Algorithmic Maintenance of a Complex of Mechatronic Modules and Running Gear of an Automobile

An electro-hydraulic servo system makes the basis for a mechatronic locomotion module (LM) and for a complex comprising an LM and an undercarriage of a vehicle. The servo system of the wheel module/LM complex is a combination of the information and power channels of the electro-hydraulic wheel drive within the steering system. A combination of the servo systems makes up a complex of servo systems of the steering system of the multi axis wheel mover of the vehicle.

Theoretical and experimental studies of the functioning all-wheel steering were aimed on substantiation the rational algorithmic maintenance of the automatic control system. The results of the study allowed formulating the basic principles of designing and calculating the functionality algorithms for the steering system of the complex of mechatronic modules of the multi-axis vehicle.

A comparative analysis and evaluation of the impact of different algorithms of the control system on the parameters of turning of the vehicle with all steered wheels are presented. The paper contains an analytical description of these algorithms.
