Abstract

In this paper, a numerical modelling method is presented and a sliding mode controller is designed for the heavy-duty truck. Based on the off-line data, a numerical model is established which is a simpler third-order system compared to the traditional longitudinal dynamic model in which the engine model is needed to be considered. And then a sliding mode controller with excellent velocity tracking performance is designed. To verify tracking performances, simulations based on a typical heavy-duty truck in Trucksim are implemented and results conclude that the new model and control strategy are very effective.
