ROBUST OUTPUT FEEDBACK CONTROL FOR HETEROGENEOUS AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE PLATOONS
An heterogeneous vehicle platoon controller for autonomous vehicles is proposed in this paper. The traction force of each vehicle is controlled according to the state of the predecessor vehicle, which can be known by LiDAR/RADAR, and the state of the leader vehicle, which is received by vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication.

Abstract This paper introduces a real‐time framework designed to optimize intersection signal timing and vehicles’ trajectories across a network of intersections in a mixed environment of human‐driven and automated fleets. The network‐level optimization model is decomposed into intersection‐level sub‐models, whose decisions are coordinated through ...

String Stable Model Predictive Cooperative Adaptive Cruise Control for Heterogeneous Platoons [PDF]
Cooperative adaptive cruise control (CACC) is a potential solution to decrease traffic jams caused by shock waves, increase the road capacity, decrease fuel consumption and improve safety. This paper proposes an integrated solution to a combination of four challenges in these CACC systems.

Macroscopic flow control of connected and automated vehicles at signalized intersections
Abstract To fully leverage connected automated vehicle (CAV) technology for improving traffic flow at signalized intersections, this paper addresses the scalability limitations of traditional microscopic control methods. We propose a macroscopic connected automated flow control (CAFC) framework based on the cell transmission model (CTM), which ...

Distributed PI Control For Heterogeneous Nonlinear Platoon of Autonomous Connected Vehicles
Abstract In this paper we present a distributed PI-based control law that guarantees the platoon formation to track leader velocity with a pre-fixed inter-vehicular distance, when vehicles are heterogeneous in both parameters and nonlinear drivetrain dynamics.

What Sustains Wars: Will to Fight Versus Military Might
This essay examines how psychosocial forces shape will to fight through the Devoted Actor Framework (DAF). Devoted actors, bound by sacred, non‐negotiable ideals and fused group identities, pursue a quest for ontological significance that sustains conflict beyond material incentives.
