The scope and market attractiveness for electric vehicles (EVs) has been surging since the past several years. This is in response to growing calls for environmental sustainability and reduction in carbon footprint. Presently, there are five million electric vehicles on the world’s roads. China dominates the global electric vehicles market, followed by Europe and the United States. Technological advancements have paved the way for substantial price cuts in battery prices, key stimulators being research and development in battery chemistry and burgeoning battery production for electric vehicles. The fall in battery prices is attributed to increased economies of scale generated by the EV market. Unfortunately, the novel coronavirus outbreak, commonly known as COVID-19, has crippled the entire world. With the number of cases rising exponentially every day, the international community is finding it exceedingly difficult to seek treatment for the infected patients. The rate of infections is asymmetrically distributed. While countries such as Singapore are witnessing a resurgence, Western Europe has reached a plateau, thus debating whether they should reopen their economies or not.

European Union confirmed the “Vision Zero” objective in June 2019, as to achieve zero deaths and serious injuries by 2050. This can only be attained through connected and autonomous vehicles integrated into intelligent transport systems and a sustainable mobility system. This requires a cost-effective, fast,and efficient development process for advanced connected and autonomous vehicle functions. In this article, a methodology to develop low-speed Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), which is one of the most important functions of an autonomous vehicle, is explained. Vehicle tracking at slow speeds is a problem especially for conventional vehicles with high levels of nonlinearities in the powertrain system. As a part of a university-industry collaboration project “SAE level 3 autonomous bus development”, a flexible and realistic discrete plant model including longitudinal vehicle and powertrain model has been developed and discrete low-speed ACC is designed. The plant model aims to perform detailed and realistic software tests of autonomous features, which interfaces with the vehicle controllers. OKAN_UTAS autocorrectedmulti-parameter longitudinal model is integrated. For engine modeling via shaft dynamometer the 3D map of the engine is reproduced. The transmission characteristics were prepared through the road tests. To increase the reliability of the developed functions, Software in the Loop (SIL) and Model in the Loop (MIL) simulations were conducted before the on-road vehicle tests. Finally, C code with the MISRA C standard of ACC is generated and embedded into a real-time platform. The plant model, ACC design, and Model in the Loop test results are presented.

A new collision safer device is proposed to divert the collision force in the automobile collisions and partially convert the harmful force into non-harmful force, therefore, it will substantially reduce the harmful impact force on the people and on the vehicles during the collisions, lives can be saved and property damage can be reduced. The proposed collision safer device has one free rotation wheel installed horizontally at the vehicle lower front left and right corners, respectively. The wheels will be the first contact of the vehicle in non-perpendicular forward collisions, the collision force component parallel to the collision surface will cause the wheel rotating and make the vehicle rolling slide along the direction of the parallel force component, therefore, the collision will be softer and less harmful, so lives could be saved and property damage could be reduced. The collision test with mini 3D printed models shows that the collision safer device will significantly extend the moving distance after the vehicle collides into a roadside crash barrier in the relatively small collision angle and give the vehicles behind more time and distance to slow down, so the severity of the rear-end collision will be reduced, lives will be saved, even the collision can be avoided. This collision safer device is simple, low cost and can be added to the current design of all types of common vehicles without major modification of the structures.

Increasingly stringent emissions regulations and environmental concerns have caused interest in the development of alternative fuels for internal combustion engines. Recently biobutanol, bioethanol and biodiesel emerged as an alternative fuel due to their oxygenated nature. This paper investigates the physical stability of ethanol-diesel blends using Cottonseed oil methyl esters diesel emulsifier as additives, subsequently analysis of physio-chemical properties. Furthermore, experimental tests were carried out to study the performance (fuel consumption, thermal efficiency, power, exhaust gas temperature) and emissions (CO, NOx, HC and Smoke) of Direct Injection (DI) engine fuelled with the various blends compared with those fuelled by diesel. The blends used for this study were D50B50, D60B30E10, D60B20E15DEE5 And D40B40E10DEE10.

In the past years, there has been an unremitting pursuit of lighter and safer energy-absorbing structural elements in the automotive body structure for better fuel economy, less gas emission and passenger safety. Recently, crashworthiness of advanced structures and materials with graded effects raised enormous concerns [1-3]. Graded structures/ materials could considerably reduce weight and improve performance by making reasonable designs of the gradient parameters.

Considering the theoretical characteristics of grey system method and neural network, a grey neural network prediction method was proposed by combining the grey prediction model and the neural network in order to improve the accuracy of vehicle vibration prediction. On the purpose of verifying the proposed model, the vibration data of several measuring points under different traveling speed of a pick-up truck were both tested in an experimental way and predicted in a theoretical way. The results show that it is feasible to apply the proposed grey neural network prediction method to calculate the vehicle vibration data, which improves the prediction accuracy effectively.

The objective of the present research is twofold; first to assess the level of safety compliance practices among artisans and secondly, to measure the impacts of unplanned lost time emanating from accident on time performance of small-scale auto maintenance firms. Ninety different auto-maintenance jobs executed by automobile, heavy duty, generator and panel beater auto firms between, Januarys to December, 2016 were analyzed using direct observation. Furthermore, primary data collected were analyzed using MS Excel 2013 and Minitab 17 software. Results revealed the mean performance rating of workshops on the availability and usage of personal protective equipment as 143.9 and 154.7. While 224.2 and 302.7 constitutes respective poor usage rate and non-availability of personal protective equipment in the respective workshops. Results further revealed 58.2% as average productive lost time rate resulting from accident occurrence. Conversely, regression analysis revealed that a unit increase of 659.2, 63.5 and 82.8 in accident, severity and lost time index, caused a decreased of -150.8 in overall productivity lost factor. With a coefficient of determination (R2 ) of 72.01% at p-value less than 0.005. Hence, a positive and significant relationship between accident and auto mechanics time performance exist. Therefore, sensitization of stakeholders in this sector on the usage of personal protective equipment and the need to make safety their priority as well as regular inspection for safety compliance by regulatory bodies are recommended to build customers trust and improve productivity in this sector

For development of efficient and economic car bodies, high performance lightweight materials such as endless fiber reinforced plastics (FRP) have gained importance. However, the systematic engineering and design with composite materials and hybrid combinations of FRP and metallic materials are extremely challenging. Therefore, the whole design process has to be supported with new methods, which should be applied in the early stage of body design to avoid wrong decisions.
