Abstract: Many vehicle control systems are based on the yaw rate error to help the driver during oversteer and understeer conditions. The control systems usually operate on brake pressures distributions such as ESP and/or on active front and rear steering control. Recently many papers are focused on the design of integrated global chassis control systems. The main contribution of this paper is ...

The problem of generating a 3D simulation of a car accident from a written description can be divided into two subtasks: the linguistic analysis and the virtual scene generation. As a means of communication between these two system parts, we designed a template formalism to represent a written accident report. The CarSim system processes formal descriptions of accidents and creates correspondin...

Automotive collision avoidance system, which aims to enhance the active safety of the vehicle, has become a hot research topic in recent years. However, most of the current systems ignore the active protection of pedestrian and other vulnerable groups in the transportation system. An advanced emergency braking control system is studied by taking into account the pedestrians and the vehicles. Th...

Carsim is a program that automatically converts narratives into 3D scenes. Carsim considers authentic texts describing road accidents, generally collected from web sites of Swedish newspapers or transcribed from hand-written accounts by victims of accidents. One of the program’s key features is that it animates the generated scene to visualize events. To create a consistent animation, Carsim ex...

The thesis describes methods for automatic creation of illustrations of natural-language text. The main focus of the work is to convert texts that describe sequences of events in a physical world into animated images. This is what we call text-to-scene conversion. The first part of the thesis describes Carsim, a system that automatically illustrates traffic accident newspaper reports written in...

Steering system is an important man-machine interface, for which transmits driver's lateral control intention to the vehicle. In order to improve the vehicle lateral stability, a double closed-loop control scheme of yaw rate for active front steering system was proposed in this paper. To investigate the control effects of the double closed-loop control scheme of yaw rate, a two degree-of-freedo...

Abstract Vehicle braking stability performance can improve the safety of vehicle driving during a braking. However, some parameters structure impact on stability, characteristic law relevant is ignored. A simulation model established using software CarSim. The included in system, suspension, steering mechanism, system. wheelbase, and height centre mass analysed. concluded. Based law, ideal obta...

This paper proposes a robust gain-scheduled H1 controller for lateral stability control of four-wheelindependent-drive electric vehicles via linear parameter-varying technique. The controller aims at tracking the desired yaw rate and vehicle sideslip angle by controlling the external yaw moment. In the design of controller, uncertain factors such as vehicle mass and tire cornering stiffness in ...
