Abstract

Work continued on the study of coal log pipeline research. Individual projects described include fast compaction of coal logs; effect of cooling on coal log quality; coal log capping; effectiveness of adding fiber to enhance coal log quality; fabrication using hydrophobic binders; [...]

Abstract

Navigation canals are used for transport purposes. In order to allow safe navigation the water level should be kept in a certain range around the Normal Navigation Level (NNL). The water level is disturbed by known and unknown inputs, like tributaries, municipal water flows, rain, [...]

Abstract

Detection and tracking of other vehicles and lane geometry will be required for many future intelligent driver assistance systems. By integrating the estimation of these two features into a single filter, a more optimal utilization of the available information can be achieved. For [...]

Abstract

Mención Internacional en el título de doctor The technological advances in the Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) are exponentially improving over the last century. The objective is to provide intelligent and innovative services for the different modes of transportation, towards [...]

Abstract

Inland navigation networks are large-scale systems that can be described by using the nonlinear Saint-Venant partial differential equations. However, as there is no analytical solution for them, simplified models are used instead for modeling purposes. This work addresses the modeling [...]

Abstract

Trabajo presentado al 19th IFAC World Congress celebrado del 24 al 29 de agosto de 2014 en Cape Town (Sudafrica). In recent years, inland navigation networks benefit from the innovation of the instrumentation and SCADA systems. These data acquisition and control systems lead to a [...]

Abstract

Inland navigation networks are mainly used for transport with economic and environmental benefits. In a climate change context which leads to the scarcity of the water resource, the control of navigation levels and the supervision of these networks become crucial. Thus, this paper [...]

Abstract

Trabajo presentado a la 13th European Workshop on Advanced Control and Diagnosis (ACD 2016). Inland waterways are large-scale networks used principally for navigation. Even if the transport planning is an important issue, the water resource management is a crucial point. Indeed, [...]

Abstract

network-wide coordination system for heavy-duty vehicle platooning with the purpose of reducing fuel consumption is developed. Road freight is by far the dominating mode for overland transport with over 60 % modal share in the OECD countries and is thus critically important for the [...]
