Vehicle stability in 4 wheel drive(4WD) vehicles has been pursued by torque split based technology and brake based technology. The brake based methods are essentially brake maneuver strategies using the active control of the individual wheel brake. By comparison, the torque split based technologies realize stability by varying the traction torque split through powertrain to create an offset yaw moment. In the 4WD hybrid electric vehicle adopting separate front and rear motor, the vehicle stability enhancement algorithm using the rear motor control has some advantages such as faster response, braking energy recuperation, etc. However, since the left and right wheels are controlled by the same driving and regenerative torque from one motor, stability enhancement only by the front and rear motor control has a limitation in satisfying the required offset yaw moment. Therefore, to obtain the demanded offset yaw moment, a brake force distribution at each wheel is required. In this paper, a vehicle stability control logic using the front and rear motor and electrohydraulic brake(EHB) is proposed for a 4WD hybrid electric vehicle. A fuzzy control algorithm is suggested to compensate the error of the sideslip angle and the yaw rate by generating the direct yaw moment. Performance of the vehicle stability control algorithm is evaluated using ADAMS and MATLAB Simulink co-simulation.

Vehicle Stability Control

A new control algorithm and the adaptation laws required for estimation of unknown vehicle parameters have been developed for vehicle stability control (VSC). This algorithm is based on the Lyapunov Direct Method. A vehicle model with two degrees of freedom (DOF) was used to develop the control algorithm. In developing the equations of motion for this simple model, a new approach for introducing the needed stabilizing forces and moments was developed. In addition, an eight DOF model was developed for control algorithm evaluation. The model includes lateral, longitudinal, yaw, and roll motions of the body plus the rotational DOFs for all of the four wheels. Also included in the model is a transient tire model taking into account the tire lateral relaxation length. Using the validated 8 DOF simulation model, the new control algorithm was evaluated and the results show the advantages of using such an approach for enhancing vehicle stability during emergency steering maneuvers.

The introduction of X-By-Wire technology opens new possibilities for vehicle stability control. This technology replaces the mechanical links currently existing between the driver and different actuators with electrical connections so that the driver can be decoupled from the control system. In this paper, we consider a X-By-Wire vehicle powered by four independent wheel motors and front wheel steer-by-wire. For such a vehicle, a control algorithm is developed that employs steering and individual wheel acceleration in addition to braking to enhance stability and improve performance. Such a vehicle offers advantages in case of actuator failure where the remaining actuators can act to ensure stability and we illustrate this in simulation using our control algorithm. Finally, we describe our experimental setup and present preliminary experimental results.

Abstract The dynamics of a vehicle's tires is a major contributor to the vehicle stability, control, and performance. A better understanding of the handling performance and lateral stability of the vehicle can be achieved by an in-depth study of the transient behavior of the tire. In this article, the transient response of the tire to a steering angle input is examined and an analytical second order tire model is proposed. This model provides a means for a better understanding of the transient behavior of the tire. The proposed model is also applied to a vehicle model and its performance is compared with a first order tire model.

Set Up

This paper presents a predictive vehicle stability control (VSC) strategy that distributes the drive/braking torques to each wheel of the vehicle based on the optimal exploitation of the available traction capability for each tire. To this end, tire saturation levels are defined as the deficiency of a tire to generate a force that linearly increases with the relevant slip quantities. These saturation levels are then used to set up an optimization objective for a torque distribution problem within a novel cascade control structure that exploits the natural time scale separation of the slower lateral handling dynamics of the vehicle from the relatively faster rotational dynamics of the wheel/tire. The envisaged application of the proposed vehicle stability strategy is for vehicles with advanced and emerging pure electric, hybrid electric or hydraulic hybrid power trains featuring independent wheel drives. The developed predictive control strategy is evaluated for, a two-axle truck featuring such an independent drive system and subjected to a transient handling maneuver.
