Abstract

This chapter is devoted to the application of sliding mode observers to estimate the unknown inputs of the road. Vehicle motion simulation accuracy, such as in accident reconstruction or vehicle controllability analysis on real roads, can be obtained only if valid road profile and tire-road friction models are available. Regarding road profiles, a new method based on Sliding Mode Observers has been developed and is compared to two inertial methods. Experimental results are shown and discussed to evaluate the robustness and the quality of the proposed approach.
