Summary: A full X-by-wire chassis coordinated control scheme is proposed in this paper by utilizing Direct Yaw-moment Control, Active Front Steering, Anti-Slip Regulation, and Active Roll Control. A vehicle state prediction module is established to generate reference vehicle states and a decentralized event-triggered discrete sliding mode control scheme is developed to track these references by coordinating the subsystems. The hardware-in-the-loop tests show that the proposed scheme can improve vehicle stability, handling performance, comfort, and rollover prevention.

Summary: The study found that descriptive norms, teleworking and e-learning, and attitudes toward COVID-19 have a positive impact on travel frequency and activity-travel behavior changes during the beginning of COVID-19 pandemic. Additionally, ICT experience influenced a decrease in travel frequency and ride-hailing use. While personal attributes did not significantly affect activity-travel behavior change, they directly influenced ICT use. People living outside of Java Island had a higher travel frequency during the beginning of COVID-19 pandemic.

Summary: This paper proposes a trajectory optimization approach for high-speed trains aiming to reduce traction energy consumption and increase riding comfort. The approach can also achieve energy-saving effects by optimizing the operation time between stations. The optimization model considers factors such as discrete throttle settings, neutral zones, and sectionalized tunnel resistance. The model is then discretized and turned into a multi-step decision optimization problem. Simulation results with real-world data demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach in saving energy and improving riding comfort.

Summary: Traffic forecasting is a challenging problem due to the complexity and non-stationary nature of traffic data. Graph Convolution Network (GCN) based methods have shown promising performance in this area. However, current methods lack the utilization of spatial and temporal properties in graph construction. This paper proposes a novel dynamic graph convolution network that adaptively constructs dynamic road network graphs for traffic forecasting, achieving better performance than state-of-the-art methods.
