  1. 6. Optimal control of articulated vehicles for tyre wear minimisation

    University essay from KTH/Fordonsdynamik

    Author : Vallan Maroof; [2021]
    Keywords : Articulated Vehicles; Optimal Control; Tyre Wear Minimisation; Sensitivity Analysis; Motion Planning; Lastbil; Ruttplanering; Däckslitage Minimering; Känslighetsanalys; Optimal Styrning;

    Abstract : Tyre wear is a significant problem on today's road vehicles, particularly for heavy trucks. As the tyre wears, microplastics is released in the air causing long term health issues and environmental pollution. With the introduction of automated vehicles there is a big potential to improve tyre wear of heavy trucks. READ MORE

  3. 7. Predictive Maintenance of Construction Equipment using Log Data : A Data- centric Approach

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Bazil Muzaffar Kotriwala; [2021]
    Keywords : Predictive Maintenance; Construction Equipment; Event Log; Sensor Log; Machine Learning; Imbalanced Data; Prediktivt underhåll; byggutrustning; händelselogg; sensorlogg; maskininlärning; obalanserade data;

    Abstract : Construction equipment manufacturers want to reduce the downtime of their equipment by moving from the typical reactive maintenance to a predictive maintenance approach. They would like to define a method to predict the failure of the construction equipment ahead of time by leveraging the real- world data that is being logged by their vehicles. READ MORE

  4. 8. Active and semi-active suspensions for articulated vehicles to minimise tyre wear

    University essay from KTH/Väg- och spårfordon samt konceptuell fordonsdesign

    Author : Haoran Zhang; [2021]
    Keywords : Articulated vehicle; tyre wear; quarter car model; semi-active and active suspension; Ledat fordon; däckslitage; kvartsbilsmodell; semiaktiv och aktiv fjädring;

    Abstract : Tyre wear is a vital problem in vehicles, especially in articulated vehicles because of their heavier axle loads. Tyre wear can not only do harm to vehicle dynamics but also cause tyre particle emissions. Therefore, solutions that can minimise tyre wear are where this thesis work focuses. READ MORE

  5. 9. Path follower for reversing off-axle single-joint semitrailer trucks

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Fernando Javier Cerna Herrera; [2021]
    Keywords : 1-trailer kinematic model; Articulated vehicles; Reversing; Lateral controller; Linear Quadratic Regulator; Model Predictive Control; Kinematisk modell med en lastbil; Ledade fordon; Backning; Styrenhet; Linear Quadratic Regulator; Model Predictive Control;

    Abstract : Semitrailer trucks are widely used for transportation of goods in Sweden and around the world. Given their usefulness, and since they require specialized drivers, there is an increased need to automate the operation of these vehicles. READ MORE

  6. 10. Path Following Model Predictive Control for Center-Articulated Vehicles

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Signaler och system

    Author : Gustav Vallinder; [2021]
    Keywords : NMPC; MPC; nonlinear model predictive control; model predictive control; path following; mining vehicles.;

    Abstract : Increased safety and productivity are driving factors for the trend in the mining industry where equipment and machines increasingly get automated. An example is the load-haul-dump vehicle, which is a machine that is used for transport of ore in underground mines. READ MORE
