Title Nonlinear and Hybrid Systems in Automotive Control
Author Rolf Johansson; Anders Rantzer
Biblio 2003; 464 Pages; Hard Cover
Description A new generation of strategies for vehicle and engine control systems has become necessary because of increasing requirements for accuracy, ride, comfort, safety, complexity, and emission levels. In contrast to earlier systems, new control systems are based on dynamic physical models and the principals of advanced nonlinear control. With contributions from leading scientists in the field, this book presents an overview of research in this rapidly-expanding area. New approaches to solving theoretical problems, as well as numerous systems and control research issues, are covered. Subjects include: Vehicle dynamics and active suspension; Anti-lock braking systems and optimal braking control; Combustion-engine control; Stability analysis of hybrid systems; Modeling of driver position and behavior; Nonlinear and hybrid systems in Automative control will enable researchers, control engineers, automative engineers, and students, to understand the engine and whole-vehicle models necessary for control.
