An Advanced Yaw Stability Control System

A review study on integrated active steering and braking control for vehicle yaw stability system is conducted and its finding is discussed in this paper. For road-vehicle dynamic, lateral dynamic control is important in order to determine the vehicle stability. The aw stability control system is the prominent approach for vehicle lateral dynamics where the actual yaw rate and sideslip should be tracked by the controller close to the desired response. To improve the performance of yaw stability control during steady state and critical driving conditions, a current approach using active control of integrated steering and braking could be implemented. This review study discusses the vehicle models, control objectives, control problems and propose control strategies for vehicle yaw stability control system. In the view of control system engineering, the transient performances of tracking control are essential. Based on the review, this paper discusses a basic concept of control strategy based on the composite nonlinear feedback (CNF) and sliding mode control (SMC) whichcan be proposed for integrated active steering and braking control in order to improve the transient performances of the yaw rate and sideslip tracking control in the presence of uncertainties and disturbances.

Stability Control System

Yaw stability control system plays a significant role in vehicle lateral dynamics in order to improve the vehicle handling and stability performances. However, not many researches have been focused on the transient performances improvement of vehicle yaw rate and sideslip tracking control. This paper reviews the vital elements for control system design of an active yaw stability control system; the vehicle dynamic models, control objectives, active chassis control, and control strategies with the focus on identifying suitable criteria for improved transient performances. Each element is discussed and compared in terms of their underlying theory, strengths, weaknesses, and applicability. Based on this, we conclude that the sliding mode control with nonlinear sliding surface based on composite nonlinear feedback is a potential control strategy for improving the transient performances of yaw rate and sideslip tracking control.

Control Accuracy

In extreme weather condition, the electric vehicle yaw stability control accuracy is low. A new yaw stability control system for electric vehicle driven by hub motor is designed to simplify the hardware system design and improve the system response speed. The driving control module is used to analyse the driving state parameters of the vehicle and calculate the four-wheel moment to control the yaw stability of the vehicle, which is transmitted to the battery control module. The UDU in the control module adjusts the motor speed and power output in real time according to the vehicle power demand after analyzing the vehicle driving state data. In the software part of the system, the vehicle dynamic model is built and yaw stability control strategy is used to complete the vehicle yaw stability control. The experimental results show three important parameters of the designed system for evaluating the manoeuvrability tend to ideal values under the control of the system, in which yaw angular velocity is controlled from 0.277 rads to 0.286 rads and the difference between them is 0.002 and 0.011. The yaw stability control accuracy is also high.
