Abstract:
The steering trapezoid designed according to the Ackermann steering geometry potentially causes excessive tire wear and affects the steering performance due to the large tire deformation resulting from large lateral acceleration. To address these problems, this article introduces a design method for a race car steering system that considers the tire side slip angles to optimize the target steering angle relation. First, a racing path was planned by genetic algorithm according to the given race track and race car driver characteristics. Next, the objective function of the ideal steering angle relation was constructed by introducing the Ackermann correction coefficient and establishing the modified Ackermann steering geometry model, considering the tire side slip angle. Then, a data acquisition experiment was designed, and the Ackermann correction coefficient was identified by the proposed simulation algorithm. Finally, the coincidence degree of wheel steering centers was defined as the evaluation index, which can be used to describe and evaluate the performance of the coordination for wheels’ movement. Simulation results show that the design method of the steering system effectively improves the handling stability of the race car and reduces the tire leaning-grind.

Abstract:
This article focuses on the synthesis of a steering mechanism that exactly meets the requirements of Ackermann steering geometry. It starts from reviewing of the four-bar linkage, then discusses the number of points that a common four-bar linkage could precisely trace at most. After pointing out the limits of a four-bar steering mechanism, this article investigates the turning geometry for steering wheels and proposes a steering mechanism with incomplete noncircular gears for vehicle by transforming the Ackermann criteria into the mechanism synthesis. The pitch curves, addendum curves, dedendum curves, tooth profiles and transition curves of the noncircular gears are formulated and designed. Kinematic simulations are executed to demonstrate the target of design.

Abstract:
Nowadays, a concept of tilting three-wheel vehicle is introduced, one of which is the electric tilting tricycle to provide an alternative mode of transportation. Some of the tilting tricycle design usinga tadpole trike configuration and it needs an adequate steering system that can be synergized with tilting mechanism. The steering mechanism follows the Ackermann steering geometry. Usage of Ackermann geometry means applying a mechanism of trapezoidal four-bar linkage to the tricycle. To create and maintain the simple trapezoid shape, Triple Ball Tie-rod model, a single rod which supports three ball joints, is proposed. Since the capabilities of the model are yet to be proven, this research evaluates the usageof a tie-rod model to find out its capabilities to support the works of the steering mechanism of the tricycle. The measurements are conducted after the simulation of the 3D model to extract some data such as maximum lean angle and inner and outer steering angles. Another simulation using regular tie-rod model also conducted with the same method for comparison purposes. The results of the study are maximum allowed tilting angle and generated Ackermann steering angles. Each designed models have their respectiveadvantages.

This brief outlines results of a numerical study involving a novel mechanism called the Fahey eight-member mechanism (FEMM), that has application to automotive steering. This mechanism is considered in terms of a planar kinematics steering model. We derive the governing kinematics and compare results between a synthesized FEMM and two synthesized Ackermann-type steering linkages. Results suggest that FEMM better approximates ideal steering geometry, and could allow an extended range of motion for moderate speed operations.

Abstract:
An image-based parking guiding system is proposed to help drivers to park their cars into parking space. The proposed system only relies on an embedded hardware and a wide-angle camera to capture images for analysis. The proposed system needs no steering sensor; itis a money-saved technique; moreover, it is suitable for used cars and after-market usage. The input image is first transformed into a top-view image by a transformation matrix of homography. Then corner feature points on two continuous images are extracted to match each other. The feature-point pairs are further pruned by a least-square error metrics. The remained feature-point pairs are then used to estimate the vehicle motion parameters, where a coordinate transformation model is used to model and simulate the Ackermann steering geometry to describe the vehicle motion. At last, the vehicle trajectory is generated based on the vehicle motion parameters and the parking guiding lines are drawn according to the vehicle trajectory.

The design of steering trapezoidal mechanism is one of the important aspects of the vehicle steering system. Every parameterin steering trapezoidal has significant influences on the steering performance, stability and tire service life of the vehicle.Based on the analysis of the relationship of the inside and outside wheel angle by analytic method, Matlab software can be used to design FSC racing steering trapezoidal mechanism. Considering the conditions of the automobile race,the corresponding parameter of the steering trapezoid is designed to make the relationship of the l wheel angle close to Ackermann geometry relationship, which reduces the wear of tires, ensuring good steering performance and holding the road so well.

Abstract:
The tension-actuated steering system is a vehicular steering design that comprises a motorized gear system, pulleys, inelastic string, main steering bar, and a strain gauge. This development is aimed to produce a steering design that could enhance the efficiency of steering systems in quad-wheeled (i.e. four-wheeled) robots. In this work, the steering system of conventional passenger vehicles and existing quad-wheeled robots are reviewed and their technical deficiencies are improved based on cost, power and production factors. Thus, the tension-actuated steering system is proposed as a solution for mechanizing steering functions in quad-wheeled robots. It is expected that this work will stimulate interest and enthusiasm.

Abstract:
The Ackermann principle was developed when it became possible to separately control the four wheels of a moving object in the process of turning. In this case, two tasks arose. The first task was to control the wheels to ensure their pure rolling when the object is turned. The solution of this problem was in the Ackermann principle. The second task was to implement this principle in a specific mechanism. The paper analyzes the mechanisms common in modern cars in order to assess their compliance with the Ackermann principle. The method of analysis was in generating and modeling a finite-difference equation describing the process of transferring the movement of the steering wheel to the movement required to turn the wheels.

