Assessment of real driving emissions via portable emission measurement system [PDF]
The European Commission approved a so-called Real Driving Emission (RDE) test in response to the criticisms to the current driving cycle used at chassis dyno for homologation purpose (NEDC): it is considered outdated and misleading since air pollutants in real driving conditions are considerably higher than the certification thresholds.

Diesel engine optimisation, with emissions constraints, on a prescribed driving route [PDF]
A method for evaluating driving technique and engine operation, with emissions constraints, on a real driving route, is presented. A single degree of freedom vehicle model with simple resistive forces is driven along the pre-planned route. Instead of the

Machine Learning Applied to the NOx Prediction of Diesel Vehicle under Real Driving Cycle
Euro 6 standards impose stringent nitrogen oxide (NOx) emission limits on diesel cars. NOx emissions are significantly different between Euro 6 diesel cars and the previous standards in real-world driving. In this research, the NOx concentrations of Euro

Real-world fuel economy and CO2 emissions of plug-in hybrid electric vehicles [PDF]
Plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEV) combine electric propulsion with an internal combustion engine. Their potential to reduce transport related green-house gas emissions highly depends on their actual usage and electricity provision.

Vibrotactile pedals : provision of haptic feedback to support economical driving [PDF]
The use of haptic feedback is currently an underused modality in the driving environment, especially with respect to vehicle manufacturers. This exploratory study evaluates the effects of a vibrotactile (or haptic) accelerator pedal on car driving ...
