Connectivity-enabled automation of distributed control systems allow for better anticipation of system disturbances and better prediction of the effects of actuator limitations on individual agents when incorporating a model. Automated…
Autonomous vehicle following systems are playing a decisive role to increase vehicle density on roads by shortening inter-vehicle time gaps. However, disturbance attenuation along a platoon of vehicles, i.e., string stability, is being a…
In this paper a novel platoon model is presented. Nonlinear aerodynamic effects, such as the wake generated by the preceding vehicle, are considered, and their influence in the set up of a Adaptive Cruise Controller (ACC) is investigated.…
This paper presents a novel approach to coordinated vehicle platooning, where the platoon followers communicate solely with the platoon leader. A dynamic model is proposed to account for driving safety under communication delays. General…
Platooning involves a set of vehicles moving in a cooperative fashion at equal inter-vehicular distances. Taking advantage of wireless communication technology, this paper aims to show the impact of network protocols on a platoon using a…

Platooning has been exploited as a method for vehicles to minimize energy consumption. In this article, we present a constraint-driven optimal control framework that yields emergent platooning behavior for connected and automated vehicles…
The operation of groups of heavy-duty vehicles (HDVs) at a small inter-vehicular distance (known as platoon) allows to lower the overall aerodynamic drag and, therefore, to reduce fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. However, due…
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…
