Abstract. The main objective of this paper is to develop active control mechanism based on fuzzy
logic controller (FLC) for improving vehicle path following, roll and handling performances
simultaneously. At the first stage, 3DOF vehicle model which includes yaw rate, lateral velocity
(lateral dynamic) and roll angle (roll dynamic) are developed. The controller produces optimal
ON
moment to increase stability and roll margin of vehicle by receiving the steering angle as an input
and vehicle variables as a feedback signal. The effectiveness of proposed controller and vehicle
model are evaluated during fishhook and single lane-change maneuvers. Simulation results
demonstrate that FLC by reducing roll angle, lateral velocity and acceleration, vehicle roll
resistance and handling properties are improved. Finally the sensitivity and robustness analysis of
developed controller for varying longitudinal speeds are investigated.

Keywords: vehicle dynamic, rollover, handling, stability, active safety controller.
1. Introduction
There are two perspectives for handling ratings. One perspective is how safe the vehicle is to
PE
drive. The other is how well the vehicle gives an enthusiast driver a pleasurable sense of control.
Suspension system and its components (stiffness and damping rates) have significant role in
vehicle motion and handling properties. Coil springs which usually are used in passenger vehicle
suspension system are less stiff with better ride comfort compared to leaf springs. Therefore, the
roll stiffness of the vehicle with coil springs is usually less than in vehicles with leaf springs. In
order to improve the roll characteristic of coil springs an antiroll bar mechanism must be used
R'S
(Fig. 1).

Various mechanisms such as optimal geometry passive [2], semi active [3], active [4]
suspensions and anti-roll bar [5] systems have been studied to compromise the trade-offs between
ride and handling. Due to active suspension systems cost, energy usage and packaging difficulties,
they are used on a limited basis for Luxury and special vehicles. Whilst, anti-roll bar recently has

become practical solution to improve vehicle handling, roll-stability and ride comfort. Also, active
control systems such as DYC, AFS, and VDC are developed in previous researches to improve
PY
vehicle stability and roll resistance [6-10]. Papelis et al. [7] utilized Electronic stability control
(ESC) to assist driver in maintain vehicle control and prevention of vehicle loss of control. Their
results showed that using ESC 25 % reduces loss of control in severe maneuvers.
Previous researches studied the mechanism and systems for prevention of rollover while
ensuring not to satisfy handling and ride properties. In [8] a novel FLC is proposed to improve
CO
vehicle safety by regulating dampers in semi active suspension system. The controller stabilize
the sprung mass which improves vehicle handling and reduces possibility of overturning. Singh
and Darus [9] presented an active roll control system using an active suspension based on fuzzy
logic control for enhancement of vehicle roll dynamics. Mashadi et al. [10] developed a DYC
system based on LQR, for vehicle path following with considering the driver performance. They
used 2 DOF vehicle model for developing of LQR controller. Their results showed that LQR
AL
controller could be properly applied for vehicle path following and improving handling
characteristic. They tried to maintain the lateral acceleration and velocity under 0.8 m/s2 and
40 m/s respectively.
In previous studies various control strategies are utilized to control vehicle path control,
ON
improving ride, handling and rolling resistance systems [11-17]. Wu et al. [11] developed a robust
chassis controller to improve vehicle handling performance and lane keep ability by utilizing
controller. Wang et al. [14] used fuzzy inference engines to design steering controller and
determine the given driving speed for autonomous vehicle. Mashadi et al. [10, 12] proposed an
optimal LQR and PID controllers for vehicle path following based on intelligent optimization
method. They utilized genetic algorithm procedure to adapt a set of optimized controller
RS
parameters suitable for various driving styles, road conditions and the initial errors of vehicle
position and orientation.
A unified chassis control proposed in [18] to prevent vehicle rollover, and to improve vehicle
maneuverability and its lateral stability by integrating electronic stability control (ESC) and active
front steering (AFS). The rollover prevention was achieved through speed control, and the vehicle
PE
stability is improved via yaw rate control. Cao et al. [19] proposed the integrated controller of the
yaw and rollover stability controls using nonlinear prediction model. The linearization tire model
was built up as the rollover predictive model and its accuracy obtained by real vehicle tests. These
researches were focused on improving handling, ride or rollover resistance separately by active
control systems. Whilst in this paper a tradeoff between handling properties and rollover resistance
compromised through anti roll bar moment system which is controlled based on FLC. The
R'S
proposed control structures are typically based on combination of the steer angle, roll angle,
longitudinal speed, yaw and roll moments, lateral acceleration and velocity, which controls the
yaw rate and the roll motion simultaneously.
2. Vehicle model
HO
In order to investigate the roll over resistance and handling behavior of vehicle simultaneously,
integrated lateral and roll dynamics should be considered. So, in this paper two vehicle model is
utilized. At the first, a 3 DOF roll model for controller designing is developed which its degrees
includes: lateral velocity, yaw and roll. In addition to realize the simulating of the vehicle model,
a comprehensive vehicle model (an 8 DOF model) in [10] is utilized to simulation.
T
In this article, to simulate the control of a vehicle during roll tests, as demonstrated in Fig. 2,
a non-linear 8-DOF is used. The DOFs associated with this model are the longitudinal velocity ,
the lateral velocity , the yaw rate , the roll Φ, and four wheel rotational speeds, , ,

In order to evaluate the roll behavior of vehicle during sever maneuvers, the main parameters
which effects on vehicle roll stability should be considered such as: variation of center of gravity,
vehicle track, tire and suspension properties. In this paper as shown in Fig. 3, a 3 DOF vehicle
model which combines 2 DOD bicycle model ( and ) with 1 DOF roll model (Φ) is developed.

