Analysis of Vehicle Steering and Driving Bifurcation Characteristics

الملخص EN

The typical method of vehicle steering bifurcation analysis is based on the nonlinear autonomous vehicle model deriving from the classic two degrees of freedom (2DOF) linear vehicle model.

This method usually neglects the driving effect on steering bifurcation characteristics.

However, in the steering and driving combined conditions, the tyre under different driving conditions can provide different lateral force.

The steering bifurcation mechanism without the driving effect is not able to fully reveal the vehicle steering and driving bifurcation characteristics.

Aiming at the aforementioned problem, this paper analyzed the vehicle steering and driving bifurcation characteristics with the consideration of driving effect.

Based on the 5DOF vehicle system dynamics model with the consideration of driving effect, the 7DOF autonomous system model was established.

The vehicle steering and driving bifurcation dynamic characteristics were analyzed with different driving mode and driving torque.

Taking the front-wheel-drive system as an example, the dynamic evolution process of steering and driving bifurcation was analyzed by phase space, system state variables, power spectral density, and Lyapunov index.

The numerical recognition results of chaos were also provided.

The research results show that the driving mode and driving torque have the obvious effect on steering and driving bifurcation characteristics.
