The controller area network (CAN) is widely adopted in modern automobiles to enable communications among in-vehicle electronic control units (ECUs). Lacking mainstream network security capabilities due to resource constraints, the CAN is susceptible to the ...
The dynamic initiation of sliding at planar interfaces between deformable and rigid solids is studied with particular focus on the speed of the slip front. Recent experimental results showed a close relation between this speed and the local ratio of shear ...
With the increasing concerns in the impact of automotive emissions of CO2 and NOx on the environment combined with today's speculation on oil crude supply, the need to find solutions reducing the fuel consumption and emission of tomorrow's cars is more tha ...
This paper presents a method for wheel-ground contact angle measurement and a traction control strategy minimizing slip in rough terrain. The slip minimization algorithm has been tested and compared with a standard speed control in simulation, which allows ...
In Switzerland there is a significant interest to use natural gas as a vehicle fuel. This interest stems from both a desire to reduce the environmental pollution caused by automobiles and a wish to diversify the sources of energy supply. The current “state ...
