  • Abstract
    This paper describes how dynamic optimization can be used to evaluate the potential of different actuator combinations for extended vehicle controllability. The paper illustrates the methodology by comparing performance of rear axle steering with wheel torque distribution. The evaluated maneuver is a rapid sideways motion, aiming at avoiding a suddenly appearing obstacle on the road.
