Complex embedded automotive control systems

Objective

The objective of CEmACS is to contribute to a systematic, modular, model-based approach for designing complex automotive control systems. The Specific Target Research Project is aimed at combining research into the theory of multivariable control and nonlinear observers with a selection of novel prototype automotive control applications.

The basic research topics of CEmACS include classical multivariable control analysis and design techniques (in particular for high performance decentralised control systems in the presence of communicational time delays), hybrid and nonlinear and adaptive control, and observers with global convergence properties. Control and observer designs will be evaluated using two real-life benchmark integrated chassis control design applications.

These are:
(i) vehicle dynamics control for active safety (roll-over protection and, as a long-term goal collision avoidance by active steering),
(ii) multi-variable control design for ride and handling using multiple actuators (Generic Prototyping). For the evaluation prototype experimental vehicles will be provided by one of the industrial project partners.

The control approaches developed within the project will be implemented in the experimental vehicles and validated using a specified set of test manoeuvres. The systematic experimental validation will provide feedback for the further development of the basic research and control system design parts of the project.
