Handling Cut-In Vehicles in Strings of Cooperative Adaptive Cruise Control Vehicles

Cooperative adaptive cruise control (CACC) systems are a candidate to improve highway capacity by shortening headways and attenuating traffic disturbances. Although encouraging results have been obtained until now, a wide range of traffic circumstances has to be investigated in order to get reliable CACC systems driving on real roads. Among them, handling both vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communications-equipped and unequipped vehicles merging into the string of CACC vehicles is a commonly mentioned challenge. In this article, an algorithm for managing the transitions in response to cut-ins from V2V- or non-V2V-equipped vehicles is developed and tested using a string of four CACC vehicles. A CACC controller is implemented in four production Infiniti M56s vehicles and tested in real traffic, where non-V2V-equipped vehicles can cut in. The effects of a vehicle performing a cut-out are also investigated. Then responses to cut-ins by equipped and nonequipped vehicles are simulated for longer strings of vehicles using car-following models for both the production adaptive cruise control (ACC) system and the newly developed CACC controller. Results demonstrate that the CACC system is able to handle cut-in vehicles without causing major perturbations, while also reducing significantly the impact of this maneuver on the following vehicles, improving traffic flow.     

用有限元法确定弹塑性材料结构的极限承载力

确定弹塑性材料结构的极限承载能力是结构设计中极其重要的一个问题,它通常是采用弹塑性非线性有限元方法来进行分析的.本文提出了利用基于一系列线弹性有限元解来获得弹塑性材料结构的极限承载能力的试验误差法,并将它与切线法和割线法进行了比较和讨论.在计算的每一步中,根据应力松弛系数降低杨氏弹性模量,并将结构的应力松弛系数和作为误差指标.当结构的误差指标小于给定的误差容限时就得到收敛解.本文方法可计算出结构受载后直到崩溃时应力、应变和载荷-变形曲线.数值实验表明,本文方法是有效的和可行的.     

GPS资料获取的四川地区应变率演化状态

为了研究汶川5·12地震事件对青藏高原东南缘及四川盆地的应力再分配作用及该区域现今的地震危险性,使用1997-2015年共计355个GPS站点观测资料获取了该区域1997-2008、2009-2011、2011-2013、2013-2015年共计4期独立的速度场,基于规则格网和张力样条插值方法计算了上述速度结果对应的面膨胀率、垂直轴旋转率及最大剪应变率.以2008年汶川Ms8.0级地震为主要节点,以芦山2013年Ms7.0级地震、康定2014年Ms6.3级地震为参考节点,分析了应变率场的时空演化过程及其与地震事件的潜在关联性.研究结果显示:随着汶川震后的时间推移,沿龙门山断裂的3种应变率分布均有减弱趋势,但至今仍未恢复至震前状态,说明该区域的震后回弹受下地壳黏弹性流变物质的弛豫影响较为显著;安宁河-则木河断裂及周边的面压缩率在汶川地震之后有增强趋势,该趋势可能与区域的地震危险性有所关联;安宁河-则木河断裂带及鲜水河断裂北段是未来一段时间该研究区域内应该持续关注的主要地震危险区.      

Experimental study of drillship resistance performance in open and closed state of moonpool北大核心CSCD

[Objective] This paper carries out an experimental study of a multi-function dirllship model with moonpool structure in towing tank, aiming at analyzing the effects of the moonpool structure on the ship resistance in open and closure condition.[Methods]Taking a dirllship as the research object, the ship motion response in regular and irregular waves is investigated. The resistance of the ship in hydrostatic water and waves is measured with tension sensors, and the acceleration characteristics of the bow, midship and stern are analyzed by acceleration sensors.[Results]The results indicate that hull resistance under light load conditions is greater when open moonpool, while hydrostatic water resistance with closed moonpool is greater under design load conditions. The closed moonpool in regular waves reduces stern acceleration by 58.2%, bow resistance by 46.7% and heave response by 41.8%. The peak of resistance at the bow in irregular waves is about ten times higher than that at the stern, and the peak of resistance occurs more often when the moonpool is open at the same time.[Conclusions]The experimental study shows that the difference in load conditions changes the waterplane area and affects the hull resistance in hyrostatic water. In contrast, the closure of the moonpool not only reduces acceleration and resistance, but also improves surge and heave. As such, this paper can provide references for the structural design of drillships with moonpools. © 2023 Journal of Nanjing Agricultural University. All rights reserved.
