Vehicle Control Systems Dissertation
1. Introduction 1.1 Background on Cruise Control Cruise control sustains the velocity of a car, retards with no outside command and also controls the torque in electric autos (EVs) hence efficient utilization of energy. EV systems compensate for factors such as incline, decline as well as wind drag, something that internal combustion engine vehicles cannot do. Advanced versions like the adaptive cruise control enhance efficiency, safety and the comfort level of driving. It is especially suitable for EVs because the accurate control of torque improves the energy efficiency and range of the vehicle. Cruise control is also built into more advanced systems for motor vehicle control such as the automatic braking system and lane control, putting it at the heart of semi-autonomous vehicles. 1.2 Importance of EVs for the Study The area of this research is electric vehicles (EVs) because it is energy-saving, eco-friendly and equipped with sophisticated control systems. Thus, the applica...
