This paper presents a method of simultaneous estimation of tire pressure and tire-road friction. A sliding-mode scheme is designed to identify the system state and the parameter variation of a torsional tire system, which greatly depend on the change in tire pressure. Then, the recursive least-squares method with a forgetting facto is used to estimate the parameter variations of the tire system and the tire-road friction force without a friction model using the information retrieved from the equivalent input for sliding motion. A simulation study is performed to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
