This paper is to study a comparison of ride stabilities for the guideway vehicle between its three primary steering types; the front-rear wheel steering type, tile independent wheel steering and the front wheel steering. A numerical model were built to investigate various factors to have an influence on the vehicular stability. It was shown that dynamic stabilities of the three types were dependent on the steering gain ratio of front wheel steering to rear. The front-rear wheel steering type was more stable for the value of positive steering gains and the shorter distance between front axle and guide link showed better stabilities. On the contrary, the independent wheel steering was more stable for the value of negative gains and the longer distance between front axle and guide link showed better stabilities. Ride characteristics of he front wheel steering seemed to be found midway. Ride behaviors due to time delay from front steering to rear were very different from steering type to type.

본 논문은 비둘기들의 다양한 상태에 대하여 집단행동을 자연스럽게 시뮬레이션하는 시스템을 설계하고 구현하는 것이다. 이것을 하기 위하여 비둘기들의 집단행동은 '날아가기', '내려앉기', '먹이먹기' 및 '날아오르기'와 같이 4개의 액션모델로 나뉘었다. 각 액션모델을 구성하는 조종힘들이 찾아졌으며, 유한상태기계 기법을 사용하여 설계되었다. 설계된 시스템은 오우거 엔진과 집적하여 구현되었다. 구현된 시스템의 시뮬레이션으로부터 비둘기들의 자연스러운 집단행동을 표현하는 조종힘에 대한 다양한 파라미터 값들을 찾을 수 있었다.

In this paper, for the first time a new type of narrow-range angle sensor based on inductive effect is introduced and studied. A prototype steering angle sensor is also designed and fabricated to compare the characteristics of the four methods from the viewpoints of sensitivity, linearity and resolution, angle range of the sensor output. This sensor is designed to be sensitive to very small resolution in angle with detected range is scaled down to about 12bit. An intensive investigation has been carried out to study the behaviors of the sensor and optimize its performance by signal compensation. These behaviors are discussed and explained using an analytical and experimental testings. Moreover, Application possibility of the sensor are proposed and a demo device based on the sensor is presented.

가상세계에서 다중 에이전트들의 집단행동을 사실적으로 시뮬레이션하는 것은 중요하다. 대부분의 기존 연구가 개방된 공간에서의 집단행동에 초점 맞춘 반면, 본 논문은 제한된 공간에서 조종력을 이용한 집단행동에 대하여 연구한다. 에이전트들은 제한된 공간에서 하나의 공동 목적지를 가지며, 다른 에이전트와 충돌을 피하면서 목적지로 이동하여야 한다. 이러한 환경에서 세 가지 가능한 에이전트 모델을 제시 하였으며, 각 모델에 필요한 여섯 가지 조종력도 제안하였다. 제안된 모델의 올바름을 보이기 위하여 모델들을 시뮬레이션 하였다. 시뮬레이션 결과는 벽들과 출입구에 따라 각 에이전트가 목적지에 도착하는 시간은 달랐지만, 단순히 조종력만을 사용하는 제안된 모델들이 제한된 공간에서 잘 동작하는 것을 보였다.

This paper presents a model predictive control (MPC) approach to control the steering angle in an autonomous vehicle. In designing a highly automated driving control algorithm, one of the research issues is to cope with probable risky situations for enhancement of safety. While human drivers maneuver the vehicle, they determine the appropriate steering angle and acceleration based on the predictable trajectories of surrounding vehicles. Likewise, it is required that the automated driving control algorithm should determine the desired steering angle and acceleration with the consideration of not only the current states of surrounding vehicles but also their predictable behaviors. Then, in order to guarantee safety to the possible change of traffic situation surrounding the subject vehicle during a finite time-horizon, we define a safe driving envelope with the consideration of probable risky behaviors among the predicted probable behaviors of surrounding vehicles over a finite prediction horizon. For the control of the vehicle while satisfying the safe driving envelope and system constraints over a finite prediction horizon, a MPC approach is used in this research. At each time step, MPC based controller computes the desired steering angle to keep the subject vehicle in the safe driving envelope over a finite prediction horizon. Simulation and experimental tests show the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

A study of the guideway vehicle was made for a comparison of ride stabilities between its two primary steering types; one is the front wheel steering and the other the front-rear wheel. A numerical model as a closed loop system was built for an investigation of various factors to have an influence on the vehicular critical speed which is closely associated with ridabilities. It was shown that dynamics stabilities of the front steering type was much better over a large value of steering gain and the longer distance between front axle and guide link for both types provided better stabilities as well. A large steering gain ratio of the front to the rear significantly plays an important role in an improvement of stability in the front-rear steering. To observe a qualitative trend on stability behaviors, the root locus was obtained by considering a time lag which may be frequently caused by the complicated steering mechanism. In performing so, the appropriate selection of steering gain had a greater effect on the front-rear steering vehicle far more ride comfort. In addition, the dynamics model proposed here can be utilized for a more accurate evaluation on the vehicle design in lateral or yawing absorber and moreover expanded for the analysis of independent four-wheel steering vehicle.

This paper describes a human driver model developed based on finite preview optimal control method. The human driver steering model is constructed to minimize a performance index which is a quadratic form of lateral position error, yaw angle error and steering input. Simulation studies are conducted using a vehicle simulation software, Carsim. The Carsim vehicle model is validated using vehicle test data. In order to validate the human driving steering model, the human driver steering model is compared to the driving data on a virtual test track(VTT) and the actual vehicle test data. It is shown that human driver steering behaviors can be well represented by the human driver steering model presented in this paper

Recently, skid steering methods have been increasingly applied to unmanned ground vehicles since they can provide a narrow turn that general steering methods like ackerman steering may not provide. However, dynamic behaviors of the skid steering vehicles with articulating arms which occur during a steering are very complicated and coupled. This makes it difficult to control vehicles and in severe case vehicles may loose stability. There are two methods to control unmanned ground vehicles. The first one is speed control method generally used with easiness and robustness in remote vehicle control. The next one is torque control allowing the vehicles to get better performance in several cases provided careful application is achieved. This paper addresses dynamic phenomena of skid steering vehicles during steering and compares with vehicle driving control methods between torque(traction force) control and speed control.

In this paper, validation of Driver Steering Model has been conducted. The comparison between the simulation model and vehicle test results shows that the model is very feasible for describing combined human driver and actual vehicle dynamic behaviors. The 3D vehicle model is consisted of 6-DOF sprung mass and 4-quarter car model for vehicle body dynamics. Powertrain model including differential gear and Pacejka tire model are applied. The driver steering model is also validated with vehicle test result. The driver steering model is based on angle and displacement error from the desired path, recognized by driver.

As the traffic congestion and parking problems in urban areas are increased the tall and narrow commuter vehicles have interested as a means to increase the utilization of existing freewa- ys and parking facilities. However, in hard cornering those vehicles could reduce stability against overturning compared to conventional vehicles. This tendency can be mitigated by tilting the body toward the inside of the turn. In this paper those tilting vehicles are considered in which at speed at least, the tilt angle is controlled by steering the front wheels. In other word, if the driver turns the steering wheel the tilt controller automatically steers the road wheel to tilt the body inside of the turn. Also, the dynamic tilting vehicle model with tire slip angles is constructed by adding the roll degree of freedom. Finally, through computer simulation the behaviors of the tilting vehicles are investigated.
