UrbanBox a Low Cost End-to-End Platform for Smart City Sensing

Over the last decade, the number of cyberattacks targeting power systems and causing physical and economic damages has increased rapidly. Among them, False Data Injection Attacks (FDIAs) is a class of cyberattacks against power grid monitoring …

Model Predictive Control of Regenerative Dampers With Acceleration and Energy Harvesting Trade-Offs

Regenerative suspensions are becoming a potential to achieve active suspensions without reducing fuel economy. In this paper, a model predictive controller (MPC) is developed to minimize sprung mass vertical acceleration or maximize the energy …

Cyber-attack detection and accommodation algorithm for energy delivery systems

Cyber-attack accommodation in a cyber-physical system is to ensure system operation, integrity and availability while maintaining a reasonable operational performance under attack. In this paper, we present a novel cyber-attack accommodation …

Development of realizable and adaptive wheel torque allocation for the control of planar vehicle dynamics

A control allocation architecture is developed for the control of the planar dynamics of a wheel motored vehicle. First, a benchmark controller is presented which takes advantage of indeterminate tire information to make informed control allocation …

Active suspension for the control of planar vehicle dynamics

A novel method of actuating an active suspension system for the control of planar vehicle dynamics is proposed. Active suspension forces are applied in such a way that their effect on the chassis heave-pitch-roll dynamics is negligible. Instead, …

Vehicle Roll Stabilization Enhancement Using a Variable Stiffness Architecture: Kinematic Control

A variable stiffness architecture is used in the suspension system to counteract the body roll moment, thereby enhancing the roll stability of the vehicle. The variation of stiffness concept uses the “reciprocal actuation” to effectively transfer …
