Nonlinear Model Predictive Control for Enhanced Path Tracking and Autonomous Drifting through Direct Yaw Moment Control and Rear-Wheel-Steering
Gaetano Tavolo, Pietro Stano, Davide Tavernini +5
Path tracking (PT) controllers capable of replicating race driving techniques, such as drifting beyond the limits of handling, have the potential of enhancing active safety in crit…
Novel pre-emptive control solutions for V2X connected electric vehicles
Kai Man So, Gaetano Tavolo, Davide Tavernini +4
V2X technologies will become widespread in the next generation of passenger cars, and enable the development of novel vehicle control functionalities. Although a wide literature de…
Nonlinear Model Predictive Control for Preview-Based Traction Control
Gaetano Tavolo, Kai Man So, Davide Tavernini +2
This study presents a nonlinear model predictive control (NMPC) formulation for preview-based traction control, which uses the information on the expected tire-road friction coeffi…
Model Predictive Contouring Control for Vehicle Obstacle Avoidance at the Limit of Handling Using Torque Vectoring
Alberto Bertipaglia, Davide Tavernini, Umberto Montanaro +4
This paper presents an original approach to vehicle obstacle avoidance. It involves the development of a nonlinear Model Predictive Contouring Control, which uses torque vectoring…
