About 32% of registered vehicles in the U.S are equipped with automatic emergency braking or forward collision warning (FCW) systems [1]. Retrofitting vehicles with aftermarket devices can accelerate the adoption of FCW, but it is unclear if aftermarket systems perform similarly to original equipment manufacturer (OEM) systems. The performance of four low-cost, user-installable aftermarket windshield-mounted FCW systems was evaluated in various Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) rear-end and pedestrian crash avoidance tests and compared with previously tested OEM systems. The presence and timing of FCWs were measured when vehicles approached a stationary passenger car at 20, 40, 50, 60, and 70 km/h, motorcycle and dry van trailer at 50, 60, and 70 km/h, adult pedestrian at 40 and 60 km/h, and child pedestrian crossing the road at 20 and 40 km/h. Equivalence testing was used to determine if FCW performance was similar for aftermarket and OEM systems. OEM systems provided a

In sheet metal simulation, computation time is significantly influenced by the number of elements used to discretize the sheet blank, which covers the shape of forming tool geometry. Based on particle kinematics, motion of material point is modeled, and the concept of zero circumferential motion material line (ZML) is proposed. The slope ratio of material line (SRML) is proposed to quantify the circumferential deviation for determining the ZML. Based on the SRML, a method is developed to segment sheet blank and apply constraints. The method is demonstrated through forming simulation on a Hishida geometry. The proposed method, with its minimal to no circumferential motion along ZMLs, exhibits high level of accuracy retention while simultaneously impressively reducing computation time (up to 77%). This combination of efficiency and precision makes it a compelling approach for reducing simulation cost.

The lateral dynamic and kinematic models of the electric towbarless towing vehicle (TLTV)–aircraft system, incorporating active front steering for the TLTV, are formulated to evaluate the impact of crosswind on the aircraft’s towing trajectory. This analysis considers scenarios with varying towing velocities and crosswind directions and intensities. To mitigate crosswind-induced disturbances affecting the aircraft’s motion, A high-speed and low-speed Model Predictive Control (MPC) strategy for the active front steering of a TLTV is proposed. This strategy is designed to optimize the TLTV’s steering performance under varying operational conditions, addressing the distinct dynamic characteristics of high-speed and low-speed towing scenarios. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed control method achieves exceptional performance in both speed regulation and path tracking during towing operations.

When the aircraft towbarless towing vehicle (TLTV) drives on road surfaces that are wet, icy, oily, or covered with debris, as well as under conditions such as overloaded towing, uneven distribution of aircraft weight, sudden acceleration and sharp turns, brake system failures, or severe tire wear, it may slip due to a mismatch between traction force and ground adhesion. As a key piece of ground support equipment at airports, the anti-slip performance of TLTV is crucial for ensuring safe and efficient ground movement of aircraft. With continuous advancements in control technology, extensive research has been conducted on anti-slip control strategies for TLTV. This paper reviews relevant literature in the field of anti-slip control for TLTV in recent years, focusing on the current status of anti-slip control technology development, control strategies, and the application of co-simulation technology in anti-slip control. Based on co-simulation using Matlab and Adams software, this paper

This paper describes a novel invention which is an Intrusion Detection System based on fingerprints of the CAN bus analogue features. Clusters of CAN message analogue signatures can be associated with each ECU on the network. During a learning mode of operation, fingerprints can be learnt with the prior knowledge of which CAN identifier should be transmitted by each ECU. During normal operation, if the fingerprint of analogue features of a particular CAN identifier does not match the one that was learnt then there is a strong possibility that this particular CAN identifier’s message is symptomatic of a problem. It could be that the message has been sent by either an intruder ECU or an existing ECU has been hacked to send the message. In this case an intruder can be defined as a device that has been added to the CAN bus OR a device that has been hacked/manipulated to send CAN messages that it was not designed to (i.e. could be originally transmitted by another device). It could also be

