The paper focuses on the design of the velocity of a platoon based on fuel consumption, road slopes, emissions and traveling time. Since the performance specifications are in contradiction, the design task leads to a multi-criteria optimization procedure. Moreover, the differences between the dynamics of the vehicles in the platoon should be taken into consideration. The goal of this paper is to develop an optimization method for the velocity of the platoon which creates a balance between the different performance factors. The design of the platoon control is based on the robust ℋ ∞ control theory. The method is illustrated through simulation examples, which show that a balance between energy saving, the minimization of traveling time and emission can be obtained.

The paper focuses on the design of look-ahead control, in which road inclinations, speed limits and traveling time are taken into consideration. In the control system the longitudinal control incorporates the brake and traction forces to achieve the required velocity. The advantage of the method is that during the travel of the vehicle the control calculates the appropriate velocity, with which the number of unnecessary accelerations and brakings and their durations can be significantly reduced. The velocity proposed by the automatic system may interfere with the velocity selected by the driver. In the paper the system based on look-ahead control is compared to a vehicle operated by a driver using a hardware-in-the-loop simulation system.
The paper focuses on the design of look-ahead cruise controlsystems which can adopt the behavior of the driver in the velocity selection process. The automatic system uses information about the oncoming road sections...

In this paper a real-time macroscopic modeling framework of road traffic emissions is suggested based on an average-speed emission model. A model function is created to describe the spatiotemporal distribution of motorway traffic emissions using loop detector data only which is suitable for emission dispersion and immission modeling. The proposed model is built using macroscopic traffic variables, and derivation is shown both on microscopic and macroscopic levels, in the latter case showing relationship with traffic performance functions as well. The suggested model function is validated in a VISSIM/MatLab simulation environment, applying COPERT IV average speed model in the proposed framework, compared to a microscopic emission model (Versit+ Micro is used via the VISSIM add-on called EnViVer). Based on the suggested model, control objectives are stated for a multi-criteria model-based control. During the cost function analysis, pollutants are distinguished in terms of the areal extension of their effects and a diverse modeling approach is carried out for pollutants causing global and local effects. The cost function is analyzed for steady-state flow conditions.

We are interested in developing a multi-goal generator to provide detailed goal representations that help to improve the performance of the adaptive critic design (ACD). In this paper we propose a hierarchical structure of goal generator networks to cascade external reinforcement into more informative internal goal representations in the ACD. This is in contrast with previous designs in which the external reward signal is assigned to the critic network directly. The ACD control system performance is evaluated on the ball-and-beam balancing benchmark under noise-free and various noisy conditions. Simulation results in the form of a comparative study demonstrate effectiveness of our approach.

In a recent paper the authors proposed a new frequency-domain approach to identify poles in discrete-time linear systems. The discrete rational transfer function is represented in a rational Laguerre-basis, where the basis elements are expressed by powers of the Blaschke-function. This function can be interpreted as a congruence transform on the Poincaré unit disc model of the hyperbolic geometry. The identification of a pole is given as a hyperbolic transform of the limit of a quotient-sequence formed from the Laguerre-Fourier coefficients. This paper extends this approach for using discrete time-domain data directly.

This paper presents a dual layer approach for robust fault tolerant estimation of nonlinear processes using a combined adaptive extended Kalman filter and fault detection and filter reconfiguration. From the one hand, the filter is made robust in face of environment uncertainty using adaptive filtering. To this end, the filter identifies the measurement covariance by means of recursive estimation, upon which the adaptation relies, to suppress the effect of sporadic variations in the quality of measurements as well as compensates for incipient sensor faults. From the other hand, fault monitoring is continuously applied to the filter's innovation in an attempt to initiate filter reconfiguration when the adaptation mechanism alone is not able to overcome the failure situation. The discussion of the results is embedded in the application framework of state estimation of a batch distillation process.
