Experimental Validation of Yaw Stability Control Strategies for Articulated Vehicle Combinations
Paper in proceeding, 2024

Articulated Heavy Vehicles (AHVs) play a crucial role in today's transportation, offering significant commercial and environmental advantages. However, challenges like jackknifing and trailer swing in AHVs highlight the need for focused research. This paper introduces innovative yaw stability algorithms designed to tackle these concerns, employing advanced control allocation techniques, including distributed control allocation. A power loss minimization algorithm with four different methods to maintain yaw stability is tested with real test vehicles. In this framework, the algorithms ensure that control actions stay within predetermined safe limits, contributing significantly to the overall safety and efficiency of AHVs.
