Aiming at the steering special requirement of in-wheel motor drive wheeled vehicle, the dual-steering control is adopted. The target of control system is the vehicle yaw rate, and active disturbance rejection controller is designed. Yaw moment torque is produced by adjusting the both sides of motor torque output to achieve the target of reference yaw rate. The vehicle kinetics model is built in the Adams, and the co-simulation model is designed base on the Adams and Matlab. The results of simulation demonstrate that the dual-steering control increased the vehicle outboard power output and decreased the steering radius, and improve the steering agility of the vehicle.

Basically, there are two main techniques to control the vehicle yaw moment. First method is the indirect yaw moment control, which works on the basis of active steering control (ASC). The second one being the direct yaw moment control (DYC), which is based on either the differential braking or the torque vectoring. An innovative idea for the direct yaw moment control is introduced by using an active controller system to supervise the lateral dynamics of vehicle and perform as an active yaw moment control system, denoted as the stabilizer pendulum system (SPS). This idea has further been developed, analyzed, and implemented in a standalone direct yaw moment control system, as well as, in an integrated vehicle dynamic control system with a differential braking yaw moment controller. The effectiveness of SPS has been evaluated by model simulation, which illustrates its superior performance especially on low friction roads.

For optimal control of synchronous machine, chattering phenomenon will appear if traditional slider control is adopted because permanent magnet synchronous machine is a complex nonlinear time-dependent system with strong coupling of current and rotational speed to cause the deterioration of system control performance with load or load disturbance. In this article, based on the mathematical model of permanent magnet synchronous machine, a control system for it, which combines sliding mode control and active disturbance rejection control, is proposed to improve the dynamic performance and robustness of control system. In the control system, sliding mode control is adopted to control the inner current of machine and active disturbance rejection control is adopted to control the outer speed. The load disturbance of system is also estimated and offset. The results of matlab simulation show that the control system can eliminate serious chattering phenomenon existing in sliding mode control, improves the robustness of system for load and system parameter disturbance as well as has great dynamic and static performance.

In this article, a new automated steering control method is presented for vehicle lane keeping. This method is a combination between the linear active disturbance rejection control and the quantitative feedback theory. The structure of the steering controller is first determined based on the linear active disturbance rejection control, then the controller is tuned in the framework of the quantitative feedback theory to meet the prescribed design specifications on sensitivity and closed-loop stability. The parameter uncertainties of the vehicle system are considered at the tuning stage. The proposed steering controller is simulated and tested on a scale vehicle. Both the simulation and experimental results demonstrate that the scale vehicle controlled by the proposed controller is able to perform the lane keeping. In the experiments, the lateral offset between the scale vehicle and the road centerline is regulated within the acceptable ranges of ±0.03 m during straight lane keeping and ±0.15 m during curved lane keeping. The proposed controller is easy to be implemented and is simple without requiring complex calculations and measurements of vehicle states. Simulations also show that the control method can be implemented on a full-scale vehicle.

The paper presents a vehicle dynamics control strategy devoted to prevent vehicles from spinning and drifting out. With vehicle dynamics control system, counter braking are applied at individual wheels as needed to generate an additional yaw moment until steering control and vehicle stability were regained. The Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR) theory was designed to produce demanded yaw moment according to the error between the measured yaw rate and desired yaw rate. The results indicate the proposed system can significantly improve vehicle stability for active safety.
