A Cyclist Detection and Tracking System for Heavy Goods Vehicles
… A Cyclist Detection and Tracking System for Heavy Goods Vehicles Author: Yan KE Heavy Goods Vehicles (HGVs) contribute to a large portion of collisions with cyclists, and a disproportionate number of these are caused by construction vehicles. Among all these collisions, the sides-of-HGV …

Vision-based trailer pose estimation for articulated vehicles
Articulated Heavy Goods Vehicles (HGVs) are more efficient than conventional rigid lorries, but exhibit reduced low-speed manoeuvrability and high-speed stability. Technologies such as autonomous reversing and path-following trailer steering can mitigate this, but practical limitations of the …

Influence of accelerator pedal force feedback on truck drivers' speed control
… consumption and harmful exhaust emissions of Heavy Goods Vehicles (HGVs). Vehicle manufacturers and operators alike are having to investigate and find new ways of making reductions. It is thought that improving driver behaviour offers significant potential for these reductions in fuel …

An Experimental Investigation of Underbody and Near Wake Aerodynamics of Heavy Goods Vehicles
… strive to reduce the fuel consumption of Heavy Goods Vehicles (HGVs). At motorway speeds, fuel consumption is highly dependent on aerodynamic drag, a considerable proportion of which is attributed to the significantly less well documented trailer underbody. Moreover, the underbody flow …
