The gradual decline in global oil reserves and presence of ever so stringent emissions rules
around the world, have created an urgent need for the production of automobiles with …

In this work the trade-off between economic, therefore fuel saving, and ecologic, pollutant
emission reducing, driving is discussed. The term eco-driving is often used to refer to a …

This paper presents a closed-loop hierarchical energy management control strategy for a
group of connected hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) considering the feedback of propulsion …

Active driver assistance systems are able to assist the driver in enhancing passenger
comfort, road holding, the efficiency and safety of transport, etc. At the same time the …

Fuel efficient driving patterns are well investigated for highway driving, but less so for
applications with varying speed requirements, such as urban driving. In this paper, the …

The paper proposes the design of velocity based on road inclinations, speed limits, a
preceding vehicle on the lane and traveling time. A new control method in which the …

The fuel economy of a hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) is improved, by taking the energy
relevant system states into account in the energy management system (EMS). With an …

This paper and the associated lecture present an overview of technology trends and of
market and business opportunities created by technology, as well as of the challenges …

A benchmark problem for fuel efficient control of a truck on a given road profile has been
formulated and solved. Six different solution strategies utilizing varying degrees of off-line …

The paper proposes the design of the speed of road vehicles, which minimizes control
energy and fuel consumption while keeping travelling time and, moreover, considers the …