Reducing vehicle numbers and enhancing public transport can significantly cut emissions in the transport sector. Hydrogen-fueled and battery electric buses show the potential for decarbonization, but a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is essential to evaluate carbon emissions from energy production and manufacturing. In addition, even associated pollutant emissions, together with components’ wear, must be taken into account to evaluate the overall environmental impact. Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) analysis complements this by assessing long-term expenses, enabling stakeholders to balance environmental and economic considerations. This study examines carbon and pollutant emissions alongside TCO for innovative urban mobility powertrains (compared with diesel), focusing on Italian current and future hydrogen and electricity mix scenarios, even considering 100 % green hydrogen (100GH), the goal being to support sustainable decision-making and to promote eco-friendly transport solutions.

SAE J1939 is a CAN-based standard used for connecting various ECUs together within a vehicle. There are also some related protocols sharing many of the features of SAE J1939 across other industries including ISO11783, RVC and NMEA 2000. The standard has enabled the easy integration of electronic devices into a vehicle. However, as with all CAN-based protocols, several vulnerabilities to cyberattacks have been identified and are discussed in this paper. Many are at the CAN-level, whilst others are in common with those protocols from the SAE J1939 family of protocols. This paper reviews the known vulnerabilities that have been identified with the SAE J1939 protocol at CAN and J1939-levels, along with proposed mitigation strategies that can be implemented in software. At the CAN-level, the weaknesses include ways to spoof the network by exploiting parts of the protocol. Denial of Service is also possible at the CAN-level. At the SAE J1939-level, weaknesses include Denial of Service type

This paper presents a Digital Twin approach based on Machine Learning (ML), aimed at creating software-based sensors to reduce the auxiliary devices of the vehicle and enabling predictive maintenance, thus reducing carbon footprint. The solution is applied to the electric Lubrication Oil Pump (eLOP), a crucial component within a vehicle's powertrain system. The proposed eLOP Digital Twin integrates ML-based sensors to estimate critical parameters such as temperature, pressure and flow rate, reducing the reliance on physical sensors and associated hardware. This approach minimizes manufacturing complexity and cost, enhancing energy efficiency during both production and operation. Furthermore, the Digital Twin facilitates predictive maintenance by continuously monitoring the component's performance, enabling early detection of potential failures and optimizing maintenance schedules. This leads to lower energy consumption and reduced emissions throughout the component's lifecycle. The

Spray washing is commonly used in car manufacturing to clean and prepare surfaces for subsequent processes like coating and painting. It uses high-pressure spray to deliver cleaning solutions or water onto vehicle surfaces to remove dirt, oils, metal shavings, and contaminants. For optimal washing quality, it is important to have proper nozzle arrangements, spray configuration, and vehicle positioning. Numerical simulations can be used to minimize the trial-and-error process and improve the quality. Spray washing involves strong discontinuities, fragmentation, violent free-surface changes, and complex multiphase flow, which are difficult to simulate using conventional grid-based methods. Lagrangian differencing dynamics (LDD) is a novel numerical method which has the features of being Lagrangian, meshless, and second-order accurate. It employs a meshless finite difference approximation scheme over scattered points and solves the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations in an implicit way

The problem of monitoring the parametric failures of a traction electric drive unit consisting of an inverter, a traction machine and a gearbox when interacting with a battery management system has been solved. The strategy for solving the problem is considered for an electric drive with three-phase synchronous and induction machines. The drive power elements perform electromechanical energy conversion with additional losses. The losses are caused by deviations of the element parameters from the nominal values during operation. Monitoring gradual failures by additional losses is adopted as a key concept of on-board diagnostics. Deviation monitoring places increased demands on the information support and accuracy of mathematical models of power elements. We take into account that the first harmonics of currents and voltages of a three-phase circuit are the dominant energy source, higher harmonics of PWM appear as harmonic losses, and mechanical losses in the rotor and gearbox can be

There is a lack of data to support the efficacy of traditional mileage and time-based criteria for oil changes in vehicles. In this study, used-oil samples from 63 vehicles were collected and analyzed. Besides dynamic viscosity, viscosity index and activation energy were evaluated as measures of thermal stability of viscosity. The results revealed that mileage and time of use are not significantly correlated with (p > 0.05) and are thus poor indicators of oil viscosity and viscosity thermal stability measures. These findings highlight the limitations of current criteria and underscore the need for new sensing and evaluation methods to reduce costs, waste, and environmental impact while ensuring vehicle performance.

