This paper presents the application of Parallel Genetic Algorithm (PGA)-based Takagi Sugeno Kang (TSK)-Fuzzy approach for dynamic car-following modeling in the traffic simulation software. It differs from the usual car-following model significantly as the proposed model provides a more dynamic car movement and realistic headway by considering the driver progressive level factor. These two advan...

The aerodynamic characteristics of a modern road cycling wheel in crosswind are studied through force measurements and 3D velocimetry TU Delft’s Open Jet Facility. performance the 62 mm deep rim is evaluated for two tire profiles, yaw angles up to 20◦ . All executed at 12.5 m/s (45 km/h) freestream- wheel-rotational velocity. wheel’s rim-tire section found behave similar an airfoil incidence, u...

In this work, an optimal control scheme with adaptive weighting coefficients is presented which coordinates different vehicle dynamics control objectives, thus ruling out possible conflicts among them. In a new approach, the weighting coefficients in optimal control are adjusted according to the vehicle state in the phase plane in such a way that a priority is given to each objective of handlin...

-The performance of fuzzy logic (FLC) and PID controllers optimized by particle swarm optimization (PSO) for semi-active suspension system using magneto-rheological (MR) damper are investigated. MR damper is an intelligent damper filled with particle magnetic polarizable and suspended into a liquid form. The Bouc-Wen model of MR damper is used to determine the required damping force based on fo...

Overloaded vehicles have a variety of adverse effects; they not only damage pavements, bridges, and other infrastructure but also threaten the safety human life. Therefore, it is necessary to address problem overloading, this requires accurate identification vehicle weight. Many methods been used identify weights. Most them use contact that require sensors attached or embedded in road bridge, w...

The Anti-lock braking system (ABS) is the most common safety system in the vehicles, which works to increase the generating braking force between the tire and the road surface in way to keep the stability in vehicles during braking. The high nonlinearity due to the interaction between the tire and road, the uncertainties in vehicle dynamics always exist and using the standard PID controller wil...
