This article addresses the problem of road departure prevention using integrated brake control. The scenario considered is when a high-speed vehicle leaves the highway on a curve and enters the shoulder or another lane, owing to excessive speed or a reduction in the friction of the road due to adverse weather conditions. In such a scenario, the vehicle speed is too high for the available tyre–road friction and road departure is inevitable; however, its effect can be minimized with an optimal braking strategy. To achieve online implementation, the task is formulated as a receding horizon optimization problem and solved in a linear model predictive control (MPC) framework. In this formulation, a nonlinear tyre model is adopted in order to work properly at the friction limits. The optimization results are close to those obtained previously using a particle model optimization, parabolic path reference (PPR), coupled to a control algorithm, the modified Hamiltonian algorithm (MHA), specifically designed to operate at the vehicle friction limits. This shows that the MPC formulation may be equally effective for vehicle control at the friction limits. The major difference here, compared with the earlier PPR/MHA control formulation, is that the proposed MPC strategy directly generates an optimal brake sequence, while PPR provides an optimal reference first, then MHA responds to the reference to give closed-loop actuator control. The presented MPC approach has the potential for use in future vehicle systems as part of the overall active safety control to improve overall vehicle agility and safety.
