Journal ArticleDOI
A Review of Shared Control for Automated Vehicles: Theory and Applications
TL;DR: The complete field of shared control in automated vehicles is covered with an emphasis on these aspects: 1) concept, 2) categories, 3) algorithms, and 4) status of technology.
Journal ArticleDOI
A model for squeeze film dampers operating with air entrainment and validation with experiments
Sergio E. Diaz,Luis San Andrés +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a modified Reynolds equation for prediction of the pressure in a homogeneous bubbly mixture flow is advanced along with an empirical formula for estimation of the amount of air entrained in an open-ended damper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of Squeeze Film Dampers Operating With Bubbly Lubricants
TL;DR: In this paper, a model for describing the motion of a bubbly fluid in an open-ended squeeze film dampers operating with circular centered journal orbits was proposed for a test rig operating with a controlled air in oil mixture.
Journal ArticleDOI
Flow Visualization and Forces From a Squeeze Film Damper Operating With Natural Air Entrainment
Luis San Andrés,Sergio E. Diaz +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors measured dynamic film pressures and high-speed photographs of the flow field in an open-ended Squeeze Film Damper (SFD) operating with natural free air entrainment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Air Entrainment Versus Lubricant Vaporization in Squeeze Film Dampers: An Experimental Assessment of Their Fundamental Differences
Sergio E. Diaz,L. A. San Andres +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors demonstrate that operation with low levels of external pressurization, moderate to large whirl frequencies, and lubricant discharge to ambient leads to entrapment of air within the damper film lands.
