In the turning maneuver of the vehicle, its motion is mainly dependent on the genuine steering characteristics in view of the directional stability for stable turning ability. The under steer vehicle has an ability to maintain its own directonal performance for unknown external disturbances to some extent. From a few years ago, in order to acquire the more enhanced handling performance, some types of four wheel steering vehicle were considered and constructed. And, various rear wheel control logics for external disturbances has not been suggested. For this reason, in this posed rear wheel control logic is based on the yaw rate feed back type and is slightly modified by an yaw rate tuning factor for more stable turning performance. And an external disturbance is defined as a motivation of the additional yaw rate in the center of gravity by an uncertain input. In this study, an external disturbance is applied to the vehicle as a form of the additional yawing moment. Finally, the proposed rear wheel control logic is tested on the multi-body analysis software(ADAMS). J-turn and double lane change test are performed for the validation of the control logic.

본 연구는 자동 조향 트랙터용 비례제어밸브의 국산화를 위한 기초연구로써 다양한 트랙터 조향 조건에 따른 조향 비례제어밸브 동특성 계측 및 분석을 위해 수행되었다. 동특성 데이터는 유량 및 압력 계측 시스템을 통해 수집되었으며, 수집된 유량 및 압력 데이터를 이용하여 동력을 분석하였다. 실험 조건은 트랙터 엔진 회전속도와 조향각을 주요 변수로 선정하였으며, 실험은 우레탄 노면 조건에서 수행되었다. 그 결과, 트랙터 엔진 회전속도 및 조향각이 증가함에 따라 비례제어밸브 유량, 압력, 동력이 모두 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 특히, 동일한 엔진회전속도에서 조향각이 증가함에 따라, 유량, 압력, 동력은 각각 최대 190%, 172%, 273% 증가하는 경향을 보였으며, 동일한 조향각에서 엔진회전속도가 증가함에 따라, 유량, 압력, 동력은 각각 최대 161%, 122%, 168% 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 이를 통해, 조향각이 엔진 회전속도보다 비례제어밸브의 동특성에 더 높은 영향을 미치는 것을 확인하였다.

A valve-less electro-hydraulic servo steering device (short: VSSD) for ships was chosen as a study object, and its mathematic model of hydraulic shock was established on the basis of flow properties and force balance of each component. The influence of system structure parameters, changing rate of motor speed and external load on hydraulic shock strength was simulated by the method of numerical simulation. Experiment was designed to test the hydraulic shock mathematic model of VSSD. Experiment results verified the correctness of the model, and the model provided a correct theoretical method for the calculation and control of hydraulic shock of valve-less electro-hydraulic servo steering device.

In order to improve stability and controllability of SUV vehicle, Integrated Dynamics Control system with Steering system (IDCS) was developed. Eight degree of freedom vehicle model and front and rear steering system model were used to design IDCS system. It also employs Fuzzy logic control method to design integrate control system. The performance of IDCS was evaluated with two road conditions and several driving conditions. The result shows that SUV vehicle with IDCS tracked the reference yaw rate under all tested conditions. IDCS reduced the body slip angle also. It represents IDCS improves vehicle stability and steerability.

Hydraulic power steering system has been adopted in seniority passenger and commercial vehicle system for an easy maneuverability and a smoother ride. In this study, hydraulic power steering system analysis model which includes hydraulics and mechanical sub-systems was developed using commercial software, AMESim in order to predict characteristics for various steering components. Each component which constructs system was modeled and verified by experimentally obtained characteristics curves of each components. The agreement between simulation and experimental results shows the validity of the simulation model. The parameter sensitivity analysis such as valve opening area, torsional stiffness for system design are carried out by the analysis and experimental method.

Accurate state estimation is important for autonomous driving. However, the estimation error increases in situations that a lot of longitudinal slip occurs. Therefore, this paper presents a vehicle state estimation method using an Extended Kalman Filter. The filter estimates the states of the host vehicle robust to wheel slip. It utilizes the measurements of the four-wheel rotational speeds, longitudinal acceleration, yaw-rate, and steering wheel angle. Nonlinear measurement model is represented by Ackermann Model. The main advantage of this approach is the accurate estimation of yaw rate due to the measurement of the steering wheel angle. The proposed algorithm is verified in scenarios of autonomous emergency braking (AEB), lane change (LC), lane keeping (LK) using an automated vehicle. The results show that the proposed algorithm guarantees accurate estimation in such scenarios.

Electro-Hydraulic Power Steering(EHPS) 시스템은 오일펌프에 직결된 전기모터를 통해 조향 조작력을 발생시키는 시스템이다. 이러한 스티어링 시스템 부품의 원가 및 성능을 최적화시키는 것은 매우 중요하다. 현재까지 EHPS 시스템과 같은 유압시스템의 개발은 실차 실험을 통해 문제점을 보완하여 개발하고 있기 때문에 많은 시간과 비용이 발생한다. 본 논문에서는 EHPS용 개발한 외접형 기어펌프의 토출유량측정실험을 수행하고 실험 데이터를 통하여 토출유량을 계산할 수 있는 유량 근사식을 제안하였다. 제안한 유량 근사식의 검증을 위해 실험데이터 및 AMESim 유량값과 비교하였고, 그 결과 각각의 유량특성간 오차율 5%내외로 유사성을 입증하였다.

This paper presents yaw moment control for modification of steering characteristic in rear-driven vehicle with front in-wheel motors (IWMs). The proposed control algorithm is designed to modify yaw rate response of the test vehicle. General approach for modification of steering characteristic is to define the desired yaw rate and track the yaw rate. This yaw rate tracking method can cause the chattering problem because of the IWM actuator response. Large overshoot and settling time in IWM torque response can amplify the oscillation in control input and yaw rate. To resolve these problems, open-loop IWM controller for cornering agility was designed to modify the understeer gradient of the vehicle. The proposed algorithm has been investigated via the computer simulations and the vehicle tests. The performance evaluation has been conducted on dry asphalt using E-segment test vehicle. The performance of the proposed algorithm has been compared to general yaw rate tracking algorithm in the vehicle tests. It has been shown that the proposed control law improved the cornering agility without chattering problem.

Most power steering systems work by using a hydraulic system to turn the vehicle's wheels. The pressure is usually provided by a hydraulic pump driven by the vehicle's engine. A double-acting hydraulic cylinder applies a force to the steering gear, which in turn applies a torque to the steering axis of the road wheels. The flow to the cylinder is controlled by valves operated by the steering wheel ; the more torque the driver applies to the steering wheel and the shaft it is attached to, the more fluid the valves allow through to the cylinder, and so the more force is applied to steer the wheels in the appropriate direction. Since the pumps employed are of the positive displacement type, the flow rate they deliver is directly proportional to the speed of the engine. And for a long time, the type of hydraulic pump pulley was boss welding type. But recently, monolith type driving pulley is widely used. Therefore in this paper we studied the safety of monolith type driving pulley to the extracting force and endurance by FEM analysis and experiments.

In the vehicle steering system, we can consider two methods to steer the vehicle. One is a front wheel steering(FWS), the other is a four wheel steering(4WS). The four wheel steering method has been recently introduced to improve the steering performance. In this paper, we present a design of the four wheel steering controller. First, we constructed the neural network two degree of freedom PID controller to control the 4WS system. Then we compared the performance of conventional PID controller with our proposed controller in terms of yaw rate and side slip velocity. The computer simulation results show that 4WS system controlled by the proposed controller has well driving performances than the other.
