Vehicle behavior control apparatus
View Patent ↗An engine driving force is calculated. A first-lag process is executed based upon the engine driving force to calculate an engaging torque between front and rear shafts. The resultant is output to a transfer clutch drive unit. A braking force according to a change of a driving force, which is decreased with the lapse of time based upon a temporal change of the engine driving force, is calculated by executing a first-order lead process. An acceleration sensitive target yaw moment based upon the braking force according to the change of the driving force is calculated, and a steering sensitive target yaw moment based upon a steering angle velocity is calculated by executing the first-order lead process. A braking force to be added to an inner wheel on a turn is calculated based upon these target yaw moment. The resultant is output to a brake drive unit.
1. A vehicle behavior control apparatus comprising:
a longitudinal driving force distribution control unit configured to control a driving force distribution between front wheels and rear wheels according to a vehicle motion state; and
a braking force control unit configured to add a braking force to a wheel that is set according to a driving state of the vehicle, wherein
the control of the driving force distribution by the longitudinal driving force distribution control unit is executed later than the addition of the braking force by the braking force control unit.
