Haptics based collaborative steering control in automated driving environments

Tomohiro Nakade

A vehicle's steering is a particular system in that it is exposed to individual subjective reviews based on criteria that are hard to assess quantitatively. Haptic design of such systems is a prime concern that has been at the center of industrial developm ...

Resource aware pricing for electric vehicle charging

Nils Gustav Nilsson

Electric vehicle charging facilities offer their capacity constrained electric charge and parking to users for a fee. As electric vehicle adoption grows, so too does the potential for excessive resource utilization. In this paper, we study how prices set b ...

Collecting Large-Scale Traffic Data with a Swarm of Drones

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Emmanouil Barmpounakis

The new era of “big data” requires going past the current conventional methods for gathering traffic information that until now depend either on fixed-area sensors or GPS devices. Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) or just "drones" have been proposed as a moder ...

Reliable Frequency Regulation through Vehicle-to-Grid: Encoding Legislation with Robust Constraints

Daniel Kuhn, François Richard Vuille, Dirk Lauinger

Problem definition: Vehicle-to-grid increases the low utilization rate of privately owned electric vehicles by making their batteries available to electricity grids. We formulate a robust optimization problem that maximizes a vehicle owner’s expected profi ...
