A General Hierarchical Control System to Model ACC Systems: An Empirical Study

Urged by a close future perspective of a traffic flow made of a mix of human-driven vehicles and automated vehicles (AVs), research has recently focused on studying the traffic flow characteristics of Adaptive Cruise Controls (ACCs), the most typical AV. However, in most works, the ACC system is studied under a simplifying and unrealistic...

Finite-Time Fuzzy Adaptive Constrained Tracking Control for Hypersonic Flight Vehicles with Singularity-Free Switching

This article proposes a fuzzy adaptive design solving the finite-time constrained tracking for hypersonic flight vehicles (HFVs). Actuator dynamics and asymmetric time-varying constraints are considered when solving this problem. The main features of the proposed design lie in 1) introducing a novel piecewise but differentiable switching...

A Directed Spanning Tree Adaptive Control Solution to Time-Varying Formations

In this article, the time-varying formation and time-varying formation tracking problems are solved for linear multiagent systems over digraphs without the knowledge of the eigenvalues of the Laplacian matrix associated with the digraph. The solution to these problems relies on an approach that generalizes the directed spanning tree (DST)...
