INTRODUCTION

Thanks to the development of electric motors and batteries,

the performance of EV is greatly improved in the past few

years. The most distinct advantage of an EV is the quick and

precise torque response of the electric motors. A further merit

of a 4 in-wheel-motor drived electric vehicle (4WD EV) is

that, the driving/braking torque of each wheel is

independently adjustable due to small but powerful motors,

which can be housed in vehicle wheel assemblies. Besides,

important information including wheel angular velocity and

torque can be achieved much easier by measuring the electric

current passing through the motor. Based on these remarkable

advantages, a couple of advanced motion controllers are

developed, in order to improve the handling and stability of a

4WD EV [17].

Modern motor vehicles are increasingly using active chassis

control systems to replace traditional mechanical systems in

order to improve vehicle handling, stability, and comfort.

These chassis control systems can be classified into the three

categories, according to their motion control of vehicle

dynamics in the three directions, i.e. vertical, lateral, and

longitudinal directions: 1) suspension, e.g. active suspension

system (ASS) and active body control (ABC); 2) steering, e.g.

electric power steering system (EPS) and active front steering

(AFS), and active four-wheel steering control (4WS); 3)

traction/braking, e.g. anti-lock brake system (ABS), electronic

stability program (ESP), and traction control (TRC).[1].

Based on our survey of research trends in this topic, many

researchers have worked about vehicle dynamics control,

stability, handling, and passengers comfort. All works give

very practical results for specific estimation parameters like

lateral acceleration, yaw rate and sideslip angle but most of

researchers used just vehicle planar models in their studies

with many control methods that means they didn’t take into

consideration heave, pitch, and roll motions of sprung mass.

Some studies[2,3,4] discuss the stability control for electric

vehicle in general and used planar vehicle model and sliding

mode control method theory in their studies, while another

works also used planar model to study handling and stability

of vehicles but with different control strategies such as using

of H∞ control theory [5], designing of controller dynamically

allocates the drive torque in terms of the vertical load and slip

rate of the four wheels[6],robust control method [7] to

preserve vehicle stability and improve vehicle handling

performance, and Fuzzy PID Method[8] to improve yaw

stability control for in-Wheel-Motored electric vehicle.

Other researches[9,10,11,12,13,14,15] in vehicle dynamic

field discussed the handling and stability in cars with

many control techniques and they took into account the full

model of vehicle which includes the suspension system and

rotational motions: yaw motion, pitch motion, and roll motion.

The main different between this work and the other is using of

Fuzzy PID controller with both of planar vehicle model and

full vehicle model to improve stability and handling. The

proposed control architecture in this paper similar control

architecture was used in [16] for the simulation of vehicle

stability control system in addition of rolling, pitching, and

bouncing of the sprung mass in the case of full vehicle model.

VEHICLE MODELS

In this paper, three types of vehicle dynamic model are

established: a non-linear vehicle planar dynamic model, full

vehicle model developed for simulating the vehicle dynamics,

and a linear 2-DOF reference model used for designing

vehicle yaw rate and desired sideslip angle) to driver’s

steering input. This work includes comparing of vehicle

stability performance in the case of using of planar vehicle

dynamic model and the other case which is full active vehicle

model.

Planar Vehicle Model

This vehicle model is a four-wheel vehicle, only considering

the planar motion: longitudinal, lateral, and yaw. And the

vehicle is modeled as a rigid body with

three-degree-of-freedom. The bob, pitch and roll motions are

ignored. Figure 1 shows the vehicle diagram with planar

motion.

Vehicle Reference Model

In vehicle dynamic studies, the reference vehicle model as

shown in Figure 3 is commonly used for yaw stability control

analysis and controller design. This model is linearized from

the nonlinear vehicle model based on the some assumptions:

Tires forces operate in the linear region, the vehicle moves on

plane surface/flat road (planar motion), and Left and right

wheels at the front and rear axle are lumped in single wheel at

the center line of the vehicle.

Figure 3: Vehicle refernce model(bicycle model).

The driver tries to control the vehicle’s stability during normal

and moderate cornering from the steer ability point of view.

Therefore, the reference model reflects the desired

relationship between the driver performance and the vehicle

stability factors. Hence, the model is designed to generate the

desired values of the yaw rate and the sideslip angle at each

instance, according to the driver’s steering wheel angle input

and the vehicle velocity, while considering a constant forward

velocity. The desired sideslip angle of the vehicle is tried to be

maintained as closest as possible to zero, since a vehicle

slipping to the sides is not a desired behavior.

