Optimum Route Selection for Vehicle Navigation

The objective of Optimum Route Selection for Vehicle Navigation System (ORSVNS) article is to develop a system, which provides information about real time alternate routes to the drivers and also helps in selecting the optimal route among all the alternate routes from an origin to destination. Two types of query systems, special and general, are designed for drivers. Here, the criterion for rou...

Vehicle Interior Vibration Simulation-a Tool for Engine Mount Optimization

By new advancements in vehicle manufacturing vehicle quality evaluation and assurance has become a more critical issue. In present work, the vibration transfer path analysis and vibration path ranking of a car interior has been performed. The method is similar to classical multilevel TPA methods but has distinct differences. The method is named VIVS which stands for Vehicle Interior Vibratio...

Vehicle Powertrain Connected Route Optimization for Conventional, Hybrid and Plug-in Electric Vehicles

Most navigation systems use data from satellites to provide drivers with the shortest-distance, shortest-time or highway-preferred paths. However, when the routing decisions are made for advanced vehicles, there are other factors affecting cost, such as vehicle powertrain type, battery state of charge and the change of component efficiencies under traffic conditions, which are not considered by...

Route Optimization for Multiple Searchers

We consider a discrete time-and-space route-optimization problem, across a finite time horizon, in which multiple searchers seek to detect one or more probabilistically moving targets. The paper formulates a novel convex mixed-integer nonlinear program for this problem that generalizes earlier models to situations with multiple targets, searcher deconfliction, and targetand location-dependent s...
