This paper introduces a design of active trailer steering system (ATS) for multi-trailer articulated vehicles (MTAHVs) using driver-software-in-the-loop (DSIL) real-time simulations. A yaw-plane MTAHV model is developed to derive an ATS controller. Then, the real-time versions of the controller and MTAHV models are constructed in LabVIEW and TruckSim, respecitvely. With the integration of these models, the real-time simulations are conducted with a vehicle simulator. The simulations indicate that the controller can effectively improve the MTAHV’s directional performance under the specified test maneuvers.

“…9 Compared with driver model considering the both preview information of tractor and trailer, it is mostly effective for the path following to establish the driver model using the motion cues of only truck. 10 Directional performance and highway stability are two important aspects that need to be considered in development and design of AHVs. To improve maneuverability and stability of AHV, a variety of control techniques have been investigated by researchers.…”

To improve the directional performance of articulated heavy vehicles (AHV), three previewed points driver model and LQR active trailer steering (ATS) strategy are proposed and examined using closed-loop driver/vehicle dynamics simulation. Firstly, a simplified linear three-degree-of-freedom (3-DOF) yaw plane model for AHV is established and validated. Secondly, based on the multi-point preview-predictor following strategy, the weighted-average error of three previewed points of the tractor is defined as the final lateral previewed displacement error. According to the assumption of constant yaw rate and the trajectory prediction of AHV, and three previewed points driver model has been configured, it’s path-following performance is verified. Thirdly, instead of using the idea of minimization, a linear quadratic regulator (LQR) controller is proposed based on the linear 3-DOF yaw plane model of AHV to make the control variables to keep following the desired responses. Through joint simulations using MATLAB/Simulink and TruckSim, the effectiveness of the built-in driver model, three-previewed point driver model and three-previewed point driver model + LQR ATS control methods on improving vehicle orientation performance were compared and analyzed through closed-loop driver/vehicle dynamics simulations. The significant effectiveness of the proposed method in improving maneuverability and stability is verified through low-speed 360° trajectory tracking tests and high-speed double lane change maneuver simulations. Finally, a hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) platform is used to further verify the effectiveness of the designed strategy.
