Abstract [en]

In this article, we address the problem of motion planning and control at the limits of handling, under locally varying traction conditions. We propose a novel solution method where traction variations over the prediction horizon are represented by time-varying tire force constraints, derived from a predictive friction estimate. A \CFTOClong (\CFTOCshort) is solved in a receding horizon fashion, imposing these time-varying constraints. Furthermore, our method features an integrated sampling augmentation procedure that addresses the problems of infeasibility and sensitivity to local minima that arise at abrupt constraint alterations, for example, due to sudden friction changes. We validate the proposed algorithm on a Volvo FH16 heavy-duty vehicle, in a range of critical scenarios. Experimental results indicate that traction adaptive motion planning and control improves the vehicle's capacity to avoid accidents, both when adapting to low local traction, by ensuring dynamic feasibility of the planned motion, and when adapting to high local traction, by realizing high traction utilization.
