    Abstract: A method for performing closed-loop control of a motor vehicle having a brake system with a stability control system comprises comparing an actual yaw rate with a setpoint yaw rate which is calculated using a model. A yaw moment of a closed-loop or open-loop assistance control of an assistance system for lane guidance or transverse guidance is taken into account during the calculation of the setpoint yaw rate. An electronic brake control unit which is suitable for carrying out the method and is connected to at least one vehicle sensor, in particular a steering angle sensor, yaw rate sensor and/or wheel rotational speed sensors. The brake control unit can bring about, through actuation of actuators, a driver-independent increase in and a modulation of the braking forces at the individual wheels of the vehicle.

    Abstract: A braking-system suitable for use on an automated vehicle includes a ranging-sensor, a braking-actuator and a controller in communication with the ranging-sensor and the braking-actuator. The ranging-sensor is used to detect an object proximate to a host-vehicle when the object resides in a field-of-view of the ranging-sensor. The field-of-view defines a bottom-edge of the field-of-view and a boundary of a conflict-zone, where the boundary corresponds to a portion of the bottom-edge. The a braking-actuator used to control movement of the host-vehicle. The controller determines a height of the object, determines a distance to the object, determines a range-rate of the object when the object is in the field-of-view, and activates the braking-actuator when an estimated-distance to the object is less than a distance-threshold, the height of the object is greater than a height-threshold, and the object has crossed the boundary and thereby enters the conflict-zone.

    Abstract: A lane departure prevention device includes: a travelling state recognition unit; a lane line recognition unit; a departure determination unit; a yaw moment calculation unit configured to calculate a target trajectory and a target yaw moment; a direction determination unit configured to determine the departure avoidance direction; a direction alignment determination unit configured to determine the turning direction of the vehicle by the target yaw moment coincides with the departure avoidance direction; and a braking force control unit configured to control the braking forces of the vehicle. In a case where the direction alignment determination unit determines that the results of determinations coincide with each other, the braking force control unit perform a braking force control, and in a case where the direction alignment determination unit doesn't determine that the results of determinations coincide with each other, the braking force control unit doesn't perform the braking force control.

    Abstract: A vehicle, a method, a secondary steering system unit and a secondary steering system are provided. The secondary steering system unit comprises: a fault determination arrangement arranged to determine the presence of a fault in the main steering system and a path controller arranged to generate an upcoming path for the host vehicle. The secondary steering system unit is arranged to steer the host vehicle along the path by differential braking upon determination that a fault is present in the main steering system. Furthermore, the secondary steering system is arranged to control the differential braking in dependence of both a yaw torque acting on the host vehicle as a result of the differential braking and a steering angle resulting from a generated alignment torque on a braked steerable wheel caused by the associated wheel suspension scrub radius.

    Abstract: Methods, systems are provided for controlling a travel path of a vehicle. The method includes the steps of detecting a braking of the vehicle by a computing device, calculating a friction ellipse for the vehicle based on the current state of the vehicle, defecting an intended travel path of the vehicle, detecting an actual travel path of the motor vehicle during the braking and determining if there is a path error where the actual travel path is outside the intended travel path when the braking is detected. When the actual travel path is outside the intended travel path then the method calculates a prospective friction ellipse for the vehicle, determines a compensating yaw moment to correct the path error, determines a maximum acceleration based on the prospective friction ellipse, and transmits a command to the autonomous braking system based on the maximum acceleration and the compensating yaw moment.

    Abstract: A vehicle travel support device is capable of properly controlling the operation of a steering device and the like from the viewpoint of supporting the travel of a vehicle stably even in a situation where a travel area is inappropriately demarcated by right and left lane marks at both sides. A virtual travel area can be set as a travel area when a first condition is satisfied, that is, when the separation between the right and the left lane marks in width direction of a road increases to an inappropriate extent from the viewpoint of demarcating the travel area because the separation therebetween gradually increases as the distance from the vehicle increases. The operation of a steering device and the like is controlled such that the vehicle will not depart from the virtual travel area set as the travel area.

    Abstract: A vehicle travel support device capable of continuing operation even when the recognition accuracy of a lane mark has been degraded, and the like, wherein the degree of control on the operation of a steering device or the like is set higher as the reliability of a lane mark becomes higher. In a state in which the reliability of a travel area demarcated by the lane mark is high, a vehicle's travel is relatively strongly or actively supported so that the vehicle will not depart from the travel area. On the other hand, the degree of control on the operation of the steering device or the like is set lower as the reliability of the lane mark is lower. In a state in which the reliability of the travel area demarcated by the lane mark is low, the vehicle's travel is relatively weakly or passively supported so that the vehicle will not depart from the travel area.
