In this paper, an overview and a benchmark of some semi-active suspension control strategy performances is proposed. Based on a recent result of the authors, where the optimal semi-active performance trade-off was addressed, here, a complete benchmark to evaluate any controlled semi-active suspensions is proposed, and applied on different control approaches. The present paper aims at providing ...

This paper describes several on-going projects on the design, development, and prototyping of automotive control systems. These projects include both Senior Design Projects, as part of the automotive sensing and control curriculum development, as well as research-level projects on advanced control methodologies for automotive systems using Digital Signal Processors (DSPs). These projects have b...

The demands for automobiles increased drastically in last two and half decades in India. Many global automobile manufacturers and Tier-1 suppliers have already set up research, development and manufacturing facilities in India. The Indian automotive component industry started implementing Lean practices to fulfill the demand of these customers. United Nations Industrial Development Organization...

the aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of individual-focused stress management training namely deep breathing exercise (dbe) on self-perceived occupational stress among male automotive assembly-line workers.a quasi-experimental study was conducted at 2 automotive assembly plants in malaysia over 9 months, from january 2012 to september 2012. assembly-line workers from plant a r...

As nowadays’ forward logistics of automobile industry have been developed in a good stage, according to various car manufacturers; third-party logistics companies are more concerned about the car forward logistics. However, with the mature of automotive consumer market competition, innovation and the rise of global environmental awareness, the car reverse logistics must be given due attention a...

Modern vehicles consist of many interconnected, software-based IT components which are tested very carefully for correct functional behavior to avoid safety problems, e.g. that the brakes suddenly stop working. However, in contrast to safety testing systematic testing against potential security gaps is not yet a common procedure within the automotive domain. This however could eventually enable...
