Dual extended Kalman filter for vehicle state and parameter estimation

The article demonstrates the implementation of a model-based vehicle estimator, which can be used for combined estimation of vehicle states and parameters. The estimator is realised using the dual extended Kalman filter (DEKF) technique, which makes use of two Kalman filters running in parallel, thus 'splitting' the state and parameter estimation problems. Note that the two problems cannot be entirely separated due to their inherent interdependencies. This technique provides several advantages, such as the possibility to switch off the parameter estimator, once a sufficiently good set of estimates has been obtained. The estimator is based on a four-wheel vehicle model with four degrees of freedom, which accommodates the dominant modes only, and is designed to make use of several interchangeable tyre models. The paper demonstrates the appropriateness of the DEKF. Results to date indicate that this is an effective approach, which is considered to be of potential benefit to the automotive industry.

基于正则化与B样条曲线的桥梁影响线识别方法

为了快速评估既有桥梁的安全性，研究了基于多源实测信息快速准确识别桥梁影响线的方法。首先利用桥梁动力响应及车辆移动的实测信息，建立影响线识别的数学模型。在模型中引入Tikhonov正则化方法以解决病态矩阵求解问题，通过设置罚函数项以取得较光滑并贴近真实的影响线。然后通过基函数扩展法重构影响线，将其表示为一系列三次B样条基函数的线性组合，从而将问题从识别众多影响线因子简化为识别少量基函数权重系数。为了验证上述方法的可行性，先在实验室模拟钢制试验小车在钢筋混凝土三跨连续梁模型上移动的过程。基于实测布置于梁底的多测点挠度和应变响应时程以及相应的试验车信息，可识别出不同位置测点的挠度和应变影响线。试验结果表明无论是影响线的总体形状还是局部峰值，识别解与基准解均能较好地吻合。该方法还被进一步应用到一座简支现浇预应力混凝土箱梁桥。该试验通过实测检测车过桥期间的桥梁跨中截面若干测点的动应变、动挠度以及车辆重力、实时位置等信息，准确识别了对应于不同车道的挠度和应变影响线。通过对比桥梁静载实测和影响线虚拟加载结果，发现两者偏差绝对值在5%以内。在一定程度上表明了该影响线识别方法具有较高精度，并具备工程应用的良好潜力。     

Real-time traffic state estimation in urban corridors from heterogeneous data

In recent years, rapid advances in information technology have led to various data collection systems which are enriching the sources of empirical data for use in transport systems. Currently, traffic data are collected through various sensors including loop detectors, probe vehicles, cell-phones, Bluetooth, video cameras, remote sensing and public transport smart cards. It has been argued that combining the complementary information from multiple sources will generally result in better accuracy, increased robustness and reduced ambiguity. Despite the fact that there have been substantial advances in data assimilation techniques to reconstruct and predict the traffic state from multiple data sources, such methods are generally data-driven and do not fully utilize the power of traffic models. Furthermore, the existing methods are still limited to freeway networks and are not yet applicable in the urban context due to the enhanced complexity of the flow behavior. The main traffic phenomena on urban links are generally caused by the boundary conditions at intersections, un-signalized or signalized, at which the switching of the traffic lights and the turning maneuvers of the road users lead to shock-wave phenomena that propagate upstream of the intersections. This paper develops a new model-based methodology to build up a real-time traffic prediction model for arterial corridors using data from multiple sources, particularly from loop detectors and partial observations from Bluetooth and GPS devices.

A substitute model of two-dimensional dry friction exposed to dither generated by rolling contact of wheel and rail

Dither generated by rolling contact of wheel and rail smoothes dry friction damping provided by the primary suspension dampers of freight wagons and it should be taken into account in numerical simulations. But numerically the problem is non-smooth and this leads to long execution time during simulation, especially when the vehicle with friction dampers is modelled in the environment of an multi-body system simulation program, whose solver has to cope with many strong non-linearities. The other difficulty is the necessity of handling within the code a number of big volume files of recorded dither sampled with high frequency. To avoid these difficulties, a substitute model of two-dimensional dry friction exposed to dither is proposed that does not need application of dither during simulation, but it behaves as if dither were applied. Due to this property of the model, the excitation of the vehicle model by track irregularities may be supplied as low-frequency input, which allows fast execution and, the necessity of handling high-volume files of recorded dither is avoided. The substitute model is numerically effective. To identify parameters of the substitute model, a pre-processing employing a sample of the realistic dither is carried-out on a simple two-degrees-of-freedom system. The substitute model is anisotropic, describing anisotropic properties of the two-dimensional friction arising in the presence of one-dimensional dither. The model may be applied in other branches of engineering, for example, in mechatronics and robotics, where application of dither may improve the accuracy of positioning devices.