These equations give the load transfer between the left and right wheels due to a constant
lateral acceleration. The equations show that a higher vehicle center of gravity distance from the
R'S
roll axis, hs, results in a larger load transfer at the front and rear wheels. Furthermore, a load
transfer at the front and rear wheels is basically proportional to the front and rear roll stiffness
ratios to the total roll stiffness, respectively.
The original rollover resistance ratings were determined solely from the vehicle’s static
stability factor. The SSF of a vehicle is a calculation of rollover resistance, based on its most
important geometric properties. As shown in Fig. 3, vehicle’s SSF is calculated taking the

The lower the SSF number, the more likely the vehicle is to roll over in a tripped single-vehicle

3. Controller design
PY
In this study, two types of controller are developed, one based on FLC for nonlinear vehicle
model and the other is based on linear quadratic regulation for linear vehicle roll model. In both
cases front steering angle and momentum deduced by controller for prevention of increasing roll
angle are defined as system inputs. State variables include lateral velocity, yaw rate, roll angle and
roll rate as:

Since the main objective of this study is to reduce roll angle or increase rollover threshold
(stability), so controller should regulates the lateral load transfer (LLT) in its optimal condition.
LLT criteria as a function of lateral acceleration, roll and roll rate is obtained as:

When one of the tires losses its contact with road and applied force on tire eliminates, rollover
occurs. In this condition, LLT becomes 1 and rollover happens. In other words, when the forces
at the both sides are equal, LLT becomes zero and vehicle is in most stable condition.

Owing to its simple practical nature, Fuzzy type controllers shown in Fig. 4 are developed for
roll resistance of the vehicle model. This type of controllers has the advantages of using expert’s
attitude and experimental results. The anti-roll moment control law for the desired state space

– Fuzzification: Using membership functions to graphically describe a situation (Fuzzification
is the process of changing a real scalar value into a fuzzy value).
– Rule evaluation: Application of fuzzy rules (The rules are composed of a set of if–then rules,
from which an inference mechanism is formed).
– Defuzzification: Obtaining the crisp or actual results (The centroid defuzzification technique
CO
is utilized in this paper to defuzzify set to get a numerical output as the control signal).
In this paper FLC applying Mamadani implication and based on state variables and control
parameters, three condition are considered for fuzzification which demonstrate the status of
control strategy parameters; low, normal, and high. The rules are composed of a set of if-then
rules, from which an inference mechanism is formed. In other words rules describe the relation
between state variable and control parameters.
AL
As shown in Fig. 4 a FLC is developed to design a control strategy, which has two state
variables as inputs (roll rate and lateral acceleration) and one control parameter as an output
(Anti-roll moment). The antiroll-bar controller is modeled in the FLC and their membership
functions of the inputs and outputs are shown in the figure 5.
ON
The designed FLC has 2 inputs, 3 MFs for each input and 9 fuzzy rules for each input.
Requested anti roll moment is normalized so that the number 0.5 allocated to optimum moment.
Therefore, the center of MFs are located in 0.5. Also, as shown in Fig. 5, rules are set to respect
the rules overlap. The surface of them are shown in the figure 6. Rules based on vehicle roll model
are regulated whenever, lateral acceleration and roll-rate of vehicle is increased, controller
commands anti-roll bar system to produce more moment to improve vehicle handling properties

5. Conclusion
In this study, the effectiveness of anti-roll bar mechanism was investigated for improving
vehicle, stability, roll resistance, path following and handling properties. For this purpose FLC
theory based on vehicle 3 DOF roll dynamic are developed to produce optimal momentum.
ON
Controller are trained to follow desired side slip, roll angle, and yaw rates during various fishhook
maneuvers. An 8 DOF vehicle model in MATLAB/Simulink environment is utilized to simulate
the controller performance and vehicle behavior. Simulation results clarified that, control strategy
hold the lateral acceleration and side slip angles less than limited critical overturning and
RS
instability for various speeds and maneuvers. Moreover, the FLC roll and handling controller
showed better results, with smaller control effort, roll and side slip angles in severe maneuvers.
Finally, in regard to that in quick emergency maneuvers, vehicle has a greater likelihood to roll over,
the sensitivity analysis of FLC to longitudinal speed is conducted. It showed that proposed controller
could be more effective in high speed, which prevents the vehicle overturning in quick maneuvers.
