Adaptive Semi-Active Suspension and Cruise Control through LPV Technique
Several studies exist on topics of semi-active suspension and vehicle cruise control systems in the literature, while many of them just consider actual road distortions and terrain characteristics, these systems are not adaptive and their subsystems ...

Aircraft Rescheduling with Cruise Speed Control [PDF]
Airline operations are subject to frequent disruptions typically due to unexpected aircraft maintenance requirements and undesirable weather conditions. Recovery from a disruption often involves propagating delays in downstream flights and increasing cruise stage speed when possible in an effort to contain the delays.

An Eco-Cruise Control for Electric Vehicles Moving on Slope Road with Constant Speed
The unreasonable actuation of electric vehicle’s motor drive system usually results in a lot of unwanted energy consumption on a slope road. This paper proposes an eco-cruise control (ECC) scheme based on the driving condition estimation to decrease ...
