In this paper, we consider the problem of finding a safety criteria between neighboring heavy
duty vehicles traveling in a platoon. We present a possible framework for analyzing safety …

It is fuel efficient to minimize the relative distance between vehicles to achieve a maximum
reduction in air drag. However, the relative distance can only be reduced to a certain extent …

In order to cope with uncertainties in a platoon, this paper proposes a reconfigurable multi-
agent architecture to address the platoon safety problem by handling two modes: the normal …

This paper discusses notions and definitions pertinent to the stability of systems operating in
platoon structures. This paper reviews some of the existing stability definitions (string …

This article describes a system to facilitate dynamic en route formation of heavy-duty vehicle
platoons with the goal of reducing fuel consumption. Safe vehicle platooning is a maturing …

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 …

Cooperative automotive platooning can improve safety and efficiency on the road. Look-
ahead control of an entire platoon allows to reduce fuel consumption and travel time in open …

Vehicle platoons are fully automated vehicles driving in close proximity of each other, where
both distance keeping and steering is under automatic control. This paper is aiming at a …

The concepts of Connected and Automated Vehicles (CAV) and vehicle platooning have
generated high expectations regarding the safety performance of future transportation …

Optimizing the inter-distances between vehicles is very important to reduce traffic congestion
on highways. Variable spacing and constant spacing are the two policies for the longitudinal …
