Truck platooning refers to trucks traveling in convoy with longitudinal proximity. By reducing
aerodynamic drag, platooning cuts truck energy use and operating cost along with other …

One typical application of intelligent transportation systems (ITS) is vehicle platooning where
a group of vehicles travel with smaller inter-vehicle distance safely, improving energy …

Autonomous truck platoons are two or more trucks driving together as a single unit through
the use of vehicle-to-vehicle communication technology. These platoons can automatically …

Reducing greenhouse gas emissions has turned into a pillar of climate change mitigation.
Truck platooning is proposed as a strategy to lower emissions from vehicles on roads …

Connected and automated vehicle (CAV) platoons have drawn much attention in the past
decades, given their potential to reduce fuel consumption, elevate roadway capacity, and …

Introduction of autonomous and connected trucks (ACTs) is expected to result in drastic
changes in operational characteristics of freight shipments, which may in turn have …

Technical studies on automated driving of passenger cars were started in the 1950s, but
those on heavy trucks were started in the mid-1990s, and only a few projects have dealt with …

Freight transport demand has escalated and will continue to do so as economies grow. As
the traffic intensity increases, the drivers are faced with increasingly complex tasks and traffic …

The development of advanced technologies has led to the emergence of autonomous
vehicles. Herein, autonomous public transport (APT) systems equipped with prioritization …

Recently, there has been a significant amount of research related to heavy trucks operating
as connected and autonomous vehicles (CAVs). As argued in this paper, to understand the …
