Abstract

In this paper we address the problem of vehicle rollover avoidance control by applying the novel control method of Invariance Control which allows a nonlinear and non smooth controller design together with a formal proof of stability. The presented strategy leaves a maximum degree of freedom for steering to the driver. In addition a time-discrete rollover avoidance controller suitable for implementation is derived, which is both, robust and real-time computable. We validate the proposed approach by hardware-in-the-loop simulations of the nonlinear vehicle with a human driver in the loop, using a force feedback steering device.
