Introduction to driver assistance systems-levels, active stability control, ride quality, technologies for addressing traffic congestion, emissions and fuel economy;
Lateral Vehicle Dynamics: Types of lateral systems, kinematic models, dynamic bicycle model, from body fixed to global coordinates: lateral vehicle control: Steering control for automated lane keeping – state feedback, steady state analysis: understanding steady state cornering, the output feedback problem- compensator design with look ahead measurement,
Longitudinal Vehicle Dynamics: longitudinal vehicle model, driveline dynamics, longitudinal vehicle control: cruise control, architecture, adaptive cruise control, Anti-lock brake systems (ABS).
Individual vehicle stability and string stability- string stability with constant spacing, string stability with constant time gap, controller for transitional maneuvers, automated highway systems, longitudinal control for vehicle platoons, string stability with inter-vehicle communication
Electronics Stability Control: control design for differential braking based systems, a steer-by-wire system, All-wheel-drive(AWD) torque control: active automotive suspensions: H2 optimal control, LQR formulation for active suspension design, semi-active automotive suspensions:optimal semi-active suspensions.
Rollover Prevention Control: rollover dynamics, rollover index and active rollover prevention, comparison of performance with various rollover indices.
Lab Experiments Based on Simulation Tools.
