In recent years, the demand for safer vehicles has increased. Active front steering (AFS) is an effective technique to stabilize motion control after the detection of dangerous motion of a vehicle, such as a slip. However, if AFS intervenes excessively during the steering process, it becomes difficult to prevent interference between driver steering and automatic steering by AFS. Therefore, at present, vehicles are rarely equipped with AFS. This paper proposes a steering torque control method based on reaction torque estimation and variable damping control for use in a human-friendly AFS system and discusses how an experimental device was used to verify the effectiveness of this control method.
