The main aim of any design must not solely be targeted on customer satisfaction however conjointly customer safety following this the amount of accidents are witness solely because of poor lighting facilities provided in automobiles on curved road static headlights are insufficient since they point tangential it along any point of curve instead of pointing in the vehicles direction so to avoid this problem steering controlled headlamp system has been projected which might hopefully flip out to be a boon to the individual driving through the sinusoidal roads throughout night times. Special safety features are built into cars for years some for the security of car’s occupants only, and some for the security of others. One among the alternatives available in design and fabrication of steering controlled headlight system. car safety is important to avoid automobile accidents or to minimise the harmful effect of accidents, especially as concerning human life and health. automobiles are controlled by incorporating steering controlled headlight mechanism. The Ackerman steering mechanism helps the motive force to guide the moving vehicles calls on the road by turning it right or left consistent with his needs thus a combination of the steering system and embedded system link kills the headlights within the direction as per the rotation of the steering wheel. this mechanism has been incorporated in BMW, Audi Q-7 and Benz etc., to make sure a safer drive, but our main aim is to implement the system in all vehicles at lower cost.

The steering system in a vehicle is one of the main systems that ensures its controllability and is important for road safety. The steering system consists of two main mechanisms, namely the steering gear, the task of which is to convert the rotary motion into reciprocating motion, and the steering gear, the task of which is to ensure the correct steering of the vehicle. In this case, the steering system is interconnected with the suspension of the car, in which there are four main angles of the wheels that are responsible for the correct maneuverability of the vehicle, namely: camber angle, toe angle, angle of rotation of the axle of the fist and the angle of inclination of the pivot axis of the fist. Measuring the geometry of a vehicle's suspension has several interrelated purposes. One of them is the modification of the stability of the vehicle, that is, the effective impact on the maintenance of the vehicle on the road. Handling also depends on the geometry setting and ensures proper maintenance on the road. Well adjusted geometry ensures even tire wear on each axle. The purpose of the steering system is to maintain the correct position of the steering wheel in relation to the steering wheels. The tests were carried out in stationary conditions at the diagnostic station of the Rzeszow University of Technology using an automatic device for measuring and regulating the air pressure in the tires of the Unitrol PA-10K car and the Launch X-631 car wheel alignment system. The object of the study was a passenger car of the Opel Agila brand. The tests were carried out for various values of air pressure in the car wheels. Based on the above, the task was set - to demonstrate how incorrect air pressure in the wheels of a car changes the angles of inclination of the wheels of the car. When analyzing the obtained test results, it was found that the pressure in the wheels, different from the nominal, but the same in each wheel, does not significantly affect the change in the values of the parameters of the angles of inclination of the vehicle wheels. If the pressure in the wheels on one side of the vehicle drops by 1 bar, there is a significant difference in the camber angles of the front axle. Changes in the air pressure in one of the rear wheels of the car do not significantly affect the angles of inclination of the car wheels. KEY WORDS: AIR PRESSURE IN THE WHEELS, UNEVEN PRESSURE, WHEEL MOUNTING ANGLES, CAMBER AND TOE ANGLES, STEERING.

The article is an analysis of the poetry of Gisella Lachman (1895–1969), poet of the “first wave” of Russian emigration, from the perspective of the poetics of space. The poet expressed her emigration experience (multiple changes of residence: Russia, Germany, Switzerland, USA) in her poems in spatial relations. They appear on different levels of the works’ morphology: in the construction of the lyrical “I”, in the organisation of the presented world, in the repertoire of motifs and the selection of poetic lexis and genre forms. Space plays a literal role in Lachman’s poetry; it is a representation of extra-literary reality, seen subjectively. It is also subject to metaphorisation, becoming a tool for expressing philosophical content. The poet creates not only a spatial model of the world, but also a spatial model of human life, which she perceives as a transit on the road to eternity.

All vehicles are affected by the type of the road they are moving on it.  Therefore the stability depends mainly on the amount of vibrations and steering system, which in turn depend on two main factors: the first is on the road type, which specifies the amount of vibrations arising from the movement of the wheels above it, and the second on is the type of the used suspension system, and how the parts connect with each other. As well as the damping factors, the tires type, and the used sprungs. In the current study, we will examine the effect of the road roughness on the performance coefficients (speed, displacement, and acceleration) of the joint points by using a BOGE device.

