Integrated chassis control with AFS, ARS and ESC under lateral force constraint on AFS

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

This paper presents an integrated chassis control with active front steering (AFS), active rear steering (ARS) and electronic stability control (ESC) under lateral force constraint on front wheels. The control yaw moment is calculated using sliding mode control. A weighted pseudo-inverse-based control allocation (WPCA) is used for yaw moment distribution. On low friction road, AFS has little effect on control performance since the lateral tire forces of front wheels are easily saturated.
To overcome the problem, the lateral force generated by AFS is limited to its maximum, and the braking force of ESC and the angle of ARS, obtained from WPCA, are applied. To check the effectiveness of the proposed method, simulation was performed on the vehicle simulation package, CarSim. From simulation, it was verified that the proposed method can enhance the maneuverability and lateral stability, if the lateral forces on front wheels are saturated.
