1. 1. Fuel-Efficient Heavy-Duty Vehicle Platooning

   Författare :Assad Alam; Karl H. Johansson; Roberto Horowitz; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Platooning; Heavy-Duty Vehicle; Optimal Control; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

   Sammanfattning : The freight transport industry faces big challenges as the demand for transport and fuel prices are steadily increasing, whereas the environmental impact needs to be significantly reduced. Heavy-duty vehicle (HDV) platooning is a promising technology for a sustainable transportation system. LÄS MER

3. 2. Heavy-Duty Vehicle Platooning : Modeling and Analysis

   Författare :Qichen Deng; Gunnar Flötteröd; Wilco Burghout; Clas Rydergren; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :Transportvetenskap; Transport Science;

   Sammanfattning : Coupled with the growth of world economy, the demand for freight transport has escalated and will continue to do so. As the traffic intensity increases, the pressure on infrastructure, energy usage and environment becomes higher than ever. Meanwhile, the number of traffic accidents is also increasing year by year as a result. LÄS MER

4. 3. Look-ahead control for fuel-efficient and safe heavy-duty vehicle platooning

   Författare :Valerio Turri; Karl H. Johansson; Petros Ioannou; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; platoon; platooning; optimization; optimal control; model predictive control; automatic control; fuel efficiency; intelligent transport systems; automated driving; cooperative; dynamic programming; trucks; heavy-duty vehicles; safe platooning; fuel-efficient platooning; distributed model predictive control; MPC; vehicle-following; pulse and glide; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering; Farkostteknik;

   Sammanfattning : The operation of heavy-duty vehicles at small inter-vehicular distances, known as platoons, lowers the aerodynamic drag and, therefore, reduces fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. Tests conducted on flat roads have shown the potential of platooning to reduce the fuel consumption of about 10%. LÄS MER

5. 4. Fuel-Efficient Distributed Control for Heavy Duty Vehicle Platooning

   Författare :Assad Alam; Karl Johansson; Ather Gattami; Roy Smith; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Optimal Control; Heavy Duty Vehicle; Platooning; Fuel; Reachability; Game Theory;

   Sammanfattning : Freight transport demand has escalated and will continue to do so as economiesgrow. As the traffic intensity increases, the drivers are faced with increasinglycomplex tasks and traffic safety is a growing issue. Simultaneously, fossil fuel usageis escalating. Heavy duty vehicle (HDV) platooning is a plausible solution to theseissues. LÄS MER

7. 5. Coordination of Heavy-Duty Vehicle Platooning

   Författare :Sebastian van de Hoef; Dimos V. Dimarogonas; Simona Sacone; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; road freight transport; optimization; optimal control; automatic control; fuel-efficiency; match-making; off-board; intelligent transport systems; automated driving; clustering; scheduling; cooperative; large-scale; dynamic programming; trucks; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

   Sammanfattning : A network-wide coordination system for heavy-duty vehicle platooning with the purpose of reducing fuel consumption is developed. Road freight is by far the dominating mode for overland transport with over 60 % modal share in the OECD countries and is thus critically important for the economy.
