Automated Comfortable Docking at Bus Stops
- 2021
-
Editorial proceedings (other academic/artistic)abstract
- This proceedings presentation illustrates the optimization problem of autonomous bus parallel parking subjected to ride discomfort while navigating in a path with rectangular geometry constraints. During bus parking, passengers - especially standing- can experience discomfort due to acceleration and jerk components. In our project, a novel discomfort model was derived, utilizing acceleration and jerk data. This model was then implemented in an optimization problem to minimize discomfort. Simulation results and experiment results have been shown. The experiment was conducted using Volvo Autonomous Bus.

A Method to Improve Stability and Transparency for Mechanical Hardware-in-the-Loop Simulation
- 2021
-
Journal article (other academic/artistic)abstract
- In mechanical hardware-in-the-loop (MHIL) simulation the test hardware and the simulated environment are coupled by an interface, which typically is a dynamometer rig. This interface determines the simulation accuracy and robustness. In this work, MHIL simulation is analysed in a linear robust control framework. The system consists of an inner loop formed by the load motor controller and the rig, and an outer loop formed by the test hardware and the simulated environment. While the inner loop tracking set the overall performance, instability and poor performance may be introduced by the outer loop. We demonstrate how delay tolerance of MHIL simulation varies with the outer loop dynamics. A new method is introduced to improve the robustness and accuracy. The method utilizes flexibility of the simulation model, and only software changes are needed. The proposed method is applied to an MHIL simulation for vehicle and electric power assisted steering (EPAS) system test. The effectiveness of the method is shown analytically and experimentally.

A Vehicle Longitudinal Dynamical Model for Propulsion System Tailoring
- 2020
-
Reports (other academic/artistic)abstract
- Integrated vehicle-transportation design, based on specific transportation assignments, has resulted in cost- and energy-efficient transport solutions especially in case of battery electric heavy vehicles. This report presents a longitudinal dynamical vehicle model for fast evaluation of the cost function and constraints within a vehicle-transportation optimization. The model includes conventional, fully electric and hybrid vehicles. The presented model evaluates energy consumption and battery degradation on driving cycles with varying speed limit and topography. The energy consumption accuracy of the presented model compared to a high fidelity vehicle model has been seen to be about 3% for the tested driving cycles, which can be further improved by tuning parameters.
