Vehicle Dynamics and Intelligent Control for Connected Vehicles
This special issue belongs to the section "Vehicle Engineering".
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In the era of intelligent transportation, connected vehicles are reshaping the future of mobility by weaving vehicles, infrastructure, and cloud systems into a seamless cyber–physical network. This Special Issue is dedicated to cutting‑edge research at the intersection of vehicle dynamics and intelligent control, aiming to capture the latest advances that enable safe, efficient, and adaptive operation of connected vehicle systems.
In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following:
- Vehicle dynamics modeling;
- Intelligent control strategies;
- Integrated chassis control;
- path planning or motion planning;
- Trajectory tracking control;
- Safety and robustness analysis of vehicles.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.