“At a time when neo-orthodox theology was dominant, [Reinhold] Niebuhr was able to use effectively, with far-reaching social consequences, the metaphysical-ontological categories of transcendence. Today it is important to recognize not only that these concepts have little meaning for another generation, but also that the biblical symbols point us in a different direction. The transcendent reality described in the biblical myths and images is not so much the God who stands above all human attainments, judging them and raising man to a higher order, but the God who goes ahead of us, opening the way for greater fulfillment on the road to the future. He is one whose actions in the totality of man's hisotyr lead to new events that open new possibilities. Thus the basic Christian symbols suggest that human life is free because it is lived, in history, in the context of ‘gracious’ sovereignty.”

This study is devoted to determining the geometric, kinematic and dynamic characteristics of a vehicle. To this purpose, it is proposed to use a complex approach applying the models of deformable body mechanics for describing the oscillatory movements of a vehicle and the computer vision algorithms for processing a series of object images to determine the state parameters of a vehicle on the road. The model of the vehicle vertical oscillations is produced by means of the viscoelastic elements and the dry friction element that fully enough represent the behavior of the sprung masses. The introduced algorithms and models can be used as a part of a complex system for monitoring and controlling the road traffic. In addition, they can determine both the speed of the car and its dynamic parameters and the driving behavior of the individual drivers.

The article analyzes the existing methods for determining the driver's condition. Driving in a state of fatigue, according to various statistics, is the cause of a large number of road traffic accidents (RTA). The percentage of accidents in Russia associated with the driver falling asleep while driving in 2018 is about 20%, in the USA the number of accidents for the same reason reaches 100,000 per year. The aim of the work is to review existing approaches to recognizing driver fatigue and existing technical solutions in this area. The article discusses such approaches as fatigue recognition based on the physiological state of the driver, recognition based on the driver's behavior, namely his speech and visual signs while driving, fatigue determination based on the nature of the vehicle's movement on the road and based on the driver's actions on the controls, the approaches based on the subjective assessment of the driver's condition. The advantages and disadvantages of each of the approaches were analyzed. The paper also provides an overview of existing fatigue recognition systems from various manufacturers that are currently used on vehicles and are designed to warn the driver of impending fatigue. It was revealed that in modern conditions of road transport operation, the most optimal approaches to fatigue recognition are based on an assessment of the driver's impact on the steering wheel, visual signs of driver fatigue and the nature of the vehicle's movement on the road, therefore, it is proposed to further focus on these methods.

The synchronization error of the left and right steering-wheel-angles and the disturbances rejection of the synchronization controller are of great significance for the active rear axle independent steering (ARIS) system under complex driving conditions and uncertain disturbances. In order to reduce synchronization error, a novel hierarchical synchronization control strategy based on virtual synchronization control and linear active disturbance rejection control (LADRC) is proposed. The upper controller adopts the virtual synchronization controller based on the dynamic model of the virtual rear axle steering mechanism to reduce the synchronization error between the rear wheel steering angles of the ARIS system; the lower controller is designed based on an LADRC algorithm to realize an accurate tracking control of the steering angle for each wheels. Experiments based on a prototype vehicle are conducted to prove that the proposed hierarchical synchronization control strategy for the ARIS system can improve the control accuracy significantly and has the properties of better disturbances rejection and stronger robustness.

: The practice of medicine depends over a long time on identifying therapies that target an entire population. The increase in scientific knowledge over the years has led to the gradual change towards individualization and personalization of drug therapy. The hope of this change is to achieve a better clinical response to given medications and reduction of their adverse effects. Tailoring of medicine on the road of personalized medicine considers molecular and genetic mapping of the individual. However, many factors still impede the smooth application of personalized medicine and represent challenges or limitations in its achievement. In this article, we put some clinical examples that show dilemmas in the application of personalized medicine such as opioids in pain control, fluoropyrimidines in malignancy, clopidogrel as antiplatelet therapy and oral hypoglycemic drugs in Type2 diabetes in adults. Shaping the future of medicine through the application of personalized medicine for a particular patient needs to put into consideration many factors such as patient’s genetic makeup and life style, pathology of the disease and dynamic changes in its course as well as interactions between administered drugs and their effects on metabolizing enzymes. We hope in the coming years, the personalized medicine will foster changes in health care system in the way not only to treat patients but also to prevent diseases.

Study of traditional assist characteristic cure does not take into account the difference of steering resistance torque caused by different road adhesion coefficient. Vehicle dynamics analysis model is established based on ADAMS/CAR. Simulation of steering wheel torque is realized under different road conditions. Departure from the ideal boost characteristics requirements and combined with ideal steering wheel torque under different speed and lateral acceleration., the article built assist characteristic curve under a certain road conditions. The system can real-time select the assist characteristic curve through identifying the vehicle traveling road conditions by the way of BP neural network. The theory provided a feasible method for the improvement of the EPS system performance.
