Modeling and Control of Automated Ground Vehicles with Tire Blowout

More than 400 deaths and over 78,000 crashes were caused by tire blowout annually, which cause huge life and property losses. Automated driving technologies, including but not limited to various advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), have undergone significant development recently. Can one of these technologies also help to address tire blowout control better than human drivers? This talk will first introduce an enhanced tire blowout model that can describe tire and vehicle responses more accurately after tire blowout. Then, shared control and automatic control based on different automated driving levels will be discussed. The developed models and control algorithms will be validated and discussed through both simulation and experimental tests. The talk will end with some future work and potential extended research directions.
