Abstract :
Four wheel steering nonlinear controller is developed to utilize the responsiveness and relaxed stability of the rear wheel steering in conjunction with front wheel steering using fuzzy logic robust controller based on Sugeno fuzzy model. Results have shown improvements in vehicle handling in the presence of noise, steering linkage play, and variation in vehicle parameters
