Lecture|Improving the efficiency of road transportation using connectivity and automation

发布时间:2024-06-14

Speaker:Gabor Orosz, University of Michigan, Professor

Inviter:Hanyang Zhuang, Assistant Research Professor

Time:2024.06.14  10:00 - 11:30 am

Location:Auditorium 200, East Wing of Pao Yue-Kong Library, Minhang Campus, Shanghai Jiao Tong University

Abstract:

In this talk I will focus on the dynamics and control of connected automated vehicles in mixed traffic scenarios where CAVs interact with human-driven vehicles. I will highlight the concept of connected cruise control (CCC) which enables CAVs to improve their safety and energy efficiency by responding to the motion of multiple vehicles ahead. I will show how such benefits may be retained for low penetration of connectivity using infrastructure support. Finally, I will discuss how conflict analysis can be utilized to improve safety and efficiency while using intent information and negotiation. The theoretical results will be demonstrated using experiments with full-size vehicles on test tracks and public roads.
