Abstract:

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 software are coded and then a control law is introduced by minimizing the local differences between the predicted and the desired responses. The influence of some parameters such as the anti roll bar, change the parameters of the suspension system and track wide in articulated heavy vehicles stability has been studied. The simulation results show that the vehicle stability can be remarkably improved when the optimal linear controller is applied

Roll Dynamic Response of an Articulated Vehicle carrying liquids

The directional response and roll stability characteristics of a partly filled tractor semi-trailer vehicle, with cylindrical tank, are investigated in various maneuvers. The dynamic interaction of liquid cargo with the tractor semi-trailer vehicle is also evaluated by integrating a dynamic slosh model of the partly filled tank with five-degrees-of-freedom of a tractor semi-trailer tank mode...

Analysis of Roll Control System to Eliminate Liquid Sloshing Effect on Lateral Stability of an Articulated Vehicle Carrying Liquid

In this paper, the consequences of filled volume on the transient lateral dynamic and stabilities boundaries displacement of an articulated vehicle carrying liquid is investigated. First, a sixteen-degrees-of-freedom nonlinear dynamic model of an articulated vehicle is developed then, using TruckSim software the model is validated. Next, the dynamic interaction of the fluid cargo with the vehic...

Linear-Quadratic Optimal Controller 10.3 Optimal Linear Control Systems

In Chapters 8 and 9 of this book we have designed dynamic controllers such that the closed-loop systems display the desired transient response and steady state characteristics. The design techniques presented in those chapters have sometimes been limited to trial and error methods while searching for controllers that meet the best given specifications. Furthermore, we have seen that in some cas...
