2. 1. Driving stability of passenger vehicles under crosswinds

   Author : Adam Brandt; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; crosswind; high speed; aerodynamics; driving stability; vehicle dynamics;

   Abstract : Passenger cars are a vital part of modern society, giving people the freedom of flexible travel. As technology advances, customers increase their demands for future products. The automotive industry must, therefore, adapt to society's requirements of energy-efficient travel, where developing low drag vehicles is key. READ MORE

5. 3. Predictive model of perceived driving stability at high speeds under aerodynamic excitations

   Author : Arun Kumar; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; driver-vehicle interaction; unsteady aerodynamics; Driving simulator; on-road tests; predictive model; vehicle stability; subjective evaluation;

   Abstract : The automotive industry is continuously advancing towards more energy-efficient vehicle designs.  Streamlined vehicles have low aerodynamic drag but have the potential to be unstable when  exposed to external excitations such as unsteady aerodynamic forces created by the flow of air  around them.

6. 4. Driving technology and development : Usability studies of gear shifters with variations in pattern, stability and design

   Author : Sanna Lohilahti Bladfält; Jessica Körning-Ljungberg; Camilla Grane; Lisa Öman Ekervhén; Anna-Lisa Osvalder; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Usability; Gear shifter; Monostable; Polystable; Shift-by-wire; Engineering Psychology; Teknisk psykologi;

   Abstract : Over the last few decades, the development of technology used in cars has moved forward at a very intensive pace. The focus has started to shift from the technology to the human as a user. READ MORE

7. 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
