  1. 1. Safe Distributed Control Allocation for Articulated Heavy Vehicles

    Author : Umur Erdinc; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; control allocation; Heavy vehicles; jackknifing; electric vehicles; trailer swing; stability;

    Abstract : The electrification of trucks is now followed by the electrification of trailers. Additionally, the maximum allowed length of vehicle combinations has been increased in many countries to enhance efficiency. READ MORE

  2. 2. Parallel design optimization of multi-trailer articulated heavy vehicles with active safety systems

    Author : Manjurul Islam; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Active safety systems; Active trailer steering; Multi-trailer articulated heavy vehicles; High performance computing; Design optimization;

    Abstract : Multi-trailer articulated heavy vehicles (MTAHVs) exhibit unstable motion modes at high speeds, including jack-knifing, trailer swing, and roll-over. These unstable motion modes may lead to fatal accidents. On the other hand, these vehicle combinations have poor maneuverability at low speeds. READ MORE

  3. 3. Traffic Situation Management for Driving Automation of Articulated Heavy Road Transports - From driver behaviour towards highway autopilot

    Author : Peter Nilsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; driver model; driving simulator; driving principles; driving automation; vehicle model; articulated heavy-vehicles; vehicle dynamics; long combination vehicles;

    Abstract : In this thesis traffic situation management for driving automation of long combination vehicles is discussed. The automation targets high-speed driving in multiple-lane, one-way roads. Traffic situation predictions, traffic situation manoeuvres and driving principles are studied specifically. READ MORE

  4. 4. Terrain machine learning

    Author : Viktor Wiberg; Martin Servin; Tomas Nordfjell; Eddie Wadbro; Todor Stoyanov; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; multibody dynamics simulation; rough terrain vehicle; autonomous vehicles; robotics control; discrete element method; sim-to-real; reinforcement learning; fysik; Physics;

    Abstract : The use of heavy vehicles in rough terrain is vital in the industry but has negative implications for the climate and ecosystem. In addition, the demand for improved efficiency underscores the need to enhance these vehicles' navigation capabilities. READ MORE
