The motion planning is a critical component of autonomous navigation, requiring the vehicle to reach a target location safely. Traditional navigation approaches for four-wheel differential drive automated guided vehicles...

Underwater vehicles operating in close proximity suffer from significant hydrodynamic interactions, especially when there is a prominent vehicle size disparity. To gain profound insights into the physical mechanisms of i...

The transport industry has recently shown significant interest in unmanned surface vehicles (USVs), specifically for port and inland waterway transport. These systems can improve operational efficiency and safety, which ...

The environmental performance of vehicle electrification depends critically on the extent to which electric vehicles (EV) actually replace conventional vehicles (CV). Comparative life cycle assessment (LCA) studies typic...

Electric vehicles are currently the leading solution in the automotive market to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. However, transitioning from traditional internal combustion engines poses many challenges. One of these ch...

Fuel Cell Recreational Vehicles (FCRVs) are emerging as a promising sustainable alternative to conventional diesel- and gasoline-powered recreational vehicles. This paper evaluates the financial and technological aspects...

Autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) operating in harsh, communication-limited underwater environments require robust fault diagnosis systems to ensure mission success and safety. Existing model-based approaches suffer ...

In response to the limitations of traditional planning methods for Autonomous Surface Vehicles (ASVs), which heavily rely on predefined map representations and neglect kinematic feasibility, this paper proposes a novel k...

Abstract Solar-powered electric-vehicle (EV) charging in tropical, PV-rich regions such as Uganda faces coupled stressors from high ambient temperature and intermittent solar irradiance, which can destabilize conventiona...

Abstract Increasing concerns about greenhouse gas emissions and local air pollution have motivated the search for sustainable transportation alternatives. Electric vehicles (EVs) offer a promising solution, yet their pot...

Railway transportation is the main artery of the national economy, developing towards high speed, heavy load, and complex application environments. The performance and service safety of critical load-bearing components o...

Agile, dynamic, and safe motion planning in interactive environments is a key challenge for autonomous vehicles. Most research has focused on enhancing established planning algorithms, often aiming to improve optimality ...

Aluminum/magnesium alloys have increasingly important applications in the lightweight design and manufacturing of launch vehicles due to their excellent mechanical properties. The bodies and body cover panels of new ener...

Mandatory lane changes (MLCs) pose significant challenges to trajectory planning at intersections, where vehicles are required to change lanes mid-block to reach designated turn lanes before the stop bar. MLCs often gene...

This article examines variation in green industrial policies for electrified vehicles (EVs) in Brazil and Mexico. Both are middle-income democracies with significant automotive sectors, yet they have adopted distinct tec...

Efforts to conserve fuel oil (BBM) promoted by the Indonesian government and many other countries are motivated by the fact that fossil fuel availability has decreased and environmental pollution continues to worsen. Str...

Abstract Background Carbapenem-resistant Citrobacter freundii is increasingly reported and recognized as an opportunistic host of mobile carbapenemase-encoding elements in healthcare-associated settings. However, lineage...

Abstract The shift from internal combustion engines to electric powertrains has redefined the noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) profile of contemporary vehicles. The reduction of engine-generated broadband noise has ...
