  1. 11. Steering Control During μ-split Braking for an Autonomous Heavy Road Vehicle

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Fordonssystem

    Author : Sebastian Haglund; Henrik Johansson; [2020]
    Keywords : steering; braking; autonomous; μ-split; split-μ; truck; vehicle; control;

    Abstract : A critical maneuver for a heavy vehicle is braking with different friction on the left and right hand side of the vehicle, called μ-split. This results in an unwanted yaw torque acting on the vehicle. During this situation, the driver maintains the lateral stability and follows the desired path by corrective steering. READ MORE

  3. 12. Trajectory Planning for Off-road Autonomous Driving

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Ji Yin; [2018]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The thesis develops a trajectory planner which operates in a formula racing scenario. The proposed trajectory planner gives time-optimal off-road trajectory planning solutions and generates sequences of control signals for the vehicle to follow the trajectory. READ MORE

  4. 13. Road unevenness relation to road safety - a vehicle dynamics study

    University essay from KTH/Fordonsdynamik

    Author : Fredrik De la Gardie; [2018]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The purpose of this Master thesis in Vehicle Engineering, is to study the road unevenness relation to road safety. The long term objective is to be able to prioritize which road section that is in the need of repair and maintenance prior to other road sections. READ MORE

  5. 14. Investigation of Steering Feedback Control Strategies for Steer-by-Wire Concept

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Reglerteknik

    Author : Henrik Lillberg; Martin Johannesson; [2018]
    Keywords : Steering Feedback; Force Feedback; Steer-by-Wire; SbW; Control Strategies; Feedback Control;

    Abstract : The automotive industry is currently undergoing a paradigm shift. One such example in the next generation steering is the Steer-by-Wire (SbW) technology. SbW comes with a lot of advantages but one of the big challenges is to provide the driver with a realistic steering feel. READ MORE

  6. 15. Design and Implementation of a Strategy for Path Tracking on Autonomous Heavy-Duty Vehicles

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Fordonssystem

    Author : Oscar Törnroth; Truls Nyberg; [2018]
    Keywords : Control Engineering; Control Architecture; Autonomous Vehicles; Heavy-Duty Vehicles; Motion Control; Path Tracking; Curvature Tracking; Lateral Control; Steering Systems; Feedforward Control Systems; System Identification; Understeering;

    Abstract : In this thesis, a combined feedforward and feedback controller for improved path tracking on autonomous heavy-duty vehicles is designed and implemented. The steering wheel is controlled in order to follow a reference curvature, computed by a higher-level MPC, responsible for minimizing the distance to a planned path. READ MORE
