چکیده

Off road ground vehicles have many potential applications, including space, defence, agriculture, mining and construction. Increased autonomy of ground vehicles will not only improve the safety of the operators but also assist in trajectory tracking. Accurate estimation of slip is essential in developing autonomous navigation strategies for mobile off road vehicles operating in unstructured terrain. In this paper, a driver assistance and vehicle control capability to increase safety and efficiency by means of non-linear slip estimation is presented. A sliding mode observer and an Extended Kalman Filter are constructed to estimate slip parameters based on the kinematics model of a tracked vehicle and trajectory measurement. Autonomous driver support system for the rural road environment (off road) using estimated slip parameters is investigated. Copyright © 2005 IFAC

Tire-Road Friction Estimation Using Slip-based Observers

In order to improve the security of the vehicles, the car industry focuses more and more on Active Safety. The objective is to introduce embedded electronic control systems to detect dangerous conditions, warn the driver and, in emergency situations, even take actions to avoid crash or at least reduce the violence of the impact. The tire-road friction coefficient which defines the maximum tract...

Real-time identification of vehicle dynamics for mobile machines with electrified drive trains

Modern concepts of electrified drive trains for off-road vehicles allow for some new possibilities for control strategies. When considering traction efficiency, the most controllable factor is wheel-slippage. Many existing slip control systems use a certain threshold value of slip as reference, for example for farm tractors, electrohydraulic hitch control system (EHC) controls the implement, wh...

Vibration of Road Vehicles with Non linear Suspensions

In order to investigate the effects of non-linear springs in vibrating behavior of vehicles, the independent suspension of conventional vehicles could be modeled as a non-linear single degree of freedom system. The equation of motion for the system would be a non-linear third order ordinary differential equation, when considering the elasticity of rubber bushings in joints of shock absorber. It...

New Optimal Observer Design Based on State Prediction for a Class of Non-linear Systems Through Approximation

This paper deals with the optimal state observer of non-linear systems based on a new strategy. Despite the development of state prediction in linear systems, state prediction for non-linear systems is still challenging. In this paper, to obtain a future estimation of the system states, initially Taylor series expansion of states in their receding horizons was achieved to any specified order an...

Road Departure Avoidance System Based on the Driver Decision Estimator

In this paper a robust road departure avoidance system based on a closed-loop driver decision estimator (DDE) is presented. The main idea is that of incorporating the driver intent in the control of the vehicle. The driver decision estimator computes the vehicle look ahead lateral position based on the driver input and uses this position to establish the risk of road departure. To induce a risk...
