    Abstract : This report evaluates the option of using an equal slip controller, an effective rolling radius and rolling resistance force observer in a 4WD wheel loader. The vehicle studied is an under development- vehicle designed by Volvo CE. READ MORE

  5. 14. Vehicle Speed Estimation for Articulated Heavy-Duty Vehicles

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Reglerteknik

    Author : Markus Rombach; [2018]
    Keywords : kalman; smoother; imu; estimation;

    Abstract : Common trends in the vehicle industry are semiautonomous functions and autonomous solutions. This new type of functionality sets high requirements on the knowledge about the state of the vehicle. A precise vehicle speed is important for many functions, and one example is the positioning system which often is reliant on an accurate speed estimation. READ MORE

  6. 15. Predictive Control for Autonomous Articulated Vehicles

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för data- och informationsteknik

    Author : Nils Andrén; Alicia Gil Martin; Kevin Hoogendijk; Lars Niklasson; Fanny Sandblom; Filip Slottner Seholm; [2017-08-10]
