Abstract:

Addresses the issue of vehicle stability control, a design method for the lateral motion control system of automobiles based on the UniTire model was proposed. Firstly, on the premise of retaining the UniTire model to describe the dynamic characteristics of the tire in a unified exponential expression, combined with the requirements of vehicle stability control, a targeted simplified modeling method is proposed. Secondly, in combination with the model predictive control theory, a vehicle lateral prediction model was established, and a vehicle yaw moment controller was designed. Finally, the effectiveness of the control system was verified and analyzed by using the joint simulation platform of Carsim and Matlab.

Key words: control theory and control engineering, UniTire model, yaw moment controller, model predictive control, vehicle stability
