This paper presents the Real-Time Recursive Dynamics (RTRD) model that is developed for driving simulators. The model could be implemented in the Driving Simulator. The RTRD can also be used for off-line high-speed dynamics analysis, compared with commercial multibody dynamics codes, to speed up mechanical design process. An overview of RTRD is presented in the paper. Basic models for specific ...

The vigilance of the driver is important for railway safety, despite not being included in the safety management system (SMS) for high-speed train safety. In this paper, a novel fatigue detection system for high-speed train safety based on monitoring train driver vigilance using a wireless wearable electroencephalograph (EEG) is presented. This system is designed to detect whether the driver is...

This paper presents the movement dynamic of the train and the relationship between the speed of wheel and train, as well as a discussion about the concept of wheel slip. There are two different operation regions designated as creep and wheelspin areas for wheel slip. Creep and wheelspin areas have stable and unstable characteristics, respectively. Wheels and rails are constructed from iron, and...

This paper describes method for detecting the early signs of fatigue in train drivers. As soon as the train driver is falling in symptoms of fatigue immediate message will be transfer to the control room indicating the status of the drivers. In addition of the advance technology of heart rate sensors is also added in the system for correct detection of status of driver if in either case driver ...

Abstract Background ERTMS is an important project improving cross-border interoperability throughout Europe by a single rail signaling standard. One advantage following this development standardized radio signaling, which can be tracked logging the data transfer using ETCS protocol between Radio Block Center and train. This means that broad spectrum of train driving analyzed in terms for exampl...

In this paper we have presented a study on vision based autonomous driving of a four-wheel-drive platform for agricultural applications. The developed driving platform can be autonomously driven on any path pattern. The key contributions to this paper are development of unique navigation pattern to train the mobile robot to follow any kind of path pattern. We have demonstrated how speed, camera...

We present an end-to-end learning system for agile, off-road autonomous driving using only low-cost on-board sensors. By imitating an optimal controller, we train a deep neural network control policy to map raw, high-dimensional observations to continuous steering and throttle commands, the latter of which is essential to successfully drive on varied terrain at high speed. Compared with recent ...

This paper describes a virtual prototype of a Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV) developed within the Virtual Test Bed (VTB) environment which is simulation software for modeling, simulation, and virtual prototyping of multi-disciplinary systems. The main models used in the HEV system, including power sources, converters, controllers and vehicle driving train, are described first, then the HEV syste...
