Resolving Knudsen Layer by High Order Moment ExpansionYuwei Fan, Jun Li, Ruo Li et al.
We model the Knudsen layer in Kramers' problem by linearized high order hyperbolic moment system. Due to the hyperbolicity, the boundary conditions of the moment system is properly reduced from the kinetic boundary condition. For Kramers' problem, we give the analytical solutions of moment systems. With the order increasing of the moment model, the solutions are approaching to the solution of the linearized BGK kinetic equation. The velocity profile in the Knudsen layer is captured with improved accuracy for a wide range of accommodation coefficients.

TiEV: The Tongji Intelligent Electric Vehicle in the Intelligent Vehicle Future Challenge of ChinaJunqiao Zhao, Chen Ye, Yan Wu et al.
TiEV is an autonomous driving platform implemented by Tongji University of China. The vehicle is drive-by-wire and is fully powered by electricity. We devised the software system of TiEV from scratch, which is capable of driving the vehicle autonomously in urban paths as well as on fast express roads. We describe our whole system, especially novel modules of probabilistic perception fusion, incremental mapping, the 1st and the 2nd planning and the overall safety concern. TiEV finished 2016 and 2017 Intelligent Vehicle Future Challenge of China held at Changshu. We show our experiences on the development of autonomous vehicles and future trends.
