However, the higher Centre of Gravity (C.G) and the bigger sizing at the side area have led to the stability and the handling issues that degrade the vehicle’s performances, especially during the confrontation with external disturbances. This paper presents an analysis of an optimal control that enhances the handling and stability of the SUV. The Direct Yaw Control (DYC) method was used to control the vehicle’s accuracy and robustness towards environmental parameters during the critical manoeuvre. The Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR) and Linear Quadratic Integral (LQI) were compared to obtain the optimal performances during the control of the vehicle’s handling and stability. With the interference of an external disturbance during the critical manoeuvre, the results indicate that the LQI produce significant improvement in the vehicle’s handling and stability control.

In the active front steering control design and analysis, the linear bicycle model is used for controller design while the 7DOF nonlinear vehicle model is used as vehicle plant for simulation and controller evaluations. The vehicle handling test of the J-turn and single lane change maneuvers are implemented in computer simulations in order to evaluate the designed yaw rate tracking controller. The simulation results show that the CNF technique could improve the transient performances of yaw rate response and enhance the vehicle maneuverability.
