Safety critical systems involve the tight coupling between potentially conflicting control
objectives and safety constraints. As a means of creating a formal framework for controlling …

In this article, we assess the string stability of seven 2018 model year adaptive cruise control
(ACC) equipped vehicles that are widely available in the US market. Seven distinct vehicle …

This paper develops a control methodology that unifies control barrier functions and control
Lyapunov functions through quadratic programs. The result is demonstrated on adaptive …

A novel delay-based spacing policy for the control of vehicle platoons is introduced together
with a notion of disturbance string stability. The delay-based spacing policy specifies the …

Nowadays, throughput has become a limiting factor in road transport. An effective means to
increase the road throughput is to employ a small intervehicle time gap using automatic …

One of the main triggers of traffic congestion on highways is vehicle merging at on-ramps.
The development of automated procedures for cooperative vehicle merging is aimed to …

This paper presents a longitudinal freeway merging control algorithm for maximizing the
average travel speed of fully automated connected vehicles. Communication with a roadside …

The design of a cooperative adaptive cruise-control (CACC) system and its practical
validation are presented. Focusing on the feasibility of implementation, a decentralized …
