Portable Emission Measurement System-Based Approach to Developing and Evaluating Driving Cycles for Air Quality Assessment (open access)

Portable Emission Measurement System-Based Approach to Developing and Evaluating Driving Cycles for Air Quality Assessment

"The first objective is to develop driving cycles for classified roads incorporating both a vehicle's driving activities and its emission characteristics, using the data collected by Portable Emission Measurement System (PEMS), which was neither available nor has ever been used in developing driving cycles. A comprehensive database is established for the collected data and a sophisticated computer program is developed to generate the specific driving cycles. The second objective is to develop an evaluation approach of driving cycles in which Vehicle Specific Power (VSP), a parameter that can readily connect the driving modes with emissions, is used to evaluate how well the driving cycles can represent the driving and emission characteristics on real roads."
