This article focuses on dynamics and control of connected and automated vehicles. The complexity and difficulty can grow significantly from low automation levels to higher levels. The paper briefly highlights three challenges, i.e., sensing, localization, and perception. The Mobility Transformation Center (MTC) is a public/private research and development partnership led by the University of Michigan. MTC aims to develop the foundations for a viable ecosystem of CAVs. A popular alternative to test high-automation-level AVs is the Naturalistic-Field Operational Test (N-FOT). In an N-FOT, a number of equipped vehicles are tested under naturalistic driving conditions over an extended period. In the near future, connected and automated vehicle technologies are expected to be deployed rapidly. While there has been a lot of research in, and attention to, the field of sensing, localization, and perception, this paper aims to point out a few areas related to the field of dynamics and control that are opportunities for further research.

Abstract The paper describes the design and multibody dynamic analysis of a mechanically interconnected suspension, as applied to a small off-road vehicle. Interconnected suspensions use some sort of connection between the axles of a vehicle in order improve ride quality or vehicle handling. In principle, the connection may be hydraulic, pneumatic, or mechanical, but for installation in a typical passenger car, a mechanical connection would likely be impractical due to weight and complexity. In this paper, the vehicle in question is the University of Windsor SAE Baja off-road competition vehicle, and novel mechanical design is proposed. A multibody dynamic analysis is performed on the proposed design using the EoM open source multibody software developed by the University of Windsor Vehicle Dynamics and Control research group in order to assess any potential performance improvements.

The paper deals with the course “Dynamics and Control of Fluid Machines”, which has been held at the Faculty of Engineering of the University of Ferrara (Italy) since the academic year 2002/2003 for the Second-Level Degree Course in Computer Sciences and Automation Engineering. The aim of the course is the study of fluid machines, by combining base knowledge with physical-mathematical analysis of the unsteady behavior and of off-design operating conditions. The first characteristic aspect of the course is the study of the dynamic behavior of fluid machines. The second relevant aspect is the analysis of system control. In this paper, course characteristics are presented and discussed. In particular, as a part of the final examination, students are asked to develop an individual project, whose results are also reported in this paper. The project consists of the simulation of the dynamic behavior of an industrial system for compressed air production by means of a multistage centrifugal compressor. Students are required to properly design the controller and to discuss the adopted control logic. Student feedback is evaluated by means of a survey conducted to evaluate the quality of the didactic activity. The analysis of student feedback reveals that student evaluation towards the course proves higher than the “average” evaluation for the didactic activity held at the University of Ferrara, at the Faculty of Engineering or within the same Degree Course.

As the four-wheel steering (4WS) system has great potentials, many researchers' attention was attracted to this technique and active research was made. As a result, passenger cars equipped with 4WS systems were put on the market a few years ago. This report tries to identify the essential elements of the 4WS technology in terms of vehicle dynamics and control techniques. Based on the findings of this investigation, the report gives a mechanism of electronically controlling the steering system depending on the variable pressure applied on it. This enhances the controlling and smoothens the operation of steering mechanism.
