Research on tire cornering force and self-aligning torque at low speeds and high speeds. by Tetsuaki KAWATA, Tadashi KOUNO, Hitoshi SAKUMA

“…Tire slip angle at high speeds is ± 0.65degrees with a 0.2Hz sine waveform equivalent to a lane change that is generally performed on highways. Tire slip angle at low speed is 0 to 1.3degrees with 6.5deg/sec, which is also generally performed on congested urban roads avoid other traffics. …”

Curve contour detection based on Helmholtz principle and application to road white line detection by Hiroyuki FURUSHOU, Hiroshi MOURI

“…White line detection is widely used in driver support systems used mainly in highway or major arterial road. As the common road will be the target of operational area for autonomous vehicle, it is thought to be necessary to develop a new detection algorithm that can deal with various types of road. …”