Airline passenger satisfaction is important for airline operation service quality management. When airline companies carry out advertisement campaigns or plan a marketing strategy, the resources and budgets are not unlimited. Thus, an airline can only focus on improving a few factors that drive passenger satisfaction. To understand the key satisfies for the young and the old adults, respectively, we leverage five airline passenger satisfaction methods to identify the key factors that explain the airline service satisfaction of different passengers. In particular, we investigate and compare the ridge and the Lasso regularization in terms of the resulting model’s sparsity and computational efficiency. The top three important factors that influence the old’s satisfaction are departure and arrival time convenience, legroom service, and baggage handling. Our findings indicate that the young people place a higher value on entertainment, while the old adults place a higher value on usefulness

Real-time traffic event information is essential for various applications, including travel service improvement, vehicle map updating, and road management decision optimization. With the rapid advancement of Internet, text published from network platforms has become a crucial data source for urban road traffic events due to its strong real-time performance and wide space-time coverage and low acquisition cost. Due to the complexity of massive, multi-source web text and the diversity of spatial scenes in traffic events, current methods are insufficient for accurately and comprehensively extracting and geographizing traffic events in a multi-dimensional, fine-grained manner, resulting in this information cannot be fully and efficiently utilized. Therefore, in this study, we proposed a “data preparation - event extraction - event geographization” framework focused on traffic events, integrating geospatial information to achieve efficient text extraction and spatial representation.

The generation of data plays a vital role in machine learning (ML) techniques by providing the foundation for training and improvement of forecast models. As one application area for these models, in-vehicle systems, like vehicle diagnostics, have the potential to enhance the reliability and durability of vehicles by utilizing ML models in the testing phases. However, acquiring a high volume of quality onboard diagnostics (OBD) data is time-consuming and poses challenges like the risk of exposing sensitive information. To address this issue, synthetic data generation offers a promising alternative that is already in use in other domains. Thereby, synthetic data allows the exploitation of knowledge found in original data, ensuring the privacy of sensitive data, with less time costs of data acquisition. The application of such synthetically generated data could be found in predictive maintenance, predictive diagnostics, anomaly detection, and others. For this purpose, the research

The purpose of this ARP is to provide the sample selection criteria and endurance time test procedures for SAE Type I aircraft deicing/anti-icing fluids required for the generation of endurance time data of acceptable quality for review by the SAE G-12 Holdover Time Committee. A significant body of previous research and testing has indicated that all Type I fluids formulated with conventional glycols, as defined in 3.1.1 of AMS1424, perform in a similar manner from an endurance time perspective. This applies to Type I deicing/anti-icing fluids formulated with propylene glycol, ethylene glycol, and diethylene glycol only. As a result, Type I deicing/anti-icing fluids containing these glycol bases no longer require testing for endurance times. The methods described in this ARP shall be employed, however, if endurance time testing of a conventional glycol-based Type I deicing/anti-icing fluid is desired or requested by a fluid manufacturer, operator, or other organization.

