Four-Wheel Steering Control for Mining X-by-Wire Chassis Based on AUKF State Estimation
To address the challenges to driving stability caused by large-curvature steering of wire-controlled mining vehicles in narrow tunnels, a fused four-wheel steering (4WS) control strategy based on real-time estimation of vehicle state parameters is ...

Optimal Reconfiguration Control of the Yaw Stability of the Tractor‐Semitrailer Vehicle [PDF]
An optimal reconfiguration control scheme based on control allocation (CA) is proposed to stabilize the yaw dynamics of the tractor‐semitrailer vehicle. The proposed control scheme is a two‐level structure consisting of an upper level of sliding mode yaw moment controller (SMYC) and a lower optimal brake force distributor (BFD).

Unsteady aerodynamic analysis of space shuttle vehicles. Part 4: Effect of control deflections on orbiter unsteady aerodynamics [PDF]
The unsteady aerodynamics of the 040A orbiter have been explored experimentally. The results substantiate earlier predictions of the unsteady flow boundaries for a 60 deg swept delta wing at zero yaw and with no controls deflected.
