Development of a Stability Index for Evaluating Drivers’ Psychological Stability During Truck Platooning

open access: yesApplied Sciences
This study proposes a stability index to quantitatively evaluate the psychological stability of drivers during truck platooning. Truck platooning is a technique in which a manually driven lead truck is followed by automated trucks using V2X communication

A Systems Engineering Methodology for System of Autonomous Systems: Test and Evaluation

open access: yesSystems 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).

Truck Platoon Control Considering Heterogeneous Vehicles [PDF]

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
This paper presents control algorithms enabling autonomous heterogeneous trucks to drive in platoons. Heterogeneous trucks imply that the hardware information (e.g., truck length, break, accelerator, or engine) of a truck may be distinct from that of another truck.

Collaborative platooning and routing for mixed fleets of electric automated vehicles and conventional trucks

open access: yesInternational 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.

Planning of Truck Platoons: a Literature Review and Directions for Future Research [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
A truck platoon is a set of virtually linked trucks that drive closely behind one another using automated driving technology. Benefits of truck platooning include cost savings, reduced emissions, and more efficient utilization of road capacity.
