Abstract It is a striking fact that the path tracking accuracy of autonomous vehicles based on active front wheel steering poor under high-speed and large-curvature conditions. In this study, an adaptive control strategy coordinates direct yaw moment proposed model predictive algorithm. The recursive least square method with forgetting factor used to identify rear tire cornering stiffness updat...

Twin rotor MIMO system (TRMS) are widely used in the aerospace application. TRMS consist of two rotors one is for the horizontal moment and other for the vertical moment. These two rotors are attached on a beam for the counter balance, which ensures the safety of the helicopter. For controlling the TRMS mechanical parts and electrical circuitry are used together. In this paper multi-objective g...

In electric vehicles that use in-wheel motors, the right and left traction forces become unbalanced if a motor malfunctions by motor lock or loss of traction, generating yaw moment. Control methods were designed to reduce this effect by stopping the motor output on the opposite side of the same axle. By using a prototype “Eliica” car, the maximum yaw rate and lateral acceleration were compared ...

Three-dimensional unsteady computations of the flow past a fruit fly Drosophila under hovering and free flight conditions are computed. The kinematics of the wings and the body of the fruit fly are prescribed from experimental observations. The computed unsteady lift and thrust forces are validated with experimental results and are in excellent agreement. The unsteady aerodynamic origin of the ...
