Convoy vehicles, defined as individual vehicles traveling with close following distances on a specified path, have been recently the subject of research especially in military applications. Military drivers are often young and inexperienced, and more prone to lose control of vehicles on rough terrain. In addition, Intelligent Vehicle Highway Systems with autonomous civilian vehicles travelling in platoons are an active research and experimentation topic. The idea of communicating dynamic responses between preceding and following vehicles, to improve the followers' ride comfort and handling,...

The automotive industry has long been searching for efficient ways to improve vehicle performance such as fuel consumption and emissions. Today, by developing computer/software technologies, automotive manufacturers are moving more and more towards modelling a real component in a software domain (virtual prototype). The objective of this book is to develop and validate physics-based powertrain models with sufficient fidelity to be useful to the automotive industry for rapid prototyping. Developing a physics-based powertrain model that can accurately simulate real phenomenon in the powertrain...
