An adaptive cruise control (ACC) system can reduce driver workload and improve safety by taking over the longitudinal of vehicles. Nowadays, with development range sensors V2X technology, ACC has been applied to curved conditions. Therefore, in curving car-following process, it is necessary simultaneously consider performance, ride comfort, fuel economy lateral stability vehicle. The direct yaw...

This paper investigates the problems of the z-axis dynamic balance and high energy consumption in practical application of humanoid robot. Considering z-axis dynamic balance conditions, a novel yaw moment compensation solution based on arms-swinging is proposed by computing the optimal arms-swinging trajectories to counteract the yaw moment caused by the movement of humanoid robot. Given the op...

Non-linear characteristic of tire forces is the main cause of vehicle lateral dynamics instability, while direct yaw moment control is an effective method to recover the vehicle stability. In this paper, an optimal linear quadratic regulator (LQR) controller for roll-yaw dynamics to articulated heavy vehicles is developed. For this purpose, the equations of motion obtained by the MATLAB sof...

This paper presented a new method for four wheel in-wheel-motored electric vehicle to improve handling and stability with the help of sideslip angle observer and braking force distribution. The first part of this study deals with the full description of the basic theory of vehicle dynamic control system. After that four wheels in-wheel-motored electric vehicle dynamics model, as well as desired...

Six-wheel drive (6WD) articulated dump truck has excellent passing ability and high productivity, but its stability should be improved. A dynamic model of 6WD articulated vehicle with 3 degree-of-freedom (DOF) is established. With the control variables of yaw velocity and side-slip angle at mass center of front body, a feedfoward-feedback control system is designed by linear quadratic regulator...

A Steer-By-Wire (SBW) control scheme is proposed for enhancing the lateral stability and handling capability of a super lightweight vehicle by using the energy optimal control method. Tire dissipation power and virtual power, which is the product of yaw moment and the deviation of actual yaw rate from the target yaw rate, were selected as performance measures to be minimized. The SBW control sc...

A bstmct— This paper proposes a new Hm yawmoment control scheme using brake torque for improving vehicle performance and stability especially in high speed driving. Its characteristics is that only one brake is used for control depending on the vehicle state. Steering angles are modeled as a disturbance input to the system and the controller minimizes the difference between the performance of t...

Many vehicle control systems were designed and implemented in the last years to enhance performances and stability acting on front and/or rear steering actuators [1,2,3] and/or individual wheel braking [8]; the development of electroactuated differentials allows to transfer torque between wheels from the faster to the slower one in semiactive differentials [11,12,13,14] and in both directions i...
