback control is desirable from the viewpoint of implementation in the sense that it reduces the number of measurements drastically compared with state feedback used currently in suspension control. In this paper, the authors show that a linearized mod...

This paper discusses the use of hybrid automata to specify and verify embedded distributed systems that consist of both discrete and continuous components The basis of the evaluation is an automotive control system which controls the height of an automobile by pneumatic suspension It has been proposed by BMW AG as a case study taken from a current industrial development Essential parts of the s...

This paper shows how HyTech, a symbolic model checker for linear hybrid systems, can be used to verify a part of an abstracted automotive control system. The system controls the height of an automobile by a pneumatic suspension system and has been proposed by BMW AG as a case study taken from a current industrial development. For a system which controls one wheel we verify safety properties, su...

Currently, from the statistical analysis of accidents at home and abroad, the number of automobile defects and the resulting automobile accidents are very large. Obviously, the automobile defects have become one of the main factors affecting traffic safety, and risk assessment as an automobile key technical defect of risk management, the elimination of defects and reduce automobile accidents ar...

Customers expect a modern automobile to be comfortable and safe. The spring damper system in the wheel suspension is the most important component to ensure both. During the design process of the spring damping a physically based conflict between these two main functions arises. For passive systems improving the driving comfort will always worsen the driving safety and vice versa. We developed a...

The growth of the fleet rolling stock motor transport increases requirements for road safety, which is largely determined by operational reliability and technical condition components mechanisms chassis. In many countries, large-scale studies are being conducted related to problems improving quality, durability vehicles technological equipment based on repair kits, as well manufacturing assembl...

There are many kinds of automobile after-sale service spare parts, which are with a complex relationship in replacement and a large time span in models. The management of automobile after-sale service spare parts is a challenge, not only for automobile manufacturer but also for distributor. Therefore, it becomes an important and difficult task for automobile enterprises to do well in the supply...

Although the hype surrounding the promise of electronic commerce seems all pervasive currently, there is an absence of research on automobile eCommerce, especially in developing countries, which covers wide-ranging issues beyond contextual imperatives. This paper tries to fill in the gap, by analyzing the impacts of eCommerce on automobile industry in China, and the factors of eCommerce adoptio...

The determination of the optimal carrying capacity procurement of rail and shipping services in the automobile intermodal network with unique characteristics is essential to save automobile delivery cost. In this research we develop a two-stage stochastic programming model for the tactical-level decision problem arising in the special automobile intermodal network. Furthermore, we improve the s...
