Initially, key indicators for determining the safety state of intelligent vehicles are identified by analyzing the vehicle-following operational conditions on icy and snow-covered roads. Subsequently, a safety state identification model for intelligent vehicle operation in following scenarios on icy roads is constructed based on these indicators. Finally, a simulation scenario model is developed using the co-simulation platform of CarSim and Simulink to perform simulation analysis and validation of the proposed safety state identification model. The results demonstrate that the constructed model integrates three key indicators: Time-to-Collision (TTC), Time-to-Stop (TTS), and Time Headway (TH). To unify the evaluation of different indicators, a dimensionless parameter termed the safety degree is introduced, which synthesizes the influence of TTC, TTS, and TH into a single criterion for distinguishing safe states from hazardous ones. The following safety degree of vehicles increases with the increase of TTC and TH and decreases with the increase of TTS. During vehicle-following operations, the safety degree decreases from 1 to 0.3 when the leading vehicle decelerates, indicating a risky operational state, while it increases gradually when the leading vehicle accelerates. After 11 s, the leading vehicle's speed exceeds its initial value, and the safety degree of the following vehicle rises almost linearly, reflecting an improvement in the evaluated safety state. These results confirm that the proposed model satisfies the requirements for judging and predicting the operational safety state of intelligent vehicles in following scenarios on icy and snowy roads, and it provides theoretical support for the safety assessment of intelligent driving under complex low-adhesion conditions.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":100030,"journal":{"name":"Advanced Control for Applications","volume":"8 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2026-02-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/adc2.70044","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147275069","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The reduction of the 11th-order Renewable Energy (RE) integrated power system model to a 2nd-order model is achieved using a combination of Pade approximation (PA) and direct truncation (DT) (PA-DT) method.

The fuzzy dual PID controller utilizes fuzzy logic to adapt to changing conditions and improve control, while the genetic algorithm optimizes the controller parameters to further enhance performance. The study uses velocity and position PID controllers because velocity PID controls acceleration well and position PID controls position well, and the incorporation of an adaptive fuzzy combination of two controllers ensures optimal performance of the suspension system under all operating conditions. To avoid the issue of suspension distance narrowing and to prevent instability in the controller, the low-pass filtered displacement response of unsprung mass is utilized as the reference for the position PID controller. Quantitatively, according to the ISO-8608 road entry for the goal function, the dual PID achieved a 53.35% improvement over the passive state, 6.57% better than dual PD, 33.06% over the Velocity PID, and 32.93% over the Position PID.

The dynamic model of the coaxial rotor drone is formulated and differential flatness properties are proven about it. To apply the nonlinear optimal control method, the dynamic model of the coaxial rotor drone undergoes approximate linearization with first-order Taylor-series expansion and through the computation of the associated Jacobian matrices. To apply multi-loop flatness-based control, the dynamic model of the UAV is decomposed in two subsystems connected in chained form. This means that the state vector of the second subsystem becomes virtual control input to the first subsystem, while the virtual control input of the first subsystem becomes a setpoints vector for the second subsystem. The two proposed control schemes ensure stabilization and precise flight-path tracking for the coaxial rotor UAV.

The converter employs two independent Buck and Boost stages, enabling decoupled control loops and fast tracking of rapidly varying reference signals. A combined PI–SMC framework is proposed, where the outer loop regulates the output voltage using a PI controller, and the inner loop controls the inductor current via a smooth Sliding Mode Control (SMC) law based on an arctan(s) switching function. This smooth SMC formulation effectively reduces chattering and high-frequency oscillations while improving tracking accuracy and robustness. Simulation results show short settling time, fast recovery under abrupt input and load variations, and stable performance across the full Buck–Boost operating range. Quantitative NRMSE (Normalized Root Mean Square Error) analysis confirms high tracking quality, with the output voltage exceeding 90% and the inductor current reaching about 98%.
