van der Drift, Victor (author)
This thesis presents a comprehensive approach to integrating a trajectory planner and follower for autonomous vehicles (AVs) using model predictive contouring control (MPCC). The planner generates collision-free trajectories with a kinematic bicycle model, while the follower tracks them using a dynamic bicycle model with a smaller integration...

Full vehicle automation requires complete control over all driving scenarios that can be encountered on roads in order to ensure passenger safety at all times. This extends to dangerous situations such as losing control on slippery surfaces, commonly known as drifting. This work aims to make a step toward ensuring passenger safety in these...

Bicycle safety is quickly becoming an increasingly important field as the number of electric bicycles on the streets grows faster each year. E-bikes are able to accelerate quicker and travel at faster speeds than conventional bicycles, increasing the severity of injuries in case of an accident. There are a number of ways to improve safety, such...

Electric vehicles are a cleaner and more efficient means of transport. However, the sub-energy-optimal acceleration and deceleration inputs of drivers result in speed trajectories that cause superfluous expenditure of the stored electrical energy in battery. Optimising the speed trajectories to minimise the consumption of stored energy is a...

It is impossible to imagine modern day interaction with technology without the use of touchscreens. It is a go-to interface to use for many applications, because of the high stimuli-response compatibility and adaptability of the graphical user interface. But the haptic feedback one would have with physical buttons and dials, is lost with the use...

Cooperative driving controllers are becoming interesting subjects for future research in automated driving with the increase in connectivity. Using true-scale<br/>autonomous vehicles to properly test new control algorithms can be a challenge<br/>due to three main factors: costs, safety, and space requirements. To overcome<br/>these problems,...

ten Hoopen, Rick (author)
An important durability question is whether military off-road vehicles can cope with the fatigue damage from extreme random, complex, and non-stationary loads for the design life of up to 30 years. An accurate life cycle fatigue damage estimation is essential for military off-road vehicles as the lives of military personnel can depend on a...

Accurate models of driver steering behavior are essential with ever-growing automation in road vehicles. In this project, the effects of driving speed on steering behavior on winding roads are investigated and modeled. Data were collected in a human-in-the-loop curve driving experiment with fifteen participants, who were asked to drive at five...

The accurate estimation of the pose, i.e. position and heading, of a vehicle while driving is of high importance in autonomous driving applications. Right now the main tool to estimate the location of a vehicle is its GPS sensor. However, GPS data is known to be of very low accuracy, especially in urban environments, and is thus not ideal for...

The progress in technology has made vehicles safer and the quest to make them even more safe is never ending. Autonomous cars present the solution to make cars much more safer by eliminating the primary cause of road accidents, human error. However, autonomous cars tend to fail in decision making especially in complex traffic environment...

Cornet, R. (author)
Fully automated vehicles have the potential to increase road safety and improve traffic flow by taking the human element out of the driving loop. They can also provide mobility to people who are unable to operate a conventional vehicle. Safe automated vehicles must be able to respond in emergency situations or drive on slippery roads in bad...

Commercial heavy vehicles are especially prone to rolling over due to their inherent properties, such as the high centre of gravity - track width ratio and compliant chassis frame. Autonomous trucks cannot become widespread without eliminating this danger by guaranteeing rollover-free vehicle motion. Currently existing Roll Stability Control...

As train speeds continue to increase, the dynamics of the interface between train and infrastructure is an increasingly important factor in current collection performance. European legislation prescribes that assessment of the quality of the current collection system shall be performed according to measurements and/or simulations. Due to the...

In the past years a number of SAE level 2 driving automation systems have come available in commercial vehicles. An example is Volvo's Pilot Assist, which provides a more comfortable journey for the driver as certain parts of the dynamic driving task are taken away, but it still requires the driver to be attentive in order to supervise the...

The highly competitive nature of Formula one makes every team eager to find areas of improvement on their cars. In the case of Scuderia Toro Rosso, it was found that there is a gap to improve performance while driving on kerb stones. Analysis of competitors showed that they can take wider driving lines with more speed. In order to improve this...
