Tractor-Semitrailer Stability Integrated Control Based on TruckSim-Simulink Co-Simulation

Article Preview

Abstract:

A nonlinear tractor-semitrailer simulation model is established based on TruckSim. The control system which is designed in Matlab-Simulink contains roll, yaw folding and ABS integrated control strategy. A TruckSim-Simulink co-simulation model is constructed, and is based on which, tractor-semitrailer stability integrated control is simulation tested by a fishhook condition. The results reveal that the control system is effective. The proposed control scheme can significantly reduce the accidents of roll, jackknifing and yaw loss of control of a tractor semi-trailer, improving the vehicle driving stability.