Abstract:
A nonholonomic tracking controller is designed and adapted to work with both differential steering and Ackermann steering based platforms whose dynamics are represented using a unicycle model. The goal of this work is to find a relatively simple approach that offers a practical alternative to bulky and expensive algorithms, but still bolsters applicability where many other lightweight algorithms are too lax. The hope is that this alternative will offer a straightforward approach for groups interested in autonomous vehicle research but who do not have the resources or personnel to implement more complex solutions. In the first phase of this work, saturation constraints based on differential drive kinematics are added to ensure that the vehicle behaves intuitively and does not exceed user defined limitations. A new strategy for mapping commands back into a viable envelope is introduced, and the restrictions are accounted for using Lyapunov stability criteria. This stage of work is validated through simulation and experimentation. Following the development of differential drive methods, similar techniques are applied to Ackermann steering kinematic constraints. An additional saturation algorithm is presented, which likewise is accounted for using Lyapunov stability criteria. As with the differential case, the Ackermann design is validated through simulation and experimentation. Overall, the results presented in this work demonstrate that the developed algorithms show significant promise and offer a lightweight, practical solution to the problem of vehicle tracking control.

Stáž byla absolvována mezi prosincem 2010 a květnem 2011 ve společnosti a.d.Tramontana, mající sídlo v Palau de Santa Eulália, Španělsko. Pro kompletní návrh podvozku a odpružení jakéhokoli vozidla je nezbytná znalost mnoha technických disciplín. Tato diplomová práce se zabývá dvěma z nich – odpružení a řízení. Nejprve je rozebrána teorie, na kterou se může navázat v praktické části práce. Velká pozornost byla věnována srozumitelnosti textu a názornosti obrázků, bez zbytečných detailů, avšak bez vynechání důležitého. Tuto práci je tedy možné užít jako prvního kroku před návrhem podvozku. V další části je popsáno, jak byla probraná teorie využita při návrhu řízení u skutečného vozu, přičemž největší pozornost je věnována Ackermannově teorii řízení a geometrii zabraňující samořízení při propružení. V závěrečných částech je pozornost věnována ukázce některých z každodenních činností v malosériové výrobě automobilů – jde o zjištění maximálně možného pohybu kola při propružení a proces výroby příčných trojúhelníkových ramen včetně návrhu jejich připevnění k šasi.

The main objective of this work is the development and characterization of a robotic vehicle ℏelvis III in order to use it in the development of researches focused on the fields of mobile robotics control and navigation. Initially the propulsion system was characterized in order to determine the real velocity of vehicle in real conditions (four different kinds of grounds were used). In addition to this, the steering system was also characterized by applying the well-known bicycle kinematic model. During these experimental tests we could find the relation between the position of the servo-motor and the value of steering angle of the bicycle model. The real values of CEP (Circular Error Probability) and SEP (Spherical Error Probability) errors of the vehicle embedded GPS (Global Positioning System) were determined based on two experiments: the first one was carried out in São Carlos – SP (Brazil) and the second one in Villavicencio – Meta (Colombia). During the GPS experiments we could also characterize the vehicle embedded IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit). Then we could observe and measure the effect of solar light on the LIDAR sensor (Laser Imaging Detection and Ranging) performance. Finally, the forward vehicle dynamics is described, with the determination of the center of mass of the vehicle and the observation of the normal forces behavior in the vehicle wheels when it is stopped or moved on an inclined floor.

Abstract:
This paper presents the kinematic synthesis of a steering linkage that changes track, wheelbase, camber, and wheel height in a turn, while maintaining Ackermann geometry. Each wheel is controlled by a 5-SS platform linkage, which consists of a moving platform connected by five SS chains to the vehicle chassis. Ackermann steering geometry ensures all four wheels will travel on circular arcs that share the same center point. S denotes a spherical or ball-in-socket joint. The kinematic synthesis problem is formulated using seven spatial task positions. The procedure computes the SS chains that guide the platform through the seven task positions, and examines all combinations of five that form a single degree-of-freedom linkage. A kinematic analysis identifies the performance of each design candidate, and eliminates functional defects. In the design process, the task positions are modified randomly within constraints in order to find a useful mechanism design. Mechanisms are deemed useful if they travel smoothly through all seven task positions. Upon analyzing 1000 sets of task positions, only 10 useful mechanisms were found. A second iteration produced 22 useful mechanisms from 1000 task sets. An example of the design of a steering linkage is presented. A video of this linkage can be seen at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hEvbDiyQMiw.

This paper deals with the design of steering mechanisms in road vehicles. With this aim, the kinematic models of three types of steering linkages are considered and Ackermann steering geometry is used to define the objective function. The proposed method uses a dimensional synthesis technique based on local optimization to obtain the dimensions of the links. The problem is formulated as function generator synthesis, where the inner wheel is supported by the input link and the output link is supported by the outer wheel. The formulation presented in this paper was developed by the authors and it is capable of considering the necessary accuracy conditions in the design of this kind of linkage. Three examples are shown to illustrate the application of the method.

Abstract:
This article describes a novel automatic steering system for a 30.73m long double articulated bus equipped with three independent steer-by-wire axles. Two model-based control design approaches are proposed. The first approach uses a kinetic vehicle model to design a train-like guidance system and a force-canceling that avoids excessive mechanical stress in the joints and the chassis. While the first approach requires high computational efforts, the second approach utilizes a kinematic model to design an extended Ackermann-steering system that performs well on available electronic control units (ECU). Multi-body-system (MBS) simulations show that both approaches offer high tracking performance and low mechanical stress in the chassis of the vehicle. Furthermore, road tests with the prototype AutoTram® Extra Grand confirm the simulation results.
