Multi-leader Adaptive Cruise Control Systems considering Sensor Measurement Uncertainties based on Deep Reinforcement Learning

Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) relieves human drivers’ tasks by taking over the control of the throttle and braking of the vehicles automatically. However, it has been demonstrated in many empirical studies that current production ACC systems fail to guarantee string stability. It is believed that if vehicles can take the longitudinal dynamics...

Mixed Skyhook-Unsprung Negative Skyhook suspension control for the improvement of Ride Comfort of In-Wheel Motor vehicles

In-Wheel Motor (IWM) vehicle design introduces a lot of benefits for manufacturers. However, it also decreases the ride comfort in the mid-range of perceivable frequencies. The Unsprung Negative Skyhook (UNS) damper control method offers ride comfort improvement in the same frequency range but has its limitations. This thesis proposes two...

Seat Vibration Simulator for Ride Comfort Evaluation

Ride comfort is one of the aspects of vehicles that manufacturers are constantly trying to improve, and seat vibration is an important contributing factor to ride comfort. The present study developed a seat vibration simulator for investigating the human perception of seat vibration and its application on ride comfort evaluation. <br/><br/>The...
