A Study on Integrated Control of AFS and ESP for the improvement of vehicle handing performance

차량 주행성능 향상을 위한 AFS 와 ESP 의 협조제어에 관한 연구

This paper propose an advanced control strategy to improve vehicle handling and directional stability by integrating Active Front Steering(AFS) with Electronic Stability Program(ESP) . The effect of the integrated control system on the vehicle handling characteristics and directional stability is studied through a close loop computer simulation of and eight degree of freedom nonlinear vehicle model and driver model. Simulation results confirm the effectiveness of the proposed control system and the overall improvements in vehicle handling and directional stability