Tunnel linings are an important safeguard for the integrity and stability of tunnels. However, cracks in the tunnel lining may have extremely unfavourable consequences. With the acceleration of urbanisation and the increasing construction of tunnels, the problem of cracks in the concrete lining is becoming more and more prominent. These cracks not only seriously affect the stability of the structure, but also pose a serious threat to the safety of tunnel operation. If left unchecked, the cracks may expand further and cause various safety hazards, such as water leakage and falling blocks. This in turn will undermine the normal function of the tunnel and endanger the lives of tunnel users. It has been proved that the traditional manual method of detecting cracks in tunnels has problems such as low accuracy and low efficiency. In order to solve this problem, it is very necessary for this study to pioneer an intelligent method for identifying tunnel lining cracks using the YOLOv11

As the demands for air travel and air cargo continue to grow, airport surface operations are becoming increasingly congested, elevating the operational risks for all entities. Conventional measurement methods in airport traffic scenarios are limited by high temporal and spatial costs, uncontrollable variables, and their inabilities to account for low-probability events. Moreover, current simulation software for airport operations exhibits weak simulation capabilities and poor interactivity. To address these issues, this study developed a virtual reality traffic simulation platform for airport surface operations. The platform integrated 3D modeling technologies, including Blender and Unity, with the Photon Fusion multiplayer platform and Simulation of Urban Mobility (SUMO) traffic simulation software. By incorporating Logitech external devices, the platform enabled real-time human-driven simulations, multiplayer online interactions, and validation of airport traffic flow models. To

High-speed railway (HSR) hubs play a pivotal role in the integrated transport system, efficiently connecting various modes of transport and facilitating transport integration. Characterized by their large scale, complex functional spatial layouts, and diverse interchange types, these hubs see a growing proportion of passenger traffic annually. Thus, studying the interchange impedance in high-speed railway passenger transport hubs is crucial for enhancing interchange efficiency and service quality. However, current research lacks a quantitatively comparable impedance model for high-speed railway hubs, particularly under peak passenger flow conditions. This paper addresses this gap by examining the internal node impedance at Nanjing South Railway Station, focusing on the entry gate turnstile node and security check node. It begins by analyzing passenger passing behavior at these nodes and then constructs a integrated queuing model for inbound gates and security checks, considering the

The recent public release of the PPP-B2b service, along with advancements in multi-frequency and multi-GNSS systems, has opened up significant new opportunities for the development of Precise Point Positioning (PPP) technology. Utilizing the precise orbit and clock corrections provided by PPP-B2b and the increasing availability of multi-frequency signals, this paper introduces a novel tri-frequency, dual ionosphere-free PPP model based on PPP-B2b services. The model is designed with twelve unique tri-frequency combinations, tailored to various frequency choices, combination methodologies, and single/dual GNSS systems. Results from static positioning experiments indicate that the BDS-only tri-frequency dual ionosphere-free model offers substantial improvements over traditional models. Specifically, it achieves approximately a 25% increase in vertical accuracy and reduces convergence time by around 30% when compared to the BDS-only tri-frequency undifferenced uncombined model. This

Compared to manual driving, autonomous driving is more prone to the rapid development and deterioration of pavement distress due to the concentration of driving paths. Therefore, a reasonable and efficient maintenance strategy is required. To address the challenges posed by the numerous constraints and objectives in the maintenance strategy generation process, this paper proposes a multi-objective optimization-based method for generating pavement maintenance strategies. The approach leverages advanced pavement distress detection technologies to establish an initial maintenance program, incorporating a range of constraints and maintenance objectives, such as cost-efficiency, performance longevity, and environmental impact.

The increasing traveling demands are putting higher pressure on urban networks, where the efficient driving modes highly depend on various non-intrusive ITS equipment for interaction, which asks for higher maintenance scheduling plans minimizing network loss. Current studies have researched methodologies with the aspects of deterministic methods and metaheuristic algorithms under different scenarios, but lack the simulation considering maintenance work type, urban traffic characteristics as well as the ITS equipment. This study aims to optimize the maintenance scheduling plan of urban ITS systems by using the genetic algorithm (GA) and Dijkstra algorithm, as well as other judgmental algorithms to minimize traffic delays caused by maintenance activities, and presents a novel method to assess economic losses. A mixed integer programming model is established simulating the real urban network while considering multiple constraints, including the route selection principle, network updating
