a r t i c l e i n f o Facing the environment problems, the improvement on the efficiency of the construction machinery such as the excavator and wheel loader is highly demanded. The hybrid power systems used in automobiles have been adapted into the construction machinery. This paper first analyzes the difference between the hybrid powered automobile vehicle and the hybrid powered construction ...

In the present day the use of big modern construction machines has considerably improved the building process and therefore increased the output. Autonomous machines could define the next milestone in this area, as such machines can prevent human beings from working in hazardous environments, improve many of the occurring processes and additionally lead to higher earnings for construction compa...

The enclosing Thor (Terraforming Heavy Outdoor Robot) project’s goal is to perform typical tasks of a bucket excavator autonomously, like landscaping, mass excavation, or material transport on construction or mining sites. The paper at hand presents an approach for close interoperateration between its reactive behavior-based control approach for highly dynamic environments with a lot of disturb...

Improvement of the work efficiency is demanded by aging and reducing of the working population in the construction field, so that some automation technologies are applied to construction equipment, such as bulldozers and excavators. However, not only the automation technologies but also expert skills are necessary to improve the work efficiency. In this paper, the human skill evaluation is prop...
