direct yaw moment control systems (dyc) can maintain the vehicle in the driver’s desired path by distributing the asymmetric longitudinal forces and the generation of the control yaw moment (cym). in order to achieve the superior control performance, intelligent usage of lateral forces is also required. the lateral wheel forces have an indirect effect on the cym and based upon their directions,...

Direct yaw moment control is an effective means to enhance vehicle stability and handling. The majority of the latest direct yaw moment control works employ sliding mode control to generate the target yaw moment. This paper proposes a new sliding mode-based direct yaw moment control method for simultaneous tracking of desired yaw rate and vehicle side-slip for electric and hybrid vehicles equip...

Yaw angle control is an essential function in every autonomous vehicle system. In this paper, a novel yaw angle control method for vehicle is proposed. Because the attitude of vehicle obtained from on-board GPS receiver is not only delayed but also at low rate in comparison with the control frequency of EPS servo drives, it is impossible to use GPS directly in yaw angle control loop. By integra...

Electric vehicles with independently controlled drivetrains allow torque vectoring, which enhances active safety and handling qualities. This article proposes an approach for the concurrent control of yaw rate sideslip angle based on a single-input single-output (SISO) controller. With SISO formulation, reference is first defined according to vehicle requirements then corrected actual angle. Th...

AbshocT-The accurate measurement of vehicle yaw rate is vital for vehicle dynamics control, such as yaw control and traction control. Generally vehicle yaw rate is measured by gyro that will cost too much to he wed commercially as an on-vehicle sensor. Based on soft sensor technique in inferential control theory, a novel method for the estimation of vehicle yaw rate is proposed, The estimation ...

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...

This work evaluates the intrinsic contribution of the yaw rate reference to the overall handling performance of an electric vehicle with torque vectoring control in terms of minimum-time manoeuvring. A range of yaw rate references are compared through optimal control simulations incorporating closed-loop controller dynamics. Results show yaw rate reference has a significant effect on manoeuvre ...

In this paper, the composite nonlinear feedback (CNF) technique is applied for yaw tracking control of active front steering system with the objectives to improve the transient performance of yaw rate response. For lateral and yaw dynamics analysis, nonlinear and linear vehicle models are utilized as actual vehicle plant and for controller design respectively. The designed controller is evaluat...

This paper presents a novel lateral stability control system for electric vehicle based on sideslip angle estimation through Kalman filter using the integration of a single antenna GPS receiver and yaw rate sensor. Using multi-rate measurements including yaw rate and course angle, time-varying parameters disappear from the measurement equation of the proposed Kalman filter. Accurate sideslip an...
