Popis: When the vehicle is traveling at high speed and suddenly steers, a rollover phenomenon may occur. The main cause of this phenomenon is the appearance of a centrifugal force, which is proportional to the mass and the square of the velocity. In order to limit this situation, the method of using the hydraulic stabilizer bar (active stabilizer bar) has been proposed. The performance of the hydraulic stabilizer bar is highly dependent on the control method, which has been designed to ensure the stabilizer bar’s operation. Previous research often only used simple dynamics models and conventional linear control methods. Therefore, the performance of the stabilizer bar is not guaranteed. At the same time, the factors affecting the movement of a vehicle are not mentioned. This will cause inaccuracies. This research used a spatial dynamics model combined with a non-linear double-track dynamics model, which fully describes the effects of vehicle oscillations. Besides, the two-input Fuzzy control method is also proposed. This is a completely novel model, and it is not like the previous models that have been used to study the stabilizer bar. The results of this research show that if the vehicle uses the hydraulic stabilizer bar controlled by a two-input Fuzzy controller, the values of the roll angle and roll index have been reduced. As a result, stability and safety have been significantly improved. The achievements of this research will be the basis for the development of other intelligent control methods in the future.
