Want a mini project for a topic under Dynamical systems for an MSc student in Applied Mathematical Modelling
Model :- Consider a platoon of two automated long-distance
freight trucks (i.e. a “micro-platoon”) To reduce air drag, and
therefore fuel consumption, we seek to maintain a close distance
between the two vehicles without risking collision. Assume you can
measure the distance between trucks, and may control the propulsion
of each truck.
we write the equations of motion using Newton’s second law for each
vehicle:
