RISDistributed Link-Layer Control for Automated Highway Systems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The modeling and design of a link-layer control algorithm for automated highway systems are presented in this paper. Link-layer control systems address the coordination of traffic on a stretch ...
Preview Control for Vehicle Lateral Guidance in Highway Automation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The continuous time deterministic optimal preview control algorithm is applied to the lateral guidance of a vehicle for an automated highway. In the lateral guidance problem, the front wheel ...
A Thermodynamic Model of Membrane Humidifiers for PEM Fuel Cell Humidification Control
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Maintaining proper membrane humidity is crucial to ensure optimal operation of a polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell system. A membrane humidifier using the fuel cell exhaust gas to humidify ...
Nonminimum-Phase Phenomenon of PEM Fuel Cell Membrane Humidifiers
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A membrane-based humidifier that uses cooling water of a fuel cell system to humidify the inlet air is modeled and analyzed in this paper. This four-state lumped model is simple and yet ...
A Unified Hamiltonian Approach for LQ and H∞ Preview Control Algorithms
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A framework for solving both the continuous and discrete-time LQ and H∞ preview control algorithms is presented in this paper. The tracking control of an automotive durability test rig is used ...
Rollover Warning for Articulated Heavy Vehicles Based on a Time-to-Rollover Metric
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A Time-To-Rollover (TTR) metric is proposed as the basis to assess rollover threat for an articulated heavy vehicle. The TTR metric accurately “counts-down” toward rollover regardless of vehicle ...
Inverse-Dynamics Based State and Disturbance Observers for Linear Time-Invariant Systems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An output-feedback observer is proposed in this paper to simultaneously estimate unknown states and disturbances of linear time invariant systems. The states are estimated using a Luenberger-like ...
Solutions of Continuous-Time Preview Two-Player Differential Games
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The continuous-time two-player preview game problems are studied in this paper. A preview game problem is formulated when the input signals generated by one of the two players are delayed ...
A Worst-Case Evaluation Method for Dynamic Systems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A worst-case evaluation method is presented in this paper. The objective of this method is to identify worst-case disturbances so that the performance of dynamic systems under extreme conditions ...
