Vehicle Dynamics Control for Rollover Prevention
Vehicle rollover accidents are a particularly dangerous form of road accident. Existing vehicle dynamics controllers primarily deal with yaw stability, and are of limited use for dealing with problems of roll instability. This thesis deals with the development of a new type of vehicle dynamics …

Topics in Automotive Rollover Prevention: Robust and Adaptive Switching Strategies for Estimation and Control
… Of particular importance is the problem rollover prevention, which is an important problem plaguing vehicles with a high center of gravity (CG). Vehicle rollover is, statistically, the most dangerous accident type, and it is difficult to prevent it due to the time varying nature of the …

Rollover prevention and path following of a scaled autonomous vehicle using nonlinear model predictive control
… be distinguished: the yaw-rate instability, the rollover and the jack-knife phenomenon. The main goal of this study is to develop a yaw-rate and rollover stability controller of an Autonomous Scaled Ground Vehicle (ASGV) using Nonlinear Model Predictive Control (NMPC). Open Source Software (OSS) …

Development and analysis of active rear axle steering for 8x8 combat vehicle
… increase stability at higher speeds, avoiding rollover and ability to dampen the effects of external disturbances. The two controllers that are proposed to improve the lateral vehicle dynamics include a feed-forward Zero Side Slip (ZSS) controller which steers the rear axle based on the vehicle …

Design and Development of a Novel Reconfigurable Wheeled Robot for Off-Road Applications
… longitudinal/lateral stability, and rollover prevention. Robot agility, stability, and high speed have been considered during the design process. The new design provides different configuration modes. These configurations allow for controlling the robot's Center Of Mass (COM) height …
