An anti-rollover apparatus and control method for heavy-duty vehicles with a pneumatic brake system includes an anti-yaw module, an anti-roll module, an electronic control unit (ECU) (10), a yaw velocity sensor (12), and a vehicle roll angle sensor (18). The ECU (10) controls solenoid valves (4, 9, 11, 19, and 24) to achieve braking of part of wheels to obtain anti-yaw torques and improve the yaw stability of the heavy-duty vehicles. The ECU (10) controls gas switch valves (21 and 22) to spray high-pressure gases recovered in brake chambers (1, 13, 16, and 26) out, anti-roll torques are obtained through the jet reactive force, and the roll stability of the heavy-duty vehicles is improved.

A method for a steering control of a vehicle to improve steering restoration when the vehicle escapes from a turn path via acceleration during high-speed turning. The vehicle steering control method includes determining whether or not a vehicle is rapidly accelerating in a high-speed turning state, and providing a restoration compensation torque in a vehicle steering restoration direction using a steering motor when it is determined that the vehicle is rapidly accelerating in the high-speed turning state. In particular, the restoration compensation torque is determined based on a relationship of a steering torque, a wheel speed, a number of revolutions of an engine, and a steering angular speed of the vehicle.

Disclosed is a method for automatically controlling brakes in a trailer vehicle having antilock control, wherein wheel rotational speeds are continuously monitored and evaluated at wheels having antilock control. According to the method, lateral acceleration and longitudinal acceleration of the trailer vehicle are determined. If a predefined, critical lateral acceleration is exceeded, an automatic braking process occurs. A control unit and trailer vehicle are also disclosed in connection with the inventive method.

The vehicle control system includes a braking force generating device (6, 22) configured to generate a braking force to shift a load of a vehicle to a side of front wheels thereof at an initial stage of a cornering, and a control device (31) configured to control the braking force generated by the braking force generating device. The control device calculates an additional deceleration (Gxadd) according to vehicle state information, calculates a lateral jerk equivalent value (Jy) according to the vehicle state information, and sets a lateral jerk correction coefficient (Kj) for weakening the additional deceleration. The control device corrects the additional deceleration by the lateral jerk correction coefficient (K), and calculates an additional braking force (Fbadd) to be generated by the braking force generating device according to the corrected additional deceleration.

An object of the invention is to realize an M+ control which is suitable to a driving scene without depending on pedal operation information of a driver. A vehicle motion control device according to the invention sets an absolute value of deceleration generated in the vehicle in a period in which the lateral motion of the vehicle is predicted to be changed from a state where the vehicle takes the lateral motion to a state where the vehicle does not take the lateral motion to be smaller than that generated in a period in which the lateral motion of the vehicle is predicted to be changed from a state the vehicle takes one of right and left lateral motions to a state where the vehicle takes the other lateral motion.

A method for determining the lean angle of a two-wheeler in which the axle load on at least one wheel is ascertained and the lean angle is calculated as a function of the axle load.

A method for regulating a vehicle-actual-deceleration in a vehicle with an ABS brake system includes detecting the vehicle-actual-deceleration; determining a target vehicle deceleration and detecting at least one actual wheel rotational behavior. The method further includes calculating actuation times for actuation of pressure control valves of the ABS brake system associated with the wheels of the first vehicle axle and the wheels of the further vehicle axle and determining correction actuation times if at least one of the respective calculated actuation times is less than a minimum actuation time associated with the respective pressure control valve. Calculation of each of the respective actuation times is carried out at least for all of a first number of pressure control valves with which wheels are associated whose rotational behavior follows the at least one actual wheel rotational behavior.

A method is provided for controlling a brake system (12) of a motor vehicle (2), having wheel brakes controllable for carrying out an anti-lock function (ABS) and for carrying out a roll stability control function (RSC). During cornering or in the event of a sudden evasive movement, the motor vehicle (2) is braked by actuation of the wheel brakes (26a, 26b, 28a, 28b) on account of a determined risk of tilting. With the start (t1) of an ABS control operation on the braking force (p.sub.B_KA) of a wheel brake (26b; 28b) on the inside of the bend on at least one motor vehicle axle (4; 8), the braking force (p.sub.B_KA) of at least one wheel brake (26a; 28a) on the outside of the bend is increased, and is lowered again with the end of the ABS control operation (t3).
