Additional information

This paper represents an important continuation of a long-established theme within our automotive control research team. This theme, namely integration of vehicle control systems, featured strongly in our RAE2008 submission. Integration of vehicle dynamics control systems are investigated by proposing a new control architecture involving braking, steering, suspension and driveline functions. Active control systems include brake-based electronic stability control (ESC), active front steering (AFS), normal suspension force control (NFC) and variable torque distribution (VTD). Results show that the integration strategy enhances vehicle handling stability through a reduction in vehicle yaw rate and side-slip angle, not attainable in standalone mode.
