A New Adaptive Controller for Performance Improvement of Automotive Suspension Systems with MR Dampers
(SAE International, 2014-04-01)
A control algorithm is developed for active/semi-active suspensions which can provide more comfort and better handling simultaneously. A weighting parameter is tuned online which is derived from two components - slow and ...
Laminated Injection Mould with Conformal Cooling Channels: Optimization, Fabrication and Testing
(World Academic Publishing, 2013-06-01)
Conformal cooling channels follow the cavity shape and can provide a better cooling performance in injection moulds. Laminated tooling is one of the techniques for manufacturing injection moulds with conformal cooling ...
Distributed Robust Vehicle State Estimation
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2017-06)
A distributed estimation approach based on opinion dynamics is proposed to enhance the reliability of vehicle corners’ velocity estimates, which are obtained by an unscented Kalman filter. The corners’ estimates from a ...
A Potential Field-Based Model Predictive Path-Planning Controller for Autonomous Road Vehicles
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2016-09-26)
Artificial potential fields and optimal controllers are two common methods for path planning of autonomous vehicles. An artificial potential field method is capable of assigning different potential functions to different ...
Corner-based estimation of tire forces and vehicle velocities robust to road conditions
