Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Electrification and intelligence are currently important development directions in the automotive industry. The integrated optimization of chassis control technology and autonomous driving technology for electric vehicles is of great significance. The improvement of comprehensive performance requires advanced vehicle chassis systems to have the ability to be precise, reliable, and responsive. The advanced control and coordination optimization of distributed drive systems, SBW/BBW systems, and active suspension systems all have the potential to improve chassis dynamic control performance. Among them, the analysis, modeling, control, and optimal design of vehicle dynamic systems involve symmetric or asymmetric problems. Many key technologies of intelligent vehicles also urgently need to be developed more thoroughly. Environment perception, behavioral decision making, motion planning technology, and its effective integration with vehicle chassis control technology for intelligent driving scenarios are all current research hotspots in the automotive industry.

This Special Issue, therefore, invites all original and reviewed papers covering the challenging aspects of the development of electric vehicles and intelligent vehicles, including, but not limited to, the following topics:

  • Symmetrical/Asymmetrical design of chassis-by-wire systems;
  • Dynamic modeling and parameter identification of chassis systems;
  • Vehicle state estimation methods for behavioral decision making or motion control;
  • Advanced control and comprehensive performance optimization of chassis systems;
  • Environmental perception and decision planning technology for complex scenarios;
  • High-performance trajectory tracking control technology;
  • Drive efficiency and functional safety of intelligent electric vehicles;
  • Symmetry/Asymmetry analysis of vehicle dynamic control systems.
