Abstract

This paper intends to achieve two primary objectives. The first objective is to develop driving cycles for classified roads incorporating a vehicle's both driving activities and emission characteristics, using the data collected by Portable Emission Measurement System (PEMS). The second objective is to develop an evaluation approach of driving cycles in which the 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. The paper conducts a comparison of driving cycles developed by the proposed method versus the traditional methodology. Results show that driving cycles developed by the proposed method can better represent the emission characteristics of on-road vehicles.
