Abstract
Vehicle lateral stability plays an important role within vehicle passenger safety. The study of lateral stability is typically related to investigating the dynamics of relevant vehicle states: among these, the vehicle sideslip angle ([Formula: see text]) emerges as a prominent candidate. Sideslip angle measurement is expensive and impractical, hence estimation techniques are often used, typically based on Kalman filters or neural networks, both with their issues. This work presents an alternative estimation method based on the idea of splitting sideslip angle into kinematic and dynamic contributions, and by observing that the kinematic contribution is straightforward to estimate. Therefore, efforts are devoted into estimating dynamic sideslip angle, which is herein obtained through a parametric interpolation harnessing lateral acceleration. Only data available from traditional vehicle onboard sensors are used in the process. Experimental results are presented along several manoeuvres on a full-scale vehicle, with the estimator running online within a dSPACE unit, ultimately supporting the efficacy and real-time feasibility of the proposed approach.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
