Summary: This study proposes an improved dynamic rollover index (RI) that can detect real-time rollover events in heavy-duty vehicles. By designing an unknown input observer (UIO) to estimate the vehicle's roll angle and using a parameter estimation algorithm to observe unmeasurable and time-varying parameters, the proposed method shows accurate estimation of key parameters and strict rollover detection. Furthermore, a dynamic predictive rollover threshold is determined by investigating the thresholds of roll angle and lateral acceleration, ensuring sufficient response time for controller delay.

Summary: In this paper, a common design methodology is formulated for deriving an adaptive cruise control algorithm to compensate for the lower level time-lag and improve stability. The inclusion of vehicle dynamics in the design reduces the performance of the adaptive cruise control system. The proposed method can be used to design new models or extend existing models. The derived design method fulfills the over-damped string stability condition, improving safety and performance.

Summary: This study proposes a real-time motor control strategy to improve the anti-rollover stability of electric vehicles, based on the acquisition of vehicle attitude data and real-time monitoring of the vehicle's operating state. The lateral load transfer rate is used as the evaluation index for vehicle rollover, and the motor speed is actively controlled to avoid or reduce the risk of rollover when the real-time rollover indicator exceeds the safety threshold.

Summary: Safe driving decision-making is crucial for automated commercial vehicles (ACVs). Unlike small passenger vehicles, commercial vehicles need to consider both collision prevention and rollover prevention due to their longer brake distance and worse roll stability. This article proposes a safe driving decision-making methodology based on a cascade imitation learning network (CILN), which integrates supervised and imitation learning parts. Experimental results show that the CILN outperforms other decision-making algorithms, ensuring the driving safety of ACVs in dense traffic flow.

Summary: This paper addresses the problem of guiding a vehicle through unstructured environments using an external leader. The proposed trajectory-following approach estimates the leader's path and uses a spline-approximation technique to obtain a smooth reference path. A constant time-headway policy is implemented for longitudinal tracking. The algorithm is tested in a simulation framework and validated in a demonstrator vehicle under real operating conditions, using on-board sensors for data collection.

Summary: This paper presents a new dataset for automated driving that addresses a gap in existing perception datasets. The provided information in most perception datasets is often insufficient due to unknown and time-varying errors in object list and position data. This paper describes the first publicly available perception measurement data that include high-precision ground-truth position measurements and semantically classified objects. It also provides insight into the data capturing process and potential application examples in automated driving and environmental perception systems.
