As an important product of road freight transportation informatization, the application of network freight platform is one of the important ways to help the road freight industry achieve carbon reduction. Based on the investigation and analysis of the carbon reduction status of many network freight enterprises in China and abroad, it is concluded that the integration of logistics resources, replacement of new energy vehicles, deployment of carbon emission management system, and enterprise management carbon reduction are important ways to reduce the carbon emission of road freight. Among them, the integration of logistics resources and the replacement of new energy vehicles have great potential to develop Chinese Certified Emission Reduction (CCER) projects. At present, there is no unified calculation method for carbon emission reduction in China’s road freight industry, the development of a set of methodologies applicable to the CCER trading market at this stage can serve as a good support for the development of carbon reduction projects in the network freight platform under the CCER system.

In automobiles, electronic control components can be connected into a local area network through the CAN protocol for information transmission. The in-car entertainment system plays an important role in interacting with users among these electronic components. In order to meet the users’ ecological needs and provide a friendly interface operation experience, the Android system has been introduced into the in-car entertainment system. This study mainly explores the implementation of accessing the CAN network through Android applications using the Model-View-Controller (MVC), Model-View-Presenter (MVP), and Model-View-View Model (MVVM) design patterns, and compares these 3 design patterns to analyze their advantages and disadvantages in accessing the CAN network. Ultimately, it concludes that the MVVM design pattern is more suitable for the application of accessing the CAN network in the In-Vehicle Infotainment system.

With the establishment of China’s dual carbon goals and the continuous tightening of regulations, commercial vehicles have also embarked on a path of transformation and upgrading. The domestic commercial vehicle market is gradually saturated, the subsidy policies for new energy commercial vehicles continue to decline. In order to study the development trends of new energy commercial vehicles in China, through literature review and investigation research, the development of commercial vehicles in China is summarized as follows: (1) The commercial vehicle market has shifted from incremental development to stock competition stage, (2) Overseas markets have become new growth poles, (3) The development of new energy commercial vehicles is shifting from policy driven to policy market dual driven, (4) In the short term, multiple technological routes will continue to coexist and evolve, (5) Innovative business models will usher in rapid development.
In the study of stability control for intelligent vehicle, the changes of model parameters and external disturbances such as lateral wind and road adhesion coefficient, which may lead to instability and poor robust stability. In order to improve the riding stability of intelligent vehicles under random interference, a stability control strategy based on Active Front Steering(AFS) and Direct Yaw moment Control(DYC) coordinated control is proposed. Firstly, a two-degree-of-freedom dynamic model of the vehicle is established. Secondly, a front wheel active steering controller based on robust adaptive sliding mode control is designed by combining adaptive law and sliding mode control to suppress the disturbance in the vehicle running, which solves the robust control problem of nonlinear systems with time-varying parameters, uncertainty and unknown disturbance. The yaw moment controller based on genetic optimization fuzzy control is used to solve the additional yaw moment to restore the stable running of the vehicle. Based on Simulink and CarSim simulation platform, the stability control method is simulated under step disturbance, sinusoidal disturbance and mixed disturbance. The results show that the coordinated control significantly reduces the additional yaw torque output of the vehicle, which can be well inhibited interference and fully ensure riding stability of the vehicle.
