    摘要: A vehicle behavior control device (S) determines, by using a vehicle velocity (V), a transmission function (K(s)) which is determined based on a specification of the vehicle, receives as an input a wheel turning speed (ω) obtained by differentiating a wheel turning angle (δ) of left and right front wheels (FW1, FW2) with respect to time, and outputs a target yaw moment (My). The device (S) also calculates, by using the determined target yaw moment (My), a left-wheel-side forward/backward force (FxCL) imparted to a left wheel side (left front wheel FW1 and left rear wheel RW1) of a vehicle (10) and a right-wheel-side forward/backward force (FxCR) imparted to a right wheel side (right front wheel FW2 and right rear wheel RW2) of the vehicle (10). Then, the device (S) performs control to drive brake units (14-17) and in-wheel motors (IWMfl, IWMfr, IWMrl, IWMrr) depending on a turning direction of the vehicle (10), with the left-wheel-side forward/backward force (FxCL) serving as a braking force (or driving force) and the right-wheel-side forward/backward force (FxCR) serving as a driving force (or braking force). It is thus possible to ensure directional stability and responsiveness when the vehicle turns, taking into account a frequency response characteristic of a motion state amount generated on the vehicle (10).

    摘要: A target turning angle calculation part 51 calculates a target turning angle δ on the basis of a steering angle θ and a vehicle speed V. A correction turning angle calculation part 52 calculates a transfer function K(s) which is a second transfer function, depending on the vehicle speed V, by using a difference between a transfer function G(s) which is a first transfer function determined on the basis of the specification of the vehicle and a stationary component G(0) of the transfer function G(s), the first transfer function having as an input a turning angle δ and as an output a yaw rate γ of the vehicle, the second transfer function having as an input a target turning rate δ*′ obtained by temporally differentiating the target turning angle δ* and as an output a correction turning angle δc. The correction turning angle calculation part 52 calculates a correction turning angle δc by multiplying the transfer function K(s) by the target turning rate δ*′. A final target turning angle calculation part 53 inputs thereto the target turning angle δ* from the target turning angle calculation part 51 and the correction turning angle δc from the correction turning angle calculation part 52 and calculates a final target turning angle δd by adding the correction turning angle δc to the target turning angle δ*.

    摘要: An actual detected current value and a target voltage value of an electric motor are subjected to a low-pass filter process, and amounts of change per time in the filtered actual current value and the filtered target voltage value are calculated. If the amount of change in the actual current value on the increase side is greater than a criterion value and the amount of change in the target voltage value on the decrease side is greater than a criterion value, it is judged that the stroke end has been reached. Then, the upper limit value of the target current value is set at the actual current value obtained in the immediately previous cycle of the feedback control, so as to prevent generation of unnecessary torque.

    摘要: A vehicle steering apparatus that can prevent a large returning torque from acting when a steering wheel is turned. Through processing of an assist control program, rotational torque (assist torque) of an electric motor is calculated by adding returning torque g·Trto to turning torque Tc (in actuality, subtracting the returning torque g·Trto from the turning torque Tc). The electric motor is driven and controlled in accordance with the calculated assist torque. When the steering torque is large, the calculated returning torque gain g decreases, and therefore, the returning torque g·Trto decreases or becomes zero. With this control, the greater the force (torque) required to operate the steering wheel, the smaller the influence of the returning torque, and steering feel at the time of turning the steering wheel is improved.
