Year 2000

The rapid growth in the number of trucks on the nation's highways combined with the fact that safety violation rates have not declined significantly have created an urgency to increase the efficiency of heavy-truck inspections. At the same time, the growing number of on-board electronic systems are delivering more information than ever before about key components of vehicle operation. The objective of this study is to determine whether it would be feasible to standardize electronic diagnostic interface systems and use them to help make roadside inspection faster, more accurate, and less constrained by shortages of qualified inspection personnel. The study found that electronics has made significant inroads into components of heavy-duty commercial vehicles. In addition to widely adopted systems, such as electronically controlled engines, transmissions, and antilock brakes, the technology exists for a number of new applications. The heavy-duty Class 8 truck of the year 2000 and beyond could be equipped with as many as 50 electronic systems but more likely with three to seven intelligent control devices for the engine, transmission, brakes, retarder, instrument cluster, trip recorder, and off-board communications. There is potential for using these electronics in roadside inspections as standardization efforts by the Society of Automotive Engineers and The Maintenance Council successfully continue if the proper on-board parameters are made available to inspectors.

Abstract: The future of automotive relies on the mechatronic and electronic systems. The worldwide growth of automotive towards electronic systems suggests that driverless cars would soon be the common commuters. With such improvements safety of the passengers becomes first priority for the manufacturers. Nowadays automobiles come with high end technologies and quick responsive electronic systems. In addition to the passive safety systems, active safety systems definitely avoid collision thereby reducing the chances of injury and death. This project shows the working of an active safety system that is collision avoidance system. To create the model, TINKERCAD software has been used and a detailed working is explained. As a result, the system detects traffic and can alert the driver and stop the vehicle before meeting the collision. Keywords: Active Safety System, Arduino, Tinkercad, Vehicle Electronics System, Automotive Safety System, Collision Avoidance System, Self-Driving Car, Driverless Vehicle.

The Relationship

The chassis of light commercial vehicle (LCV) could be used for creating a wide range of vehicles modifications with the similar base (chassis), but really different performance in wide range of maneuvers. The differences could be explained by variety of design parameters. It means that the design of LCV modifications needs some effective approach that will provide an engineer by necessary data that could help to estimate the performance of new vehicles in particular active safety characteristics. This paper presents the combination of experimental and simulation methods that could be used for estimation of LCV active safety characteristics (first of all cornering stability). The experimental method of estimation of cornering stability is shown that is based on regulations of the Russian Standard GOST R 52302-2004 that presuppose different types of testing: static rollover and dynamic maneuvering on a road (line changing and running into the corner). The multi-body simulation method with using of MSC.ADAMS/CAR software was also used in a study. The approval of developed LCV multi-body model was made on a basis of good correlation between simulation results and experimental data. The relationship between LCVs design parameters (axle load distribution, height of the center of gravity, vertical and angular suspension stiffness) and active safety characteristics are received.
