In this paper, we introduce an open-source model MOVESTAR to calculate the fuel consumption and pollutant emissions of motor vehicles. This model is developed based on U.S. Environmental Protection Agencys (EPA) Motor Vehicle Emission Simulator (MOVES), which provides an accurate estimate of vehicle emissions under a wide range of user-defined conditions. Originally, MOVES requires users to specify many parameters through its software, including vehicle types, time periods, geographical areas, pollutants, vehicle operating characteristics, and road types. In this paper, MOVESTAR is developed as a simplified version, which only takes the second-by-second vehicle speed data and vehicle type as inputs. To enable easy integration of this model, its source code is provided in various languages, including Python, MATLAB and C++. A case study is introduced in this paper to illustrate the effectiveness of the model in the development of advanced vehicle technology.

We introduce a hash chain-based secure cluster. Here, secure cluster refers to a set of vehicles having vehicular secrecy capacity of more than a reference value. Since vehicle communication is performed in such a secure cluster, basically secure vehicle communication can be expected. Secure hash clusters can also be expected by sharing hash chains derived from vehicle identification numbers. We are also convinced that our paper is essential for future autonomous vehicles by providing secure clustering services using MEC. In the near term, autonomous driving, our paper makes it possible to expect strong and practically safe vehicle communications.
Wireless networks have been widely deployed for many Internet-of-Things (IoT) applications, like smart cities and precision agriculture. Low Power Wide Area Networking (LPWAN) is an emerging IoT networking paradigm to meet three key requirements of IoT applications, i.e., low cost, large scale deployment and high energy efficiency. Among all available LPWAN technologies, LoRa networking has attracted much attention from both academia and industry, since it specifies an open standard and allows us to build autonomous LPWAN networks without any third-party infrastructure. Many LoRa networks have been developed recently, e.g., managing solar plants in Carson City, Nevada, USA and power monitoring in Lyon and Grenoble, France. However, there are still many research challenges to develop practical LoRa networks, e.g., link coordination, resource allocation, reliable transmissions and security. This article provides a comprehensive survey on LoRa networks, including the technical challenges of deploying LoRa networks and recent solutions. Based on our detailed analysis of current solutions, some open issues of LoRa networking are discussed. The goal of this survey paper is to inspire more works on improving the performance of LoRa networks and enabling more practical deployments.
We develop and analyze a measure-valued fluid model keeping track of parking and charging requirements of electric vehicles in a local distribution grid. We show how this model arises as an accumulation point of an appropriately scaled sequence of stochastic network models. The invariant point of the fluid model encodes the electrical characteristics of the network and the stochastic behavior of its users, and it is characterized, when it exists, by the solution of a so-called Alternating Current Optimal Power Flow (ACOPF) problem.
By new advancements in vehicle manufacturing; evaluation of vehicle quality assurance has got a more critical issue. Today noise and vibration generated inside and outside the vehicles are more important factors for customers than previous. So far several researchers have focused on interior noise transfer path analysis and the results have been published in related papers but each method has its own limitations. In present work, the vibration transfer path analysis and vibration path ranking of a car interior has been performed. As interior vibration is a source of structural borne noise problem, thus the results of this research can be used to present the structural borne noise state in a vehicle. The method proposed in this paper, in opposite of the earlier methods, do not need to disassemble the power train from the chassis. The procedure shows a good ability of vibration path ranking in a vehicle and is an effective tool to diagnose the vibration problem inside the vehicle. The simulated vibration spectrums in different speeds of the engine have a good compliance with the tested results however some incompatibilities exist and have been discussed in details. The simulated results show the strength of the method in engine mount optimization.
Existing coordinated cyber-attack detection methods have low detection accuracy and efficiency and poor generalization ability due to difficulties dealing with unbalanced attack data samples, high data dimensionality, and noisy data sets. This paper proposes a model for cyber and physical data fusion using a data link for detecting attacks on a Cyber-Physical Power System (CPPS). Two-step principal component analysis (PCA) is used for classifying the systems operating status. An adaptive synthetic sampling algorithm is used to reduce the imbalance in the categories samples. The loss function is improved according to the feature intensity difference of the attack event, and an integrated classifier is established using a classification algorithm based on the cost-sensitive gradient boosting decision tree (CS-GBDT). The simulation results show that the proposed method provides higher accuracy, recall, and F-Score than comparable algorithms.
