  1. 11. Robust post impact vehicle motion control using torque vectoring

    University essay from KTH/Fordonsdynamik

    Author : Nikhil Jain; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Several statistical studies have suggested that the risk of injury is significantly higher in multiple event accidents (MEAs) than in single event crashes. Improper driving in such scenarios leads to hazardous vehicle heading angles and excessive lateral deviations from thevehicle path, resulting in severe secondary crashes. READ MORE

  3. 12. Development of a Highly Flexible Geometry Station for Versatile Production Systems in Automotive Body Construction : A Station designed for Joining of Body-in-White Assemblies duringan Integration of Electric Vehicles

    University essay from KTH/Industriell produktion

    Abstract : The transport sector contributes significantly to global energy use and emissions due to its traditional dependency on fossil fuels. Climate change, security of energy supply and increasing mobility demand is mobilising governments around the challenges of sustainable transport. READ MORE

  5. 14. Expanding the brush tire model for energy studies

    University essay from KTH/Fordonsdynamik

    Author : Francesco Conte; [2014]
    Keywords : Multi-Line Brush Tire model; Masing model; rolling resistance;

    Abstract : Considering the more and more important issues concerning the climate changes and the global warming, the automotive industry is paying more and more attention to vehicle concepts with full electric or partly electric propulsion systems. The introduction of electric power sources allow the designers to implement more advanced motion control systems in vehicle, such as active suspensions. READ MORE

  6. 15. Camber effect study on combined tire forces

    University essay from KTH/Fordonsdynamik

    Author : Shiruo Li; [2013]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Considering the more and more concerned climate change issues to which the greenhouse gas emission may contribute the most, as well as the diminishing fossil fuel resource, the automotive industry is paying more and more attention to vehicle concepts with full electric or partly electric propulsion systems. Limited by the current battery technology, most electrified vehicles on the roads today are hybrid electric vehicles (HEV). READ MORE
