English abstract:
We investigate the stability of a controlled understeering vehicle
along a steady-state cornering motion. To control the trajectory of
the vehicle, the human driver is assumed to
apply a constant front steering angle and a varying driving torque, which
depends on the deviation of a point straight forward of the car at a
fixed distance LP from a reference circle. By varying the parameters
of this feedback control we study the range of stable driving
conditions and the system's dynamics after loss of stability.
