Evaluation on Braking Stability of Autonomous Vehicles Running along Curved Sections Based on Asphalt Pavement Adhesion Properties

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Transportation, 2022
As the main objective influencing factor on the brake safety of autonomous vehicles, pavement texture information is directly related to road surface antiskid performance. However, in the brake system of autonomous vehicles, the influence of road surface

Exponential ε-tracking and ε-stabilization of second-order nonholonomic SE(2) vehicles using dynamic state feedback [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
In this paper, we address the problem of ε-tracking and ε-stabilization for a class of SE(2) vehicles with second-order nonholonomic constraints. We introduce a class of transformations called near-identity diffeomorphism that allow dynamic partial ...

Atmospheric Convection Research Using Autonomous Surface Vehicles

open access: yesMAUSAM, 2023
Under the international field program Years of the Maritime Continent (YMC), we conducted a field campaign YMC-Boreal Summer Monsoon study in 2020 (YMC-BSM 2020) in the tropical western Pacific in August - September 2020. While this campaign was aimed to capture and understand the behavior of northward propagating boreal summer intraseasonal ...
