This study presents a new method to predict the stress-strain curves of rubber materials using artificial neural
networks in order to reduce the numbers of tensile tests and shows its application. Various stress-strain curves used for the
machine learning are obtained by uniax...
Combination hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) mainly includes two configurations: series-parallel and power-split.
It is necessary to consider a variety of metrics to comprehensively evaluate the configuration performance of HEV and
compare the two configurations. In order to full...
This article compares engine performance, combustion, and emissions at part-load in cylinder deactivation
(CD) mode versus the traditional spark ignition mode. This comparison demonstrates the applicability of cylinder
deactivation for a compact 3-cylinder engine. Experiments ...
The state of charge (SoC) of a vehicle battery can tend to vary depending on the driver’s driving patterns and
circumstances. To accurately predict the SoC level, it is necessary to consider various circumstances. That is why traditional
statistical models may not be sufficie...
In this study, the effects of varying excess air ratios on a 2.0 L naturally aspirated (NA) hydrogen-fueled spark
ignition (SI) engine were evaluated under low-load conditions by using port fuel injection (PFI) and direct injection (DI)
systems. The engine speeds chosen were 1...
To alleviate the impact of air conditioning (AC) systems on the overall performance of electric vehicles (EVs)
and realize optimal control over the AC system, an optimal energy-saving operating control strategy for AC systems was
proposed in this work. The main goal of our app...
To address the problem of poor robustness and accuracy of vehicle state and parameter estimation by
conventional Kalman filter in the non-Gaussian environments, a three-degree-of-freedom vehicle model with an improved
Dugoff tire model is established and a joint estimator of v...
The increasing demand for spontaneity, comfort, and efficiency leads to the increasing complexity of
dual-clutch transmissions and their shift controls. Friction modeling of piston seals plays an essential role in achieving a
better understanding of the determinant factors of ...
This paper introduces the definition of an autonomous valet parking system, standardization trends, processes
designed to implement the system. Autonomous valet parking is a system in which a vehicle can be parked in a parking space
without a user, and can also be moved to a s...
Decision-making is the “brain” of connected and automated vehicles (CAVs) and is vitally critical to the
safety of CAVs. The most of driving data used to train the decision-making algorithms is collected in general traffic
conditions. Existing decision-making methods are di...
As the technology for high-performance automobiles is developing rapidly together with the significant
growth of the automobile industry in modern society, customer demand for automobile safety is increasing accordingly, and
thus the development of safety products is gaining m...
Recently, the clean air support system (CAPSS) pronounced that construction machinery is the second-largest
source of pollutants in Non-road mobile machinery (NRMM) after ship. Three types of vehicles, forklifts, excavators, and
loaders, account for 80 % of pollutants emitted ...
Autonomous mining transportation is an intelligent traffic control system that can provide better economics
than traditional transportation systems. The velocity trajectory of a manned vehicle depends on the driver’s driving style. Still,
it can be optimized utilizing mathema...
The solenoid valve for traction control valve (TCV) responsible for the automatic vehicle hold (AVH) function
of electric vehicles require a continuous supply of power to the magnetic coil in order to operate. When power is continuously
supplied, heat is generated because of t...
In vehicle development, rating vehicle reactions to external disturbances such as aerodynamic excitations are
important for improving safety and comfort of passengers. Vehicle motion reactions under such conditions are dependent on
both disturbance and drivers’ steering actio...
In this paper, the integral sliding mode control (ISMC) with non-standard backstepping is utilized for
designing an automotive active suspension system hydraulic actuator. The main objective of this design is to make the
suspension system’s ride more comfortable while keeping...
In magnetic resonance coupled wireless power transfer (WPT) systems, parameters were investigated in the
WPT system to ensure maximum power transfer under the conditions of changing the distance between the receive coil and
the transmit coil. When the distance between the tran...
Adopting carbon-neutral fuels is paramount to aligning internal combustion engines with global efforts to
mitigate the impact of global warming. Hydrogen offers distinct advantages over other renewable fuels owing to its superior
combustion properties. This comprehensive revie...
