Sammanfattning
This thesis concerns an investigation of a safety system to avoid rollover and understeering
in a heavy vehicle. This safety system includes a motion prediction with
implemented braking action, as well as a yaw controller. The motion prediction has
a 2 second prediction horizon, and the braking action is implemented in all wheels.
The motion prediction includes a model of the vehicle based on Newtonian formalism
and the tire model is based on the Pacejka 2002 model. The yaw controller is
a QFT design, and is implemented on the rear wheels.
The contribution to the field is the investigation of a real-time motion prediction
safety system, which aims to reduce the risk of rollover and understeering under
normal driving conditions. The objective is that this system would predict and implement
a preventive action sooner than a driver realistically could, thus reducing
the risk of a critical traffic situation.
The thesis work has been conducted through computations and simulations in Matlab
and Simulink, and simulations in C++.
