Abstract
Recently, Direct Yaw-moment Control (DYC) system has become a standard active safety device in automobile market. DYC activates to stabilize vehicle motion to prevent the vehicle from falling into the unstable driving situation like spin or plow. However, it has not been researched on the effectiveness of DYC in real-world situations, including human driver's behavior. So, we evaluate the effect of DYC using a driving simulator, and including human driver in the closed-loop. From the results of the experiment of obstacle avoidance in low friction road, it is concluded that the DYC system is effective to stabilize the vehicle on low friction road.
