The use of optimization methods in engineering is growing, allowing the best possible way to fulfill the requirements of the project. For vehicle suspensions, there are various conditions, which involve comfort, safety, stability, maneuverability, among others. A safety and stability evaluation is carried out by several tests, including Double Lane Change. In this maneuver, the vehicle must change lanes quickly twice, allowing it to be assessed for stability in sudden movements. For ride comfort, it is common for the design to be based on the vehicle’s natural vibration frequencies. In this context, this work aims to present a methodology for optimizing the suspension parameters of a vehicle, based on the natural frequencies of vibration and the simulation of a Double Lane Change maneuver. For that, it is employed vertical and lateral dynamics mathematical models, with hypotheses that allow the adequate adaptation to the represented phenomena. Finally, Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) is used, which is a stochastic algorithm, based on nature. It has low computational cost, with reasonable results, allowing the parameters to be estimated and comprising the two objectives simultaneously.

Abstract This work considers the cooperative trajectory-planning problem along a double lane change scenario for autonomous driving. In this paper, we develop two frameworks to solve this problem based on distributed model predictive control (MPC). The first approach solves a single nonlinear MPC problem. The general idea is to introduce a collision cost function in the optimization problem at the planning task to achieve a smooth and bounded collision function, and thus to prevent the need to implement tight hard constraints. The second method uses a hierarchical scheme with two main units: a trajectory-planning layer based on mixed-integer quadratic program (MIQP) computes an on-line collision-free trajectory using simplified motion dynamics, and a tracking controller unit to follow the trajectory from the higher level using the nonlinear vehicle model. Connected and automated vehicles (CAVs) sharing their planned trajectories lay the foundation of the cooperative behavior. In the tests and evaluation of the proposed methodologies, matlab-carsim cosimulation is utilized. carsim provides the high-fidelity model for the multibody vehicle dynamics. matlab-carsim conjoint simulation experiments compare both approaches for a cooperative double lane change maneuver of two vehicles moving along a one-way three-lane road with obstacles.
