Evers, W.J. (author), Besselink, I.J.M. (author), Nijmeijer, H. (author), van der Knaap, A.C.M. (author), TNO Industrie en Techniek (author)In this paper a modular truck semi-trailer model is developed in the multi-body toolbox SimMechanics, which is part of MATLAB/Simulink. It can be used to analyse a wide range of active control solutions (anywhere in the model), as well as the influence of passive vehicle modifications. As the model is modular, it is relatively easy (compared to...article 2009

Verburg, D.J. (author), van der Knaap, A.C.M. (author), Ploeg, J. (author), TNO Wegtransportmiddelen (author)The application of driver support systems and automated (intelligent) transport systems is getting increasingly important because they have the potential to enhance the efficiency and safety of today’s road transport without expanding the traffic infrastructure considerably. The high safety and reliability demands of these complex systems make...conference paper 2002

Ploeg, J. (author), van der Knaap, A.C.M. (author), Verburg, D.J. (author), TNO Wegtransportmiddelen (author)Within the framework of a full scale hardware-in-the-loop intelligent vehicle simulator called VEHIL, an automatic guided vehicle is developed in order to simulate traffic participants. This vehicle, called ATS/AGV, is based on a four wheel drive and four wheel steer concept which allows for a high handling performance in combination with the...conference paper 2002
