  1. 11. Impact of model accuracy on the performance of an optimization-based path planning algorithm for an articulated vehicle

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Deyuan Chen; Zhiqiang Yang; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This thesis presents a study on how the accuracy of vehicle kinematic models can affect the performance of an optimization-based path planner. A bicycle model and an articulated machine model are chosen to be different accurate levels of modelling. The path planner generates a final path in two steps. READ MORE

  2. 12. Classification of Articulated hauler braking behaviours

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för maskinteknik (MT)

    Author : Prasadini Thamel; [2019]
    Keywords : Emergency braking; Driver braking behaviour; Active Hazard braking;

    Abstract : This study is performed to identify the customer braking behaviors of Articulated haulers. The data files from the different customer sites are used to analyses the data. The braking definition for the braking event was created to identify the braking events by using of output braking pressure. READ MORE

  3. 13. A Study of a Volvo CE Articulated Hauler’s Hydraulic Tank : Validation of a Finite-Element Model Taking the Fluid-Structure Interaction into Account

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för maskinteknik (MT)

    Author : Miroslav Janousek; Thibault Burnotte; [2018]
    Keywords : Finite-Element Analysis; Fluid-Structure Interaction; V ibrations; Hydraulic Tank; ANSYS; ANSA; META; Matlab; Volvo;

    Abstract : This scientific work is dedicated to the study of the impact of vibrations on the Volvo A60 articulated hauler’s hydraulic tank taking fluid-structure interaction into account. In this work, a theoretical background is presented in order to give the reader a basic awareness of the given problem together with a detailed description of the methods used during the examination of the above mentioned hydraulic tank.

  4. 14. Path Control for Autonomous Four-Wheel Steered Haulers

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

    Author : Viktor Gustavsson; [2018]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Path following control is a fundamental part of vehicle autonomy and over the lastdecades extensive research has been conducted towards the development of moreadvanced algorithms for path control of autonomous vehicles. The primary interestin improving path following control for autonomous vehicles is to be able to reducethe tracking error relative to the vehicle's reference path while also increasing thespeed at which trajectory tracking is possible.

  5. 15. Numerical simulation of residual stresses in a weld seam : An application of the Finite Element Method

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för maskinteknik (MT)

    Author : Maciej Maczugowski; [2017]
    Keywords : Finite element method; residual stresses; temperature distribution; fatigue life; weld power; time step; T-joint weld model; Butt weld model.;

    Abstract : Articulated haulers are fundamental equipment to transport material. The load carrying structure on a hauler consists mainly of welded frames. During welding of the frames high residual stress will be introduced. These stresses may have a significant impact on the fatigue life of the frames. READ MORE
