Study on Fuzzy Control for Vehicle Dynamic Stability

Abstract:

To ensure vehicle stability in critical and dangerous working conditions, a vehicle stability control strategy is proposed, which is to generate compensating yaw moment by using the combined action of active rear-wheel steering and differential braking. A corresponding fuzzy controller for the proposed control strategy is designed. To verify the control effect of fuzzy controller, the numerical simulation by using vehicle dynamic model is performed in critical condition. The simulation results show that the designed fuzzy control system can efficiently prevent the vehicle to lose driving stability during critical turning.
