Integrated control of active front steering and direct yaw moment for multi-wheel independently driven electric vehicles

Vehicle active safety control attracts ever increasing attention in order to improve the stability and the maneuverability. In this paper, an integrated control of active front steering and direct yaw moment for multi-wheel independently driven electric vehicles is proposed. The proposed system is co-simulated based on the vehicle simulation package CarSim in connection with Matlab/Simulink. The simulated results verify the effectiveness of the proposed control strategy.
