Tire Forces

Vehicles are usually equipped with driver assistance systems such as anti-lock brake, traction control and lateral stability control systems. Although the forces maneuvering a vehicle are generated inside the tire contact patch, state of the art control systems have no feedback directly from the tires. Instead, observers based on indirect measurements are employed to close the control loop. Wireless sensors embedded inside the tires can be used to extract valuable information from the tire deformations such as forces. These forces can be used to develop adaptive stability control systems which update their parameters in real-time depending on the road and vehicle conditions. Furthermore, controllers can selectively regulate tire forces by changing brake/drive torques at each tire. This paper examines the integration of accelerometer based tire sensors with lateral stability control system (ESP). Its aim is to present the main components of a smart-tire enabled ESP and a preliminary study on potential performance improvements.

As you know, a radical means to prevent skidding of the vehicle (TK) during braking is the use of such integrated automatic active safety systems as anti-lock braking system (ABS), emergency brake booster, traction control system (TRC), electronic brake force distribution system EBD), stability control system (VSC), tire pressure monitoring system (TPWS), electronic control brake system (ECB), electric power steering (EPS), integrated dynamic vehicle control system (VDIM). Also, the stable position of the vehicle when driving on the road is provided by a set of automatic devices (for example dynamic stabilization system, anti-lock and anti-slip systems, etc.). Most of the cases of violation of the stable position of the vehicle on the road are related to the process of its braking. The article considers an alternative approach to stabilizing the position of the vehicle on the road during braking due to another approach to the management of its braking system. The mathematical description and schemes of position of the vehicle in the course of braking are offered. The stability of the position of the vehicle is ensured by braking the rear wheels, or braking one of the rear wheels (internal in relation to the direction of skidding), due to the system of dynamic stabilization of the course angle. Braking of the rear wheels during the initial skidding during braking allows you to stabilize the course angle of the vehicle (with full braking of the rear wheels, the stabilization time is minimal). This significantly reduces the braking efficiency of the vehicle, as only the front wheels are brake. Braking of only one rear wheel allows to provide identical duration of transition process at the highest efficiency of braking of the vehicle. On the example of a conventional vehicle, a comparative analysis of the effectiveness of the methods of dynamic stabilization of the course angle by braking one and two rear wheels.

The wheel slip control systems are able to control the braking force more accurately and can be adapted to different vehicles more easily than conventional braking control systems. In order to achieve the superior braking performance through the wheel slip control, real-time information such as tire braking force at each wheel is required. In addition, the optimal target slip values need to be determined depending on the braking objectives such as minimum braking distance, stability enhancement, etc. In this paper, a vehicle stability control system is developed based on the braking monitor, wheel slip controller, and optimal target slip assignment algorithm. The braking monitor estimates the tire braking force, lateral tire force, and brake disk-pad friction coefficient utilizing the extended Kalman filter. The wheel slip controller is designed based on the sliding mode control method. The target slip assignment algorithm is proposed to maintain the vehicle stability based on the direct yaw-moment controller and fuzzy logic. A hardware-in-the-loop simulator (HILS) is built including electrohydraulic brake hardware and vehicle dynamics software. The effectiveness of the proposed stability control system is demonstrated through the HILS experiment.