0d On the other hand, while cornering, the yaw rate value cannot

be assumed as zero. Instead, it has to have a value that

depends on the front wheel inclination angle, the forward

velocity and the vehicle dimensions, and could be calculated

as follows [37]:

Where wzd and βd are the desired yaw rate and desired sideslip

The simulation result for the vehicle reference model which

represents the desired yaw rate is shown in Figure 4.

MODEL OF WHEEL DYNAMIC

A schematic of a modeled wheel is shown in Figure 5. The

wheel has a moment of inertia Iw and an effective radius Rw.

Torque T can be applied to the wheel and longitudinal tire

force Fx is generated at the bottom of the wheel. The wheel

rotates with angular velocity ω and moves with a longitudinal

velocity vx. A summation of the moments about the axis of

rotation of the wheel generates the dynamical equation shown

in following equation:

TIRE MODEL

At extreme driving condition, the tire may run at non-linear

religion. This paper uses Dugoff’s tire model which provides

for calculation of forces under combined lateral and

longitudinal tire force generation.. The longitudinal and lateral

fuzzification, repository, fuzzy inference, defuzzification, and

input/output quantification and so on. Fuzzy logic is a rule

which can map a space-input to another space-output. In

engineering application, fuzzy logic has the following

characters: 1) Fuzzy logic is flexible; 2) Fuzzy logic is based

on natural language, and the requirement for intensive reading

of data is not very high; 3) Fuzzy logic can take full advantage

of expert information; 4) Fuzzy logic is easy to combine with

traditional control technique.

Fuzzy PID controller takes E (the error between feedback

value and desired yaw rate value of controlled station as input.

Using fuzzy reasoning method it adjusts the PID parameters

(Kp, Ki, Kd). Change the PID parameters on line by using the

fuzzy rules; these functions form the self-setting fuzzy PID

controller. Its control system architecture is shown in Figure

6.

Figure 6: The structure of fuzzy PID controller.

CONTROL STRATEGY

In this paper the Fuzzy PID Controller is designed to improve

the vehicle yaw stability in the case of vehicle planar model

and the full vehicle model. The fuzzy PID controller can be

decomposed into the equivalent proportional control, integral

control and the derivative control components. we design a

control system which includes three parts: the reference

vehicle model(Bicycle model), full vehicle model( Actual

vehicle), and the fuzzy PID controller. The structure of the

two vehicle models with controller are given in Figure 7 and

Figure 8.

Depending on 𝛿 which can be gained by the driver action and

vx, the expected vehicle’s yaw rate wzd can be calculated

through the reference model. The PID controller is applied

widely, because it possesses the virtues such as the simple

structure , better adaptability and faster response time.

Regulating the parameters of the PID is the fussy task by

manual work, while regulating parameter by fuzzy controller

is very convenient. The sideslip angle 𝛽 is compared with

desired sideslip 𝛽𝑑 and the yaw rate wz is compared with

desired yaw rate wzd, and then the yaw rate is calculated. The

fuzzy control is implemented as follow: the input variable,

i.e., vehicle yaw rate error, is fuzzificated firstly, and then the

output variables, the direct yaw moment Mz. The fuzzification

is the process of transforming fact variables to corresponding

fuzzy variables according to selected member functions.

SIMULATION RESULTS AND DISCUSSION

In this paper, the simulation models are a planar vehicle

model which includes longitudinal, lateral, and yaw motions

only and a full vehicle model that includes active suspension

dynamics, roll, yaw and pitch motion. Using the vehicle

speed, yaw rate, longitudinal and lateral accelerations of the

vehicle at c.g. As the measurement vectors, the steering angle

as input signal. The control system is analyzed using

Matlab/Simulink. We assume that the vehicle travels at a

constant speed vx = 20m/s, and is subject to a steering input

from steering wheel. The steering input is set as a step signal

which sown in the figure 9.

CONCLUSION

Aiming at improving vehicle stability,the simulink model of

the vehicle is constructed with Fuzzy PID controller to

ensure and improve the vehicle stability in this paper. The

results and plots show a significant difference between the

vehicle performance in the case of without control and the

vehicle stability and performance in the case of using Fuzzy

PID controller. Also, it is found that, using Fuzzy PID

controller with both of planar and full vehicle models was

successful in improve the vehicle performance. The lateral

acceleration, yaw rate , and sideslip angle improved

significantly. Therefore vehicle stability control system using

fuzzy PID controller can enhance the performance and
