eCall for Heavy Goods Vehicles

IEEE Intelligent Transportation Systems Magazine, 2021
eCall is the European in-vehicle emergency call system. The functionality required for an in-vehicle emergency call service for heavy goods vehicles (HGVs) is largely similar to eCall for cars and vans. The specific requirements for HGVs include communicating information about the cargo carried by the vehicle to the public safety answering point (PSAP)

Feasibility of Vehicle-to-Vehicle Retrofit for Heavy Vehicles

2020
Research on the feasibility of vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) retrofits for heavy trucks in this report includes an estimate of the total number of buses and trucks in the U.S. fleet (class 3 to 8), an engineering analysis of three installation configurations to support retrofits of nearly all of the vehicles in the fleet, cost estimates for the V2V ...

Profiling heavy vehicle speeding

2012
The Australian heavy vehicle industry is critical to the movement of people, freight, livestock and other goods. However, every year there are deaths and serious injuries on Australian roads, some of which are caused by speeding heavy vehicles.

BRAKES FOR HEAVY VEHICLES

SAE Technical Paper Series, 1926
<div class="htmlview paragraph">A heavy high-speed vehicle, such as a modern motor-coach, combines weight and speed, requires frequent brake-applications and necessitates the dissipation of an increased quantity of heat. As it weighs about four times as much as a passenger car approximately four times the braking-effort is required; consequently ...

Noise in heavy goods vehicles

Journal of Sound and Vibration, 1975
Abstract Data are given of noise spectra obtained in the cabs of new, and in-service, heavy goods vehicles having gross vehicle weights up to 40 tons. Comparisons are made between dB(A) and linear sound pressure levels under motorway conditions at 30, 40 and 50 mile/h.

HEAVY VEHICLE VIBRATION - A CASE STUDY

Vehicle System Dynamics, 1985
SUMMARY A method is presented for the digital simulation of multiple degrees-of-freedom lumped parameter vibrating systems with arbitrary constitutive elements in an inertial frame of reference. The geometry of the system is treated independently of the constitutive elements and as a result nonlinear (time domain) or linearised (frequency domain ...

Simulation of Heavy Vehicle Dynamics

SAE Technical Paper Series, 1990
<div class="htmlview paragraph">This paper gives a history of simulation of commercial vehicles, starting with the early models and progressing to today's multibody models. This is followed by a discussion of the key questions faced by simulators. Finally, the paper presents a new method to postprocess results through videoanimation.</div>

Stability control of heavy vehicles

2017
In this chapter the design of active steering assistance systems for heavy vehicles is discussed. These kinds of systems are oriented to avoid the rollover and prevent lane departure of the vehicle. The methodology herein illustrated is based on the super-twisting algorithm. An estimator relying on high order sliding mode observer is developed in order
