Active Axletree Suspension for Road Vehicles with Gain-Switching

Authors:

Alessandro Giua, Carla Seatzu, Giampaolo Usai,

Volume: 1, Page 438 Paper number 2181

Abstract:

In this paper we realize the design of an active--passive suspension system for the axletree of a road vehicle based on a linear model with four degrees of freedom. The optimal control law we propose aims to optimize the suspension performance while ensuring that the magnitude of the forces generated by the two actuators and the total forces applied between wheel and body never exceed given bounds. We derive a solution that takes the form of an adaptive control law that switches between different constant state feedback gains. The results of our simulations show that the bound on the active forces is a design parameter useful for establishing a trade-off between performance and power requirement.

Nonlinear Control Applied to Gearshifting in Automated Manual Transmissions

Authors:

Jonas Fredriksson, Bo S. Egardt,

Volume: 1, Page 444 Paper number 1866

Abstract:

In this paper the problem of automating the gearshift process of a manual transmission without synchronizers is investigated. The application is very interesting from an integrated powertrain control point of view, since it includes many different control tasks and encourages the use of the engine as an actuator to the rest of the powertrain. A model-based control law for the task of gearshifting is presented. The controller is designed based on the backstepping methodology. It includes control laws for transmission torque control as well as for engine speed control. Simulations have shown good results for the gearshift controller.

Longitudinal Control Algorithm for Automated Vehicle Merging

Authors:

Xiao-Yun Lu, Karl J. Hedrick,

Volume: 1, Page 450 Paper number 1941

Abstract:

This paper considers the theoretical part for longitudinal control of merging maneuver for Automated Highway System. The longitudinal control problem for merging is proposed for different road layouts. Then a unified mathematical model is established and a new concept virtual platooning is proposed, which effectively avoids a two point boundary value problem. Based on it, a rather general adaptive algorithm is provided and proved. This algorithm has been implemented and tested with automated cars.

Adaptive Emergency Braking Control Using A Dynamic Tire/Road Friction Model

Authors:

Jingang Yi, Luis Alvarez, Roberto Horowitz, Carlos Canudas de Wit,

Volume: 1, Page 456 Paper number 2026

Abstract:

A controller for emergency braking of vehicles in Automated Highway Systems (AHS) is designed. The scheme is based on the estimation of both the LuGre tire/road friction dynamic model and the braking system gain. The controller estimates the tire/road relative velocity which achieves maximum braking force based on a quasi-static solution of the LuGre friction model and sets the master cylinder pressure to track that relative velocity. This control system is designed to work in conjunction with antilock-braking-systems (ABS) providing two advantages: less chattering during braking and a source of a priori information regarding safe spacing.

Control of Vehicle Speed : a Nonlinear Approach

Authors:

Rachid Outbib, Ahmed Rachid,

Volume: 1, Page 462 Paper number 1092

Abstract:

In this paper we present a new nonlinear approach to control the speed of a vehicle. We first propose a nonlinear transformation of a vehicle dynamics model, which takes into account the main non linearities of the process, to facilitate the control of the vehicle dynamics. Afterwards, we establish that the nonlinear model can be made asymptotically stable around a desired longitudinal speed.

Block Control of Linear Time Invariant Systems with Delay

Authors:

Alexander G. Loukianov, Jaime Escoto Hernández,

Volume: 1, Page 464 Paper number 1671

Abstract:

This paper applies the block control method to form a decomposed control law suitable for multivariable linear time-delay systems. A Block Controllable Form is introduced, and a non-singular transformation that reduces the system to this form, is proposed. Conditions of stability of the closed-loop system are derived.
