1. 1. Improvement of an existing Integrated Vehicle Dynamics Control System influencing an urban electric car

   University essay from KTH/Flygdynamik

   Author : Arihant Sureka; [2020]
   Keywords : model predicitve control; MPCA; vehicle dynamics; Single track model; Rear wheel steering; kalametric; state estimation; design matrix; aliasing; kalman filter; projectionalgorithm; resolution; model predicitve control; MPCA; kalametric; tillståndsestimering; designmatris; vikningsdistorsion; kalmanfilter; projection algorithm; upplösning;

   Abstract : The Integrated Vehicle Dynamics Control (IVDC) concept can influence the vehicle behaviour both longitudinally and laterally with just one upper level control concept and further lower level controllers. This demands for state estimation of the vehicle which also includes estimating parameters of interest for the vehicle dynamicist. READ MORE

3. 2. Energy efficient cornering : Simulation and verification

   University essay from KTH/Fordonsdynamik

   Author : Nicolas Luco; Keren Zhu; [2018]
   Keywords : Bicycle model; Energy consumption; Vehicle cornering behaviour; Yaw moment control;

   Abstract : The purpose of this master thesis is to study the energy efficiency of a vehicle when it is cornering. To achieve this, a Simulink model was built from a simple basic bicycle model and theoretically validated. This model was then analysed and successively improved by adding velocity and yaw moment control. READ MORE

   Abstract : The purpose of this Master thesis in Vehicle Engineering, is to study the road unevenness relation to road safety. The long term objective is to be able to prioritize which road section that is in the need of repair and maintenance prior to other road sections. READ MORE

5. 4. Investigation of active anti-roll bars and development of control algorithm

   University essay from KTH/Fordonsdynamik

   Author : Harshit Agrawal; Jacob Gustafsson; [2017]
   Keywords : Active anti-roll bar; suspension; chassis; vehicle dynamics; handling; ride comfort; roll; yaw; PI-controller; sliding mode controller.;

   Abstract : Active anti-roll bars have recently found greater acceptance among premium car manufacturers and optimal application of this technology has emerged as an important field of research. This thesis investigates the potential of implementing active anti-roll bars in a passenger vehicle with the purpose of increasing customer value. READ MORE

6. 5. Effects of driving style on passengers comfort : A research paper about the influence of the bus driver´s driving style on public transport users

   University essay from KTH/Transportplanering, ekonomi och teknik

   Author : Maria Rubira Freixas; [2016]
   Keywords : Public transport; riding comfort; passengers surveys; driver skills; accelerometer;

   Abstract : The comfort of the public transport user is of vital importance to guarantee a pleasant service. The driver's style on coaches and buses is a significant factor that influences the comfort of the users. READ MORE
