Suppose in a stable urban traffic system populated only by human driven vehicles (HDVs), a given proportion (e.g. 10%) is replaced by a fleet of Connected and Autonomous Vehicles (CAVs), which share information and pursue a collective goal.…

As the use of Augmented Reality (AR) to enhance interactions between human agents and robotic systems in a work environment continues to grow, robots must communicate their intents in informative yet straightforward ways. This improves the…

No human drives a car in a vacuum; she/he must negotiate with other road users to achieve their goals in social traffic scenes. A rational human driver can interact with other road users in a socially-compatible way through implicit…

Uncertainty is an inherent aspect of autonomous vehicle (AV) decision-making, yet it is rarely communicated to pedestrians, which hinders transparency. This study investigates how AV uncertainty can be conveyed through two approaches:…

Connected and automated vehicles (CAVs) have a great potential to improve traffic efficiency in mixed traffic systems, which has been demonstrated by multiple numerical simulations and field experiments. However, some fundamental properties…

Cooperative vehicle management emerges as a promising solution to improve road traffic safety and efficiency. This paper addresses the speed planning problem for connected and autonomous vehicles (CAVs) at an unsignalized intersection with…

Manoeuvring in the presence of emergency vehicles is still a major issue for vehicle autonomy systems. Most studies that address this topic are based on rule-based methods, which cannot cover all possible scenarios that can take place in…

Connectivity and automation in vehicles provide the most intriguing opportunity for enabling users to better monitor transportation network conditions and make better operating decisions to improve safety and reduce pollution, energy…

Connected Autonomous Vehicles (CAVs) are widely expected to improve traffic safety and efficiency by exploiting information from surrounding vehicles via V2V communication. A CAV typically adapts its speed based on information from the…

Integrated Communications and Sensing (ICS) has recently emerged as an enabling technology for ubiquitous sensing and IoT applications. For ICS application to Autonomous Vehicles (AVs), optimizing the waveform structure is one of the most…

Purpose: Human-machine collaboration is a promising strategy to improve hazard inspection. However, research on the effective integration of opinions from humans with machines for optimal group decision making is lacking. Hence, considering…

In this article an automation system for human-machine-interfaces (HMI) for setpoint adjustment using supervised learning is presented. We use HMIs of multi-modal thermal conditioning systems in passenger cars as example for a complex…

The cooperative control applied to vehicles allows the optimization of traffic on the roads. There are many aspects to consider in the case of the operation of autonomous vehicles on highways since there are different external parameters…

We derive time and energy-optimal control policies for a Connected Autonomous Vehicle (CAV) to complete lane change maneuvers in mixed traffic. The interaction between CAVs and Human-Driven Vehicles (HDVs) requires designing the best…

Providing pedestrians and other vulnerable road users with a clear indication about a fully autonomous vehicle status and intentions is crucial to make them coexist. In the last few years, a variety of external interfaces have been…

Trajectory planning for automated vehicles commonly employs optimization over a moving horizon - Model Predictive Control - where the cost function critically influences the resulting driving style. However, finding a suitable cost function…

With the rapid development of connected and automated vehicles (CAVs) and intelligent transportation infrastructure, CAVs, connected human-driven vehicles (CHVs), and un-connected human-driven vehicles (HVs) will coexist on the roads in the…

Global megatrends, such as urbanization, population growth, and emerging network solutions are accelerating the development of the Connected and Autonomous Vehicles (CAVs) industry. There are many truths, some misconceptions, and even some…

With the commercial application of automated vehicles (AVs), the sharing of roads between AVs and human-driven vehicles (HVs) becomes a common occurrence in the future. While research has focused on improving the safety and reliability of…

Emerging vehicle automation and communication systems (VACS) may contribute to the improvement of vehicle travel time and the mitigation of motorway traffic congestion on the basis of appropriate control strategies. This work considers the…
