This book integrates essential knowledge of car vehicle dynamics and control theory with NI LabVIEW software product application, resulting in a practical yet highly technical guide for designing advanced vehicle dynamics controllers. Presenting a clear overview of fundamental vehicle dynamics and vehicle system mathematical models, the book covers the design of model based classical PID, adaptive, quadratic optimal and inverse dynamics-based controllers of linear and non-linear systems. It details Kalman-Bucy filtering, and its practical applications, alongside the basic kinematics and dynamics of a vehicle in planar motion, deriving equations of wheel dynamics and tire forces in forms appropriate for control design. The book also discusses lateral vehicle dynamics and vehicle vertical dynamics, high level controllers and vehicle sensor signal estimation, alongside a clear explanation of basic control principles for regenerative braking in both electric and hybrid vehicles, and torque vectoring systems. LabVIEW fundamentals are provided and used to design and implement controller examples in the book. The book will be of interest to engineering students, automotive engineering students and automotive engineers and researchers.
