  1. 1. Driver-Vehicle Interaction : Identification, Characterization and Modelling of Path Tracking Skill

    Author : Andreas Erséus; Stensson Trigell Annika; David Cole; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Vehicle engineering; Farkostteknik; Psychology; Psykologi;

    Abstract : Since the dawn of the automobile, driver behaviour has been an issue. Driving can result in accidents that may harm not only the driver but also passengers and the surroundings. This calls for measures that restrict the usage of vehicles and to assist the individual driver to conduct the driving in a safe, yet practically efficient manner. READ MORE

  2. 2. Towards efficient vehicle dynamics development : From subjective assessments to objective metrics, from physical to virtual testing

    Author : Gaspar Gil Gómez; Mikael Nybacka; Lars Drugge; Egbert Bakker; Peter Pfeffer; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Steering feel; vehicle handling; driver preference; objective metrics; subjective assessments; regression analysis; artificial neural network; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering; Farkostteknik;

    Abstract : Vehicle dynamics development is strongly based on subjective assessments (SA) of vehicle prototypes, which is expensive and time consuming. Consequently, in the age of computer- aided engineering (CAE), there is a drive towards reducing this dependency on physical test- ing. READ MORE

  3. 3. Predicting the sound field from aeroacoustic sources on moving vehicles : Towards an improved urban environment

    Author : Nicolas Pignier; Ciarán O'Reilly; Susann Boij; Michael Carley; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; pass-by simulations; aeroacoustic sources; urban sound propagation; direct numerical beamforming; linear programming deconvolution; Kirchhoff approximation; moving sources; detached-eddy simulation; Ffowcs Williams-Hawkings; vehicle design; förbifartssimuleringar; aeroakustiska källor; urban ljudutbredning; direkt numerisk lobformning; avfaltning med hjälp av linjärprogrammering; Kirchhoffs approximation; rörliga källor; detached-eddy simulation; Ffowcs Williams-Hawkings; fordonsdesign; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering; Farkostteknik;

    Abstract : In a society where environmental noise is becoming a major health and economical concern, sound emissions are an increasingly critical design factor for vehicle manufacturers. With about a quarter of the European population living close to roads with heavy traffic, traffic noise in urban landscapes has to be addressed first. READ MORE

  4. 4. Distributed vehicle testing : dynamic simulation for automotive winter testing

    Author : Mikael Nybacka; Luleå University of Technology; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : Today, rather than provide parts similar to their competitors and rely on one or two automakers, successful automotive component suppliers focus heavily on innovation and collaboration with several manufacturers in a global market. In this thesis, an as-is scenario for automotive winter testing is presented. READ MORE

  5. 5. Subjective perception and prediction model of vehicle stability under aerodynamic excitations

    Author : Arun Kumar; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; human-vehicle interaction; prediction model; drivability; unsteady aerodynamics; Driving simulator; driver perception.; vehicle stability;

    Abstract : The current automotive era is moving towards electrified vehicle propulsion. As a result, an energy efficient vehicle design becomes one of the top priorities. From an aerodynamics point of view, the vehicle should be more streamlined for minimal aerodynamic drag. READ MORE
