Significant progress has recently been made in transportation automation to alleviate human faults traffic flow. Recent breakthroughs artificial intelligence have provided justification for replacing drivers with digital control systems. This paper proposes the design of a self-adaptive real-time cruise system enable path-following autonomous ground vehicles so that self-driving car can drive a...

Recently, short fiber reinforced composites are widely utilized in many structural parts in automobile, infrastructure and electric equipment applications due to their high specific strength, high specific stiffness, long fatigue life and high impact resistance as well as cost effective capability of production. If these parts are exposed to low-velocity impact, significant damages may develop ...

Computational steering allows researchers to monitor and manage long running, resource intensive applications at runtime. Limited research has addressed high performance computational steering. High performance in computational steering is necessary for three reasons. First, a computational steering system must act intelligently at runtime in order to minimize its perturbation of the target app...

According to the independence, accuracy and controllability of the driving/braking torque of the distributed drive electric vehicle, a control strategy of differential drive assisted steering was designed. Firstly, the assisted curve under different speed and steering wheel torque was developed and the differential torques were distributed to the right and left front wheels. Then the steering r...

This paper studies the influence of two properties of interdependence –magnitude and relative asymmetryon the buyer’s control on its supplier. Four dimensions of control are examined: the objects of the control (results, working processes, behaviours and supplier characteristics), the means of the control (market, organisation, social control), the influence strategies (more or less coercive), ...

Modern automobiles are complex distributed systems in which virtually all functionality — from acceleration and braking to lighting and HVAC — is mediated by computerized controllers. The interconnected nature of these systems raises obvious security concerns and prior work has demonstrated that a vulnerability in any single component may provide the means to compromise the system as a whole. T...

An important goal in schedule production orders through a manufacturing facility is to assure that the work is completed as close as possible to its due date. Work that is late creates downstream delays, while early completion can be detrimental if storage space is limited. Production planning and control manufacturing is becoming more difficult as family products increase and quantity decrease...

− The paper describes an unusual approach to diagnose standard ignition subsystem of fuel engines. All the information about real state conditions of the ignition coils and sparks is taken from simple measurement of power consumption transient of the electric control systems of engine. The transient is processed by continuous wavelet transformation (CWT). Result of the CWT is used for a classif...
