Neural Network Control Approach of Vehicle Active Yaw Moment

A neural network controller was designed to generate additional yaw moment of the vehicle. This controller was expected to make the yaw rate tracking the desired trajectory. A yaw rate tracking control model has been developed based on two degree of freedom vehicle dynamic state equation. The proposed model was employed to calculate the yaw rate and slip angle response characteristics of a vehicle under severe cornering maneuver, and it shows the handling and stability is significantly improved as compared to the uncontrolled one. At last, the design of a semi-physical simulation experiment for further research is described.
