The increasing requirements for vehicle driving safety improvement have led to numerous
and in-depth studies on vehicle stability, especially for autonomous vehicles. The main …

Driver characteristics have been the research focus for automotive control. Study on
identification of driver characteristics is provided in this paper in terms of its relevant …

Dynamics and Optimal Control of Road Vehicles uniquely offers a unified treatment of tyre,
car and motorcycle dynamics, and the application of nonlinear optimal control to vehicle …

There is currently a strongly growing interest in obtaining optimal control solutions for
vehicle manoeuvres, both in order to understand optimal vehicle behaviour and, perhaps …

In this article, multitype bend tracking with discontinuous reference paths is researched by a
nonlinear terminal-free model predictive control (MPC) with an artificial reference path for an …

Previous researches about vehicle lateral dynamics mainly focus on one or several specific
working conditions and make simulation analysis in the time domain to compare the quality …

The nonlinear dynamics of the path-following control of passenger cars is analyzed in this
paper. The effect of specific modeling aspects, such as tire deformation, steering dynamics …

Aggressive vehicle maneuvers such as those performed by professional racing drivers
achieve high agility motion at the edge of handling limits. These aggressive maneuvers can …

This paper presents a novel approach to teach a vehicle how to drift, in a similar manner that
professional drivers do. Specifically, a hybrid structure formed by a Model Predictive …

A ski-stunt maneuver is a type of aggressive vehicle motions in which a four-wheel vehicle
runs on two wheels on one side, and the other two wheels are lifted in the air. It is a …
