description This paper proposed a novel direct yaw moment control (DYC) system to enhance vehicle stability and handling performance in various driving conditions and overcome the chattering problem of traditional sliding mode control. Accordingly, a DYC strategy is developed for eight-wheeled DDEVs by utilizing a super-twisting sliding mode (STSM) algorithm. Initially, a three-degrees-of-freedom model, nonlinear tire model, and motor model are established for vehicles. Subsequently, the reference yaw rate is obtained based on the reference model of the vehicle to serve as a control target. The DYC strategy is then established using the error between the actual yaw rate and the reference yaw rate as the input. Moreover, a traditional sliding mode (SM) controller is developed to enhance vehicle stability. A second-order SM controller is designed by incorporating a STSM control algorithm to address the chattering problem associated with traditional SM controllers. The algorithm adaptively adjusts the sliding surface and controls the gains based on the dynamic state of the vehicle. The effectiveness of the proposed control strategy is validated via hardware-in-the-loop simulations.
