The use of computational steering for smog prediction is described. This application is representative for many underlying issues found in steering high performance applications: high computing times, large data sets, and many di erent input parameters. After a short description of the smog prediction model, its visualization and steering are described. The amount of computation needed to solve...

The paper addresses the problem of vehicle rollover avoidance using reference governors applied to modify the driver steering input in vehicles with an active steering system. Several reference governor designs are presented and tested with a detailed nonlinear simulation model. The vehicle dynamics are highly nonlinear for large steering angles, including the conditions where the vehicle appro...

In today’s world, the effectiveness of electronic active control systems in stabilizing a vehicle’s motion has been recognized; thus, numerous active control systems have been developed to realize effective braking torque and traction control and have been incorporated in mass-produced vehicles. However, an effective active control system for steering is not yet available. Active front steering...

The controlling behaviour of a vehicle is influenced by the performance of its steering system. The steering system consists of steering wheel, steering column, rack and pinion, steering gearbox, and a linkage system. The vehicle is controlled by the behaviour of the steering gear with the spring loaded rack and pinion. This spring loading arrangement consists of yoke nut, spring, and plunger. ...

according to high costs of phase shifters in antenna arrays, new methods for beam steering without phase shifter were introduced. frequency diverse array (fda) concept is another approach to beam steering problem. in this structure, the subsequent antenna elements are fed with stepped discrete frequencies causing continuous scanning of space in time. so a range-angle dependent scanning is made ...

A space platform for optical communications could benefit from nonmechanical beam steering in which no inertia is used to redirect the laser communications link. This benefit is to come in the form of compact, low-power, lightweight optical phased arrays that provide greater flexibility in their steering capability. Non-mechanical beam steering eliminates the need for massive optomechanical com...

Electric Power Steering (EPS) is a full electric system, which reduces the amount of steering effort by directly applying the output from an electric motor to the steering system. In this paper, the constitutions and its operational mechanism of electric power steering system, and the construction and the equivalent circuit of the DC motor used in EPS were introduced; and the EPS hardware frame...

In this poster, we outline a research study of the steering system for a potential land speed record vehicle. We built a cockpit enclosure to simulate the interior space and employed a game engine to create a suitable virtual simulation and appropriate physical behaviour of the vehicle to give a realistic experience that has a suitable level of difficulty to represent the challenge of such a ta...
