I/UCRC: Smart Vehicle Concepts Center - Phase II

智能车辆概念中心（SVC）提案# 1238286 Singh该提案旨在为智能车辆概念（SVC）建立一个单站点II期I/UCRC。该中心的使命集中于共同感兴趣的竞争前技术和研究;智能车辆部件和子系统（地面和航空航天器）;基于新型智能材料的致动器和传感器;用于车辆开发工作的新设备;上级动态响应和安静平稳的操作;改进性能;增强安全性;以及更高的能源效率。拟议的第二阶段中心将专注于汽车和航空航天车辆设计的新趋势和新兴趋势，其中智能结构，下一代悬挂或安装设备，大大改进的执行器或阀门以及智能传感器将被集成，以开发未来的车辆部件或子系统。为了实现其目标，第二阶段中心将与其工业合作伙伴合作，在4个战略重点领域进行研发和教育：（1）界面机制;（2）自适应噪声，振动和粗糙度;（3）安全性;和（4）能源。该网站将重点关注基于活性材料的复合材料、压电和磁致伸缩材料、铁磁形状记忆合金和基于MR流体的设备，并实现力、运动、噪声振动控制性能目标，包括上级光谱带宽。SVC将继续成为美国唯一一个能够为工业和其他教育机构提供世界级信息的主要中心，从而实现21世纪世纪汽车和航空航天系统所需的力和运动。 俄勒冈州立大学的团队是唯一准备开发和发展中心，与跨学科的重点建模，仿真，设计和控制的智能汽车子系统和组件。SVC不仅提供技术成果和解决方案，而且是一个主要的教育和培训来源，它将帮助美国汽车（甚至航空航天）行业在日益困难的全球经济中保持竞争力。俄亥俄州州立大学在研究、教育和与汽车工业的合作方面有着出色的记录。这种合作将代表研究和教育的独特协同作用，不仅有利于提出建议的大学，学生，社区，而且有利于整个行业和美国经济。俄勒冈州立大学的研究人员将积极努力，通过现有的外展校园组织和有针对性的招聘活动，招募女性和少数民族本科生和研究生参加SVC。

Center for Smart Vehicle Concepts (SVC) Proposal # 1238286 Singh This proposal seeks funding to establish a single-site Phase II I/UCRC for Smart Vehicle Concepts (SVC). The center mission focuses on precompetitive technology and research of common interest; smart vehicle components and sub-systems (ground and aerospace vehicles); new smart material-based actuators and sensors; new devices for vehicle development work; superior dynamic response and quiet and smooth operations; improved performance; enhanced safety; and higher energy efficiency. The proposed Phase II Center will focus on novel and emerging trends in automotive and aerospace vehicle design where smart structures, next-generation suspension or mounting devices, vastly improved actuators or valves, and intelligent sensors will be integrated to develop vehicle components or sub-systems of the future. In order to achieve its objectives, the Phase II Center will cooperate with its industrial partners to conduct R&D and education in 4 strategic thrust areas: (1) Interfacial Mechanisms; (2) Adaptive Noise, Vibration, and Harshness; (3) Safety; and (4) Energy. The site will focus on active material based composites, piezoelectric and magnetostrictive materials, ferromagnetic shape memory alloys, and MR fluid based devices, and achieve force, motion, noise & vibration control performance goals including superior spectral bandwidth. The SVC will continue to be the only major center in the U.S. that can provide to industry and other educational institutions world-class information, thereby enabling the forces and motions necessary for 21st century automotive and aerospace systems. The OSU team is uniquely poised to develop and grow the center, with interdisciplinary emphasis on modeling, simulation, design, and control of smart vehicle subsystems and components. By providing not only technical results and solutions but also being a major educational and training source, the SVC will help the U.S. automotive (and even aerospace) industries to remain competitive in an increasingly difficult global economy. The Ohio State University has an excellent track record in research, education and cooperation with vehicle industry. This cooperation will represent a unique synergy in research and education that will benefit not only the proposing universities, students, community, but also the industry and the U.S. economy at large. The researchers at OSU will aggressively work to recruit women and minority undergraduate and graduate students to participate in the SVC through existing outreach campus organizations and targeted recruitment activities.
