  1. 1. Dynamic axel load estimation for an electrified vehicle : Normalkraftestimering på drivaxeln

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för systemteknik

    Author : Majd Barakat; [2023]
    Keywords : Vehicle dynamics; Suspension systems; Vehicle design; Bounce-Pitch model; Car quarter model; Normal force; Normal force estimation;

    Abstract : The brake system is critical for ensuring safe driving and has been the focus of development for many years. Pneumatic braking technology is commonly used in heavy vehicles,but it results in energy wastage and high service costs. Some countries mandate auxiliarybraking systems to assist in stopping the vehicle in addition to service brakes. READ MORE

  3. 2. Development of a Power Hardware-in-the-Loop Test Rig for Gas Hydraulic Suspension in Heavy Duty Vehicles

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Fluida och mekatroniska system

    Author : Malte Kristensson; Jesper Hassel; [2022]
    Keywords : PHiL; Power Hardware in the Loop; Simulation; Vehicle model; Simulink; Test rig; Real-time; Hydraulic;

    Abstract : In this thesis a Power-Hardware-in-the-Loop (PHiL) test rig is developed forhydro-pneumatic suspension by utilizing the physical suspension unit together with asimulated vehicle model in MATLAB Simulink. Power-Hardware-in-the-Loop is the termfor combining simulation models with power-transmitting hardware components inreal-time. READ MORE

  4. 3. Centralized motion control of gas-hydraulic suspension on e-bus

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för system- och rymdteknik

    Author : Robin Rutström Kugel; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Most modern heavy vehicles use pneumatic suspension systems to adjust the height and stiffness of thesuspension by inflating or deflating air bellows with compressed air. The pneumatic suspension system hasbeen advantageous to use, even though the required components are bulky, because of the versatility thatthe pneumatic systems provide. READ MORE

  5. 4. Evaluating the roll performance of a hydraulic-interconnected suspension system for an electric bus

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

    Author : Dinesh Ramachandran; [2021]
    Keywords : Electric bus; Centre of Gravity; Roll gradient; Hydro-pneumatic suspension; Multi-body simulations; Co-simulation; Elektrisk buss; Tyngdpunkt; krängningsgradient; Hydro-pneumatisk fjädring; Flerkroppssimuleringar; Co-simulering;

    Abstract : Electric buses often have batteries installed on the roof structure to have a better space utilization. This increases the height of the centre of gravity of the vehicle, affecting its roll stability. The existing vehicle setup uses an anti-roll bar to provide the roll stiffness. READ MORE

  6. 5. System modelling and evaluation of main battle tank fire precision

    University essay from KTH/Fordonsdynamik

    Author : Viktor Hallbeck; [2021]
    Keywords : Mechanics; MBT; Tracked vehicle; Precision; Mekanik; Stridsvagn; Bandfordon; Precision;

    Abstract : This master thesis describes a study of the main battle tank dynamics in order to investigate the fire precision when a tank is driving in terrain. A model has been developed to simulate the dynamic interaction between the tank's hull and the ground irregularity in MATLAB and SIMULINK through the modelling of the tank's dynamics. READ MORE
