Abstract:
This paper deals with an active roll controller (ARC) of a load-dependent LCV (light commercial vehicle), since they are frequently inclined in rollover accidents because of the high CG (centre of gravity), inaccurate loading. Therefore, nowadays electronic stability program (ESP) function has also been integrated in them. The ARC algorithm was realized, depending on an equivalent active torque formation by an actuator against the existing roll moment in the opposite direction to stabilize and/or avoid the roll and/or rollover, simulated to assess objectively.
