This figure was up 13.5% compared to the same time period during 2011. During winter, we know driving only becomes more treacherous. Even though you live in an area where thick snow is expected for several months every year, fatal accidents still happen frequently throughout the season. At Dodge Chrysler Jeep City, we want to make sure you stay safe during the winter months, even if you haven’t bought a new car from us. If you have purchased a new vehicle, we want to make sure you and the vehicle both go unharmed throughout the season. So, we’ve compiled this guide, along with a recommendation for a good all-weather Jeep, to help ensure your safety. -
Performance Analysis of Constant Speed Local Abstacle Avoidance Controller Using a MPC Algorithym on Granular Terrain Nicholas Haraus Marquette University

Master's Theses (2009 -). 443. http://epublications.marquette.edu/theses_open/443 PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS OF A CONSTANT SPEED LOCAL OBSTACLE AVOIDANCE CONTROLLER USING A MPC ALGORITHM ON GRANULAR TERRAIN by Nicholas Haraus, B.S.M.E. A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School, Marquette University, in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science Milwaukee, Wisconsin December 2017 ABSTRACT PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS OF A CONSTANT SPEED LOCAL OBSTACLE AVOIDANCE CONTROLLER USING A MPC ALGORITHM ON GRANULAR TERRAIN Nicholas Haraus, B.S.M.E. Marquette University, 2017 A Model Predictive Control (MPC) LIDAR-based constant speed local obstacle avoidance algorithm has been implemented on rigid terrain and granular terrain in Chrono to examine the robustness of this control method. Provided LIDAR data as well as a target location, a vehicle can route itself around obstacles as it encounters them and arrive at an end goal via an optimal route. This research is one important step towards eventual implementation of autonomous vehicles capable of navigating on all terrains. Using Chrono, a multibody physics API, this controller has been tested on a complex multibody physics HMMWV model representing the plant in this study. A penalty-based DEM approach is used to model contacts on both rigid ground and granular terrain. -
Analysis of the Rigid Multibody Tire
Umea University A Thesis presented for the Bachelor Degree in Physics Analysis of the rigid multibody tire Ruben Yruretagoyena Conde supervised by Dr.Martin Servin February 12, 2018 Abstract A brief description of the multibody system mechanics is given as the first step in this thesis to present the dynamical equations which will be the main tool to analyze the two-body tire model. After establishing the basic theory about multibody systems to understand the main character in the thesis (the tire) all the physical components playing in the tire terrain interaction will be defined together with some of the developed ways and models to describe the tire rolling on non-deformable terrain and the tyre rolling on the deformable terrain. The two-body tire model definition and general description will be introduced. Using the tools acquired on the course of the thesis the dynamic equations will be solved for the particular case of the two-body tire model rolling on a flat rigid surface. After solving the equation we are going to find out some incongruences with respect to reality and then we are going to have a proposal to adjust the model to agree with real tires.

Snow Tire Authorization for State-Owned Vehicles
Snow tire authorization for State-Owned Vehicles Per Utah Administrative Code R920-6 Traction Device/Tire Chain Requirements, snow tires or chains will be required for 2 wheel drive vehicles to drive in specific areas OR on designated roads and when UDOT or law enforcement agencies determine that road conditions require these devices. Though Fleet Operations will still restrict utilizing chains, we will accommodate the installation of three peak mountain snowflake tires as necessary, but only on a limited number of 2 wheel drive vehicles. If your agency has 4X4 or AWD vehicles, we ask that you utilize these vehicles to travel in adverse weather conditions – particularly on the designated restricted roads - instead of having snow tires installed on all of your 2 wheel drive fleet vehicles. We also recommend that you consider renting a 4X4 or AWD if you must operate vehicles on those roads during extreme weather conditions. If your agency determines that it needs to have the special snow tires installed on any of its 2 wheel drive vehicles, Fleet Operations requires that the attached authorization form be completed and submitted in order to receive authorization for the installation of the three peak mountain snowflake tires. Each vehicle that you determine will need to have the special snow tires, will require a separate authorization form. Agencies that utilize the three peak mountain snowflake tires will not be approved to have them installed before November 1st and will be required to have them removed from the vehicle by May 15th of each year. If the tires being removed from the vehicle have more than 3/32” of tread, the agency will be required to store the take-off tires (snow tires or regular tires) until they can be used in the appropriate season. -

Winter Driving Tips
Yosemite Peregrine Lodge Encouraging Adventure And Defining Relaxation. Winter Driving Conditions (October through May) A season of snow & solitude Yosemite National Park is wonderful in winter. The biggest challenge for many visitors is how to get to the Park to experience the beauty and wonder. The good news is that once you have arrived in Yosemite Valley, you can park your car or get off the bus and use the free Valley shuttle to get around. If Badger Pass is open, you can ride the free bus up to this ski resort for snow sports or snow play. But first you have to get there! Here are some possible ways to get into Yosemite National Park for your winter visit. DRIVING If you choose to drive, a good route to take is through Oakhurst CA, on highway 41. This is because Oakhurst is the best (largest) town to not only purchase groceries and gas, but has a couple of good automotive stores to purchase tire chains (mandatory in the park during snow), freeze proof windshield washer fluid, window snow/scrappers and more. Either way you enter the park, Hwy 120 via the Big Oak Flat Entrance or highway 41 you will be driving at different altitudes during your travel which may or may not have snow or ice. The north entrance, highway 120 starts out gently and may not have snow until you leave the Yosemite Valley which is at 4000 feet. We often get snow at our lodge when the valley is raining. Our lodge is at 6000 feet in elevation and gets much more snow then the valley. -
