Abstract: An obstacle existing ahead of a vehicle is
recognized to detect information on the obstacle.
Information on travelling conditions of the
vehicle is detected. The steering performance of
the vehicle is changed for controlling behaviour
of the vehicle. It is determined whether the
vehicle can avoid collision with the obstacle only
by a driver's braking operation based on at least
the information on the obstacle and the vehicle.
The vehicle enters into an evasive driving mode
in accordance with a driver's steering operation
when it is determined that the vehicle cannot
avoid collision with the obstacle only by the
driver's braking operation. The steering
performance of the vehicle is changed for
controlling behaviour of the vehicle. It is
determined whether the vehicle has been
maneuvered for avoiding collision with the
obstacle. The vehicle is released from the
evasive driving mode when it is determined that
the vehicle has not been maneuvered for avoiding
collision with the obstacle even though the
vehicle has reached the obstacle in the evasive
driving mode.

Abstract: A passive gas spring disposed within a fuel cell assembly adjacent
a fuel cell stack for maintaining the stack under compression at elevated
temperatures. The spring includes at least one membrane formed of a
metal alloy stable at the operating temperatures required of the fuel cell
assembly. The membrane closes a chamber for retaining an amount of
gas. As temperature of the assembly changes, differential thermal
expansion of fuel cell components and supporting structural elements can
cause height mismatches between the stack and the supporting
structure, otherwise resulting in a loss of compression in the assembly.
Because the temperature of the gas also increases, however, the spring
force of the gas spring increases, thereby maintaining compressive load
on the various assembly seals. A mechanical spring may also be
provided.
