Modeling extreme loads acting on steering components using driving events
Artikel i vetenskaplig tidskrift, 2015
Forces during steering events, such as curves and maneuvers, cause large stresses on steering components. In this paper, we formulate a model for the lateral loads causing fatigue damage of the steering components. Steering events are identified using a Hidden Markov model on the CAN (Controller Area Network) bus data. The CAN data is available on all vehicles, thus the model is applicable across many types of vehicles. To identify the events, the observation from CAN data is modeled by a multivariate generalized Laplace (GAL) distribution. An explicit formula for the expected fatigue damage is given. Results are validated using measured lateral acceleration.
