In a posture control apparatus controlling the posture of a vehicle in yawing direction by independently controlling brakes of the wheels, intervention of a first understeer control suppressing an understeering tendency is carried out when the understeerin...

In a posture control apparatus controlling the posture of a vehicle in yawing direction by independently controlling brakes of the wheels, intervention of a first oversteer control is carried out when the oversteering tendency of the vehicle is stronger th...

The dynamic control method for a four-wheeled vehicle comprises determining the available traction between the wheels and road surface and comparing with the instantaneous traction in use to establish the traction reserve. In addition to the forces operati...

A vehicle includes a continuously variable transmission whose gear ratio can be steplessly changed and a posture control apparatus that controls vehicle posture in a yaw direction during cornering by controlling output of the engine and the braking forces....

When understeer detected for a vehicle during cornering is rectified by performing control to reduce the engine output, the reduction in engine output is accompanied by a shifting down of the gear ratio of a continuously variable transmission from a gear r...

As a function of the speed of the vehicle and the angle of the steering, the method is used for expressing, in terms of stress, the input from the driver. If the actual measure of the stress does not correspond to the wishes of the driver, the active syste...

A method or apparatus for controlling a braking system in a vehicle, the vehicle including an inside front wheel and outside front wheel, whereby a determination is made of whether a drifting and/or an oversteering condition exists; and, if so, a predeterm...

The invention relates to a method for increasing driving stability in a vehicle, which brings about a yaw moment counteracting vehicle instability through a control intervention in the vehicle, wherein the extent of the control intervention depends on a co...
