Safety Concerns in Automatic Control of Heavy-Duty Articulated Vehicles
Wei Liang, Jure Medanic, Roland Ruhl
Control system design is one of the most critical issues for implementation of intelligent vehicle systems. Wide ranged fundamental research has been undertaken in this area and the safety isues of the fully automated vehicles are clearly recognized. Understanding of vehicle performance constrains is essential for a good grasp of this problem. This paper discusses safety issues of heavy-duty vehicles in the context of automatic steering and braking effects on lateral control. Effect of tire force saturation, vehicle handling characteristics, and differential brake control (to reduce trailer swing) are analyzed to improve understanding of the truck dynamics and control tasks.
