Conditions for Loss of Stability of an Autonomous Vehicle During a Cornering Manoeuvre

Abstract

Abstract This paper deals with the method of creating a virtual autonomous vehicle dynamics model SimRod in AMESim environment and implementing such a model in Prescan and MATLAB/Simulink environments and performing co-simulation of the vehicle cornering maneuver at different values of the grip factor in these software. As a result, the driving dynamics of the SimRod vehicle is assessed in the simulation environment and the stability of the vehicle in the turn with respect to the grip factor and vehicle speed is analyzed.
