Steering torque control using variable impedance models for a steer-by-wire system

This paper presents a novel sensor-less steering torque control method for applications to the steer-by-wire system. A steer-by-wire system has not any mechanical link to connect a steering wheel and a rack and pinion gear module. Instead of mechanical devices, two electric motors are used on each side. A one motor is attached to the steering wheel and the other is set on rack and pinion. The motor on the steering wheel works as a deliverer between a steering torque and load torque from the road. In this paper, we focus on motion control related to the steering feel based on impedance control. Therefore, the model of rack and pinion is not considered in this work. In most power steering systems, a torque sensor is used to set impedance effect on driver’s steering feel. In this paper, we proposed a novel steering control method without using any torque sensors. The effectiveness of a proposed method is confirmed from experimental results.     

A model of driver steering control incorporating the driver's sensing of steering torque

Steering feel, or steering torque feedback, is widely regarded as an important aspect of the handling quality of a vehicle. Despite this, there is little theoretical understanding of its role. This paper describes an initial attempt to model the role of steering torque feedback arising from lateral tyre forces. The path-following control of a nonlinear vehicle model is implemented using a time-varying model predictive controller. A series of Kalman filters are used to represent the driver's ability to generate estimates of the system states from noisy sensory measurements, including the steering torque. It is found that under constant road friction conditions, the steering torque feedback reduces path-following errors provided the friction is sufficiently high to prevent frequent saturation of the tyres. When the driver model is extended to allow identification of, and adaptation to, a varying friction condition, it is found that the steering torque assists in the accurate identification of the friction condition. The simulation results give insight into the role of steering torque feedback arising from lateral tyre forces. The paper concludes with recommendations for further work.     

Steady Turning of Two-Wheeled Vehicles

When driving along a circular path, the driver of a motorcycle controls the vehicle mainly by means of steering torque. If low steering torque is necessary, the driver feels that the vehicle is manoeuvrable. In this paper, a mathematical model concerning steering torque is developed; it takes into account the actual kinematic behaviour of the vehicle and the properties of motorcycle tyres. Tyre forces act at the contact points of toroidal tyres, which are calculated according to kinematic analysis. Non-linear equations are solved using an iterative approach. Several numerical results are presented, and the influence of tyre properties and some geometrical and inertial properties of the vehicle on steering torque are discussed.

Dynamic correction of the steering-characteristic curve and application to an EPS control system

The steering torque of an electric-power steering (EPS) motor is interrelated with the performance of the EPS control system, therefore calculating an exact steering torque is critical in this application. This study presents a dynamic correction method that greatly decreases the calculated error in the steering torque; the PID controller demonstrated here is therefore suitable for the demands of this system. Based on an analysis of the detection process of the steering torque sensor, we first deduced that the variation of the system resistance torque equals the difference between the measured value of the steering torque and the ideal one in the previous cycle. Based on this result, we then proposed a dynamic correction method. Finally, a comparison of the simulated and experimental results for several vehicles evidenced the effectiveness of this dynamic correction method.     

分布式驱动电动汽车转向工况转矩分配控制研究

针对分布式驱动车辆转向工况在低速下期望提高转向机动性能，高速下期望保证行驶稳定性的需求，充分考虑转向行驶内外侧车轮的转向关系以及车辆动力学，制定了适应车速变化的四轮转矩分配策略，建立了四轮轮毂电机驱动模型以及二自由度参考模型。为了改善分布式驱动转向机动性能，建立自抗扰控制器调整内外侧车轮转矩，形成合理的转速差，减小转向半径，以提高转向机动性；对于高速转向行驶稳定性的需求，通过二次规划方法优化分配各车轮驱动力矩，分析轮胎纵横向附着裕度建立目标函数，并加入附加横摆力矩和路面附着力的限制，进行车轮驱动转矩的在线优化分配，提高车辆转向行驶的稳定性；另外为避免2种控制模式转换时驱动转矩突变，根据车速和稳定性参数制定模糊规则决策2种模式的协调系数，保证2种控制模式的平滑过渡。基于CarSim和MATLAB/Simulink进行联合仿真，并搭建硬件在环平台进行试验，对所提出的方法进行验证。结果表明：在低速转向工况下，提出的分配策略能够调节内外侧车轮产生差速效果，与转矩平均分配的策略相比，转向半径有所减小，提高车辆机动性；高速转向工况下，分配策略能够保证车辆稳定转向，与未考虑稳定性控制的分配策略相比，能更好地跟踪目标轨迹，且横摆角速度控制在参考横摆角速度附近，证明了所提控制策略的有效性。
