This paper deals with the energy based control of a group of interconnected vehicles modeled as point masses. The control design is carried out by first shaping the kinetic energy and afterwards adding virtual potential energy and dissipative terms in order to achieve the desired stability performance. We assume that the vehicles move on a 2D surface and apply the results to simple examples with two...
This paper presents a hardware implementation of a platoon of four 1:14 scaled trucks. For this experiment, each truck was equipped with sensors for the measurement of specific variables required for the control of the platoon. These variables were transmitted via WLAN to an MPC555 processor in which the controller as well as the incoming data were processed. Graphical User Interfaces (GUIs) have...
