Road traffic crashes have been the leading cause of death among young people. Most of these accidents occur when the driver becomes distracted due to fatigue or external factors. Vehicle platooning systems such as Cooperative Adaptive…
Cooperative driving, enabled by communication between automated vehicle systems, is expected to significantly contribute to transportation safety and efficiency. Cooperative Adaptive Cruise Control (CACC) and platooning are two of the main…
The paper deals with the design of nonlinear adaptive cruise controllers for vehicular platoons operating on an open road or a ring-road. The constructed feedback controllers are nonlinear functions of the distance between successive…

As electric vehicles (EVs) are increasingly adopted as platforms for connected and automated vehicles (CAVs), enhancing their energy efficiency becomes critical. With the emergence of vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication, cooperative…
Cooperative Adaptive Cruise Control (CACC) is a well-studied technology for forming string-stable vehicle platoons. Ensuring collision avoidance is particularly difficult in CACC due to the small desired inter-vehicle spacing. We propose a…
Adaptive Control Lyapunov Functions (aCLFs) were introduced 20 years ago, and provided a Lyapunov-based methodology for stabilizing systems with parameter uncertainty. The goal of this paper is to revisit this classic formulation in the…
Vehicle-to-vehicle communications can be unreliable as interference causes communication failures. Thereby, the information flow topology for a platoon of Connected Autonomous Vehicles (CAVs) can vary dynamically. This limits existing…
Vehicle to Vehicle (V2V) communication has a great potential to improve reaction accuracy of different driver assistance systems in critical driving situations. Cooperative Adaptive Cruise Control (CACC), which is an automated application,…
