Differential-Braking-Based Rollover Prevention for Sport Utility Vehicles with Human-in-the-loop Evaluations

TLDR
In this article, an anti-rollover control algorithm based on the Time-To-Rollover (TTR) metric is proposed in real-time, and the performance of the proposed control system was compared with other threshold-based rollover-prevention control algorithms.
Abstract
An anti-rollover control algorithm based on the Time-To-Rollover (TTR) metric is proposed in this paper. A simple model with steering and direct yaw moment control inputs was constructed to calculate the TTR in real-time. The TruckSim dynamic simulation software was used to verify the control performance, as well as to simulate the system dynamics in the UM-Oakland driving simulator. Both the simple and complex (TruckSim) models were tuned to match the behavior of a 1997 Jeep Cherokee vehicle with lateral acceleration up to 0.6 g. The performance of the proposed control system was compared with other threshold-based rollover-prevention control algorithms. Finally, a human-in-the-loop experiment was conducted to study the performance of the proposed algorithm under more realistic driving conditions.

Safety and Performance Enhancement: The Bosch Electronic Stability Control (ESP)

TL;DR: In this paper, Bosch presented ESP contributions to active safety and the required adaptations to support four wheel drive vehicles and to mitigate rollover situations. But, despite improvements in passive safety and efforts to alter driver behavior, the absolute number of highway fatalities in 2002 increased to the highest level since 1990 in the US.
