Abstract

Vehicle dynamics control systems, previously only intended for yaw stabilization, are now being extended to incorporate rollover mitigation via braking. Current systems typically use a heuristic approach to control allocation, often utilizing only a subset of the available actuators. In this article a computationally-efficient, optimization-based control allocation strategy is used to map controller commands to braking forces on all four wheels, taking into account actuator constraints. Simulations show that the strategy is capable of preventing vehicle rollover for various standard test manoeuvres.
