Abstract
In this paper, a complete model of an electro hydraulic driven dry clutch along with its
performance evaluation has elucidated. Through precision modeling, a complete nonlinear
physical and full order sketch of clutch has drawn. Ultimate nonlinearities existent in the
system prohibits it from being controlled by conventional linear control algorithms and to
compensate the behavior of the system mainly during gearshift procedure, a nonlinear control
program has been developed and tested. A unique approach to estimating clamp force has been
adopted which makes the system comparable to a real world and full-physical one. Based on
this type of modeling, the control approach is a true and feasible, ready-to-implement program
which is based only on reality. The clutch model has been validated against experiments and
great agreement has been attained since, every fine point has been taken into account and
nothing is out of representation unless it is not crucial to system performance. The nonlinear
control program does the control task very well and administrates the system in the desired
trajectory.

Abstract
In this study, stability control of a three-wheeled vehicle with two wheels on the front axle, a three-wheeled
vehicle with two wheels on the rear axle, and a standard four-wheeled vehicle are compared. For vehicle
dynamics control systems, the direct yaw moment control is considered as a suitable way of controlling the
lateral motion of a vehicle during a severe driving maneuver. In accordance to the present available
technology, the performance of vehicle dynamics control actuation systems is based on the individual
control of each wheel braking force known as the differential braking. Also, in order to design the vehicle
dynamics control system the linear optimal control theory is used. Then, to investigate the effectiveness of
the proposed linear optimal control system, computer simulations are carried out by using nonlinear twelvedegree-
of-freedom models for three-wheeled cars and a fourteen-degree-of-freedom model for a fourwheeled
car. Simulation results of lane change and J-turn maneuvers are shown with and without control
system. It is shown that for lateral stability, the three wheeled vehicle with single front wheel is more stable
than the four wheeled vehicle, which is in turn more stable than the three wheeled vehicle with single rear
wheel. Considering turning radius which is a kinematic property shows that the front single three-wheeled
car is more under steer than the other cars.

Abstract
Environmental pollution and reduction of fossil fuel resources can be considered as the most important challenges for human society in the recent years. The results of previous studies show that the main consumer of fossil fuels and, consequently, most of the air pollutants, is related to the transportation industry and especially cars. The increasing growth of vehicles, the increase in traffic and the decrease in the average speed of inner-city vehicles have led to a sharp increase in fuel consumption. To address this problem, automakers have proposed the development and commercialization of hybrid vehicles as an alternative to internal combustion vehicles. In this paper, the design of an energy management system in a fuel-cell hybrid vehicle based on the look-ahead fuzzy control is considered. The preparation of fuzzy rules and the design of membership functions is based on the fuel efficiency curve of the fuel-cell. In look-ahead fuzzy control, the ahead conditions of the vehicle are the basis for decision in terms of slope and speed limit due to path curves as well as battery charge level. The fuzzy controller will determine the on or off status of the fuel-cell, as well as the power required. The motion of the fuel-cell hybrid vehicle on a real road is simulated and the performance of the proposed look-ahead controller is compared with the base controller (thermostatic method). The simulation results show that using the proposed approach can reduce the fuel consumption of the fuel-cell hybrid vehicle as well as travel time.
