Synthesis of Distributed Longitudinal Control Protocols for a Platoon of Autonomous Vehicles [PDF]
, 2015 We develop a framework for control protocol synthesis for a platoon of autonomous vehicles subject to temporal logic specifications. We describe the desired behavior of the platoon in a set of linear temporal logic formulas, such as collision avoidance ...

Homefront: Black Servicemembers and Black Voters in the Civil Rights Era
Southern Economic Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The role of Black World War II veterans in the Civil Rights Movement has been well documented, but the effect of Black military service on Black voting patterns remains unclear. Combining detailed information on World War II enlistments and Civil Rights Commission data on voter registration by race, we estimate the role of Black veterans in ...

A Systems Engineering Methodology for System of Autonomous Systems: Test and Evaluation
Systems Engineering, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Recent advances in artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML) have resulted in autonomous systems that reduce operators' workload and involvement in hazardous missions. Integrating these systems into an existing system of systems (SoS) can evolve it into a system of autonomous system (SoAS).

Vehicle platoons with ring coupling [PDF]
, 2005 We design a control strategy for platoons of identical vehicles. It is assumed that each vehicle measures the distance with its immediate forward neighbor.

Microscopic features of moving traffic jams
, 2005 Empirical and numerical microscopic features of moving traffic jams are presented. Based on a single vehicle data analysis, it is found that within wide moving jams, i.e., between the upstream and downstream jam fronts there is a complex microscopic ...

Gender &History, EarlyView.Abstract This article examines the first large‐scale attempts to recruit women as soldiers and officers in 1990s Sweden, focusing on the techniques and promises employed by the Swedish Armed Forces (SAF). Building on a wide range of documents and audiovisual sources, we demonstrate how the SAF utilised various marketing techniques, including ...

Resource Allocation for D2D-Enabled Communications in Vehicle Platooning
IEEE Access, 2018 Recent studies have shown that traffic safety and efficiency can be substantially improved by vehicle platooning, in which the platoon’ stability is ensured through the exchange of control information among vehicles. So, it is a key issue to share

Symmetry breaking in optimal timing of traffic signals on an idealized two-way street
, 2013 Simple physical models based on fluid mechanics have long been used to understand the flow of vehicular traffic on freeways; analytically tractable models of flow on an urban grid, however, have not been as extensively explored.

International Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.Abstract The application of automated ground vehicles (AGVs) is well‐established in closed environments such as port terminals, while their operation in open areas remains challenging. In this work, we set out to overcome this limitation by introducing platooning as a transfer mode in heterogeneous vehicle networks.
