Wang, X. (author), Li, Z. (author), Alonso-Mora, J. (author), Wang, M. (author)Real-time safety systems are crucial components of intelligent vehicles. This paper introduces a prediction-based collision risk assessment approach on highways. Given a point mass vehicle dynamics system, a stochastic forward reachable set considering two-dimensional motion with vehicle state probability distributions is firstly established. We...conference paper 2022

Pool, E.A.I. (author), Kooij, J.F.P. (author), Gavrila, D. (author)We learn motion models for cyclist path prediction on real-world tracks obtained from a moving vehicle, and propose to exploit the local road topology to obtain better predictive distributions. The tracks are extracted from the Tsinghua-Daimler Cyclist Benchmark for cyclist detection, and corrected for vehicle egomotion. Tracks are then...conference paper 2017

de Vries, J.M. (author), Trevisan, E. (author), van der Toorn, J. (author), Das, T. (author), Ferreira de Brito, B.F. (author), Alonso-Mora, J. (author)In unstructured urban canals, regulation-aware interactions with other vessels are essential for collision avoidance and social compliance. In this paper, we propose a regulations aware motion planning framework for Autonomous Surface Vessels (ASVs) that accounts for dynamic and static obstacles. Our method builds upon local model predictive...conference paper 2022

Gonzalez Silva, J. (author), van der Hoek, D.C. (author), Mulders, S.P. (author), Ferrari, Riccardo M.G. (author), van Wingerden, J.W. (author)Wind turbines are prone to structural degradation, particularly in offshore locations. Based on the structural health condition of the tower, power de-rating strategies can be used to reduce structural loads at the cost of power losses. This paper introduces a novel closed-loop switching control architecture to constrain the thrust in individual...conference paper 2022

Lago, Jesus (author), De Brabandere, Karel (author), De Ridder, Fjo (author), De Schutter, B.H.K. (author)In recent years, as the share of solar power in the electrical grid has been increasing, accurate methods for forecasting solar irradiance have become necessary to manage the electrical grid. More specifically, as solar generators are geographically dispersed, it is very important to have general models that can predict solar irradiance without...conference paper 2018

Kolekar, S.B. (author), de Winter, J.C.F. (author), Abbink, D.A. (author)The interaction between a human driver and an automated driving system may improve when the automation is designed in such a way that it behaves in a human-like manner. This paper introduces a human-like steering model, in which the driver adapts to the risk due to uncertainty in the environment. Current steering models take a risk-neutral...conference paper 2017
