Abstract

This paper presents the design of an active roll controller for a vehicle and an experimental study using an electric actuating roll control system. Firstly, based on a three degrees of freedom linear vehicle model, the controller is designed using lateral acceleration and rollrate feedback. In order to investigate the feasibility of an active control system, experimental work is carried out using a hardware-in-the-loop (Hil) setup which has been constructed using the devised electric actuating system and the full vehicle model including tire characteristics. The performance is evaluated by an experiment using the Hil setup in which steering maneuvers are carried out. Finally, in order to enhance the control performance in a transient region, the hybrid control strategy is proposed and evaluated.
