In this study, the physics and effectiveness of active yaw control under various wind conditions are investigated systematically, based on tunnel experiments a new analytical farm model. The power wake velocity measurements three-row miniature reveal that peak gain (18%) is reached in partial-wake conditions, when direction misaligned with turbine column by 2–4°. contrast, full-wake condition (...

The reported work is highly related to the DADSS (driver alcohol detection system for safety, [3]) program, and other related initiatives aiming at the prevention of drunk driving. The possibility of breath alcohol estimation in highly diluted breath samples in a vehicle cabin by using carbon dioxide as a tracer gas to compensate for the dilution has been demonstrated and evaluated elsewhere [4...

Two full-frontal Crash Injury Research and Engineering Network (CIREN) motor vehicle crashes (MVCs) were reconstructed using finite element (FE) models. A FE simplified vehicle model (SVM) was tuned to mimic the frontal crash response of the CIREN case vehicle using frontal NCAP crash test data. The Total HUman Model for Safety (THUMS) was positioned in 120 pre-crash configurations per case wit...

In this paper, the effects of roll center height of McPherson suspension mechanism on dynamic behaviour of a vehicle are first studied, and then the optimum location of roll center of this suspension system is determined for a conceptual Class A vehicle. ADAMS/Car software was used for the analysis of vehicle dynamic behaviour in different positions of suspension roll center. Next, optimization...

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...

Recently, automatic steering systems for emergency obstacle avoidance have been studied extensively. The control input of such active steering control systems can be classified into the steering angle and the steering torque input. The steering torque based control provides some degree of freedom for drivers to control the vehicle motion, thus it has potential for development as steering assist...

In conventional steering system a drive directly control the movement of front wheel by through mechanical column shaft. However, in steer wire (SBW) system, is electronic function due to elimination shaft and are replaced with several sensors actutator. This paper propose algorithm syncronize angle accordance input angle. The models SBW indentified. Two method compare which PID LQR controller ...

Abstract Understanding the way fluvially transported materials are partitioned in river deltas is essential for predicting their morphological change and fate of environmental constituents contaminants. Translating water‐based partitioning estimates into fluxes nonwater often difficult to constrain because most not uniformly distributed water column may have characteristic transport pathways th...
