In this study, a Hardware-In-The-Loop-Simulation(HILS) system for developing a Electric-Power-Steering(EPS) system is designed. To test a EPS by HILS system, a mathematical vehicle model with a steering system model has been constructed. This mathematical model has been constructed. This mathematical model has been downloaded to the Digital-Signal-Processor(DSP) board. To realize the lateral force acting on the front wheel in a real car. the steering wheel angle sensor and vehicle velocity have been used for input signal. The force sensor has been used for a feedback signal. The full vehicle states could by simulated by the HILS system. Consequently, the HILS system could by used to analyze control-parameters of a EPS that contributes to the maneuverability and stability of a vehicle. At the same time, the HILS system can evaluate the whole performance of the vehicle-steering system. Also the HILS system could do test could not be executed in real vehicle. The HILs system will useful for developing the control logic for the EPS system.

Equipments of passenger cars with modern technologies are gaining their importance. Related with such developments, the four-wheel steering system (4WS) was introduced recently to a few passenger cars in the market. The most important research goal on this new steering system is improvement of active safety, in other words, improvement of handling characteristics of vehicle stability and maneuverability. This paper presents a computer-based study about the effects of 4WS system on the vehicle handling characteristics. A simple bicycle model of 2 d.o.f. is used for the development of four wheel control algorithms of 4WS system, and the rear wheel control strategies are applied to a complex vehicle model of 16 d.o.f. for simulation of selected ISO-driving tests. The 4WS systems, which reduce the sideslip angle at the mass center of vehicle to almost zero, show much improved handling characteristics compared to that of the conventional 2WS system. These 4WS systems, however, result in vehicles with eigen-steer characteristics of extreme understeer behaviour.

이 논문은 횡방향 안정성 및 조향성능 개선을 위한 차량 통합운동제어시스템(IDCB)의 개발에 관한 것이다. IDCB의 개발을 위하여 8자유도의 차량 모델 및 비선형 관측기를 설계하였다. 퍼지 로직 제어 방법 및 슬라이딩 모드 제어 방법을 이용하여 전륜 및 후륜의 제동압력을 독립적으로 제어하여 차량의 요 속도 및 횡방향 미끄러짐 각이 목표값을 추종하도록 하였다. 결과를 살펴보면 비선형 관측기는 만족할 만한 수준의 관측 결과를 보여주었다. 개발된 IDBC는 다양한 노면 조건 및 운전 조건에서 요속도 및 횡방향 미끄러짐 각이 목표값을 잘 추종하도록 하여 차량의 횡방향 안정성 및 조향성을 개선시키는 것을 확인할 수 있다.

This paper presents a basic ECU(Electronic Control Unit) hardware development procedure for the functional safety of in-vehicle network systems. We consider complete hardware redundancy as a safety mechanism for in-vehicle communication network under the assumption of the wired network failure such as disconnection of a CAN bus. An ESC (Electronic Stability Control) system is selected as an item and the required ASIL(Automotive Safety Integrity Level) for this item is assigned by performing the HARA(Hazard Analysis and Risk Assessment). The basic hardware architecture of the ESC system is designed with a microcontroller, passive components, and communication transceivers. The required ASIL for ESC system is shown to be satisfied with the designed safety mechanism by calculation of hardware architecture metrics such as the SPFM(Single Point Fault Metric) and the LFM(Latent Fault Metric).

This paper describes a coordinated control algorithm for rear-side collision avoidance. In order to assist driver actively and increase driver's safety, the proposed coordinated control algorithm is designed to combine lateral control using a steering torque overlay by Motor Driven Power Steering (MDPS) and differential braking by Vehicle Stability Control (VSC). The main objective of a combined control strategy is twofold. The one is to prevent the collision between the subject vehicle and approaching vehicle in the adjacent lanes. The other is to limit actuator's control inputs and vehicle dynamics to safe values for the assurance of the driver's comfort. In order to achieve these goals, the Lyapunov theory and LMI optimization methods has been employed. The proposed coordinated control algorithm for rear-side collision avoidance has been evaluated via simulation using CarSim and MATLAB/Simulink.

A remote control strategy for vehicles in Intelligent Vehicle Highway System (IVHS) is considered. An optimal scheduling of a limited communication channel is proposed for lead vehicle control in a platoon. The optimal scheduling problem is to find the optimal communication sequence that minimizes the cost obtained inherently by an optimal control without the communication constraint. In this paper, the PID control law which guarantees the string stability is used for the lead vehicle control. The fact that the PID control law is equivalent to the approximately linear quadratic tracker allows to obtain the performance measure to find an optimal sequence. Simulations are conducted with five maneuvering platoons to evaluate the optimality of the obtained sequence.

Electric vehicles (EV) are developing fast during this decade due to drastic issues on the protection of environment and the shortage of energy sources, so new technologies allow the development of electric vehicles (EV) by means of electric motors associated with static converters. The proposed propulsion system consists of two induction motors (IM) that ensure the drive of the two back driving wheels. The electronic differential system ensures the robust control of the vehicle behavior on the road. It also allows controlling, independently, every driving wheel to turn at different speeds in any curve. This paper presents the study of an hybrid Fuzzy-sliding mode control (SMC) strategy for the electric vehicle driving wheels, stability improvement, in which the fuzzy logic system replace the discontinuous control action of the classical SMC law. Our electric vehicle fuzzy-sliding mode control's simulated in Matlab SIMULINK environment, the results obtained present the efficiency of the proposed control with no overshoot, the rising time is perfected with good disturbances rejections comparing with the classical control law.

본 논문에서는 차량의 횡방향 안정성을 향상시키기 위해 자세 제어 장치(ESC)와 능동 전륜 조향(AFS)을 이용하는 통합 새시 제어의 적응 가변 가중치 조절 방법을 제안한다. 제어기 설계 방법론을 적용하여 차량을 안정화시키는데 필요한 제어 요 모멘트를 구한 후 이를 가중 역행렬 기반 제어 할당 방법(WPCA)을 이용하여 ESC 의 제동력과 AFS 의 추가 조향각으로 분배한다. 저마찰 노면에서는 차량의 속도가 높다면 횡슬립각이 증가하여 횡방향 안정성이 저하되므로 이를 방지하기 위해 WPCA 의 가변가중치를 상황에 따라 조절하는 방법을 제안한다. 차량 시뮬레이션 패키지인 CarSim 에서 시뮬레이션을 수행하여 제안된 방법이 통합 섀시 제어기의 횡방향 안정성을 향상시킨다는 사실을 검증한다.

This paper presents modeling and ostimator/controller design for the hydraulic system in Vehicle Stability Control(VSC) system. A nonlinear mathematical model of the VSC hydraulic system is proposed and its accuracy is experimentally verified. A brake pressure estimator is then designed based on the derived mathematical model of VSC hydraulic system. And a disturbance observer, which compensates the estimation error between the brake pressure and the computed brake pressure is also designed to enhance the accuracy of the estimator. The proposed controller has the form of a feedback controller and determines explicitly the on/off ratio of valves' driving PWM signals by means of making use of the simplified mathematical model in the VSC hydraulic system. The performance of the designed controller whose feedback signal is generated by the brake pressure estimator is validated through experimental results.
