Lateral stability control is the key to ensure vehicle driving safety, especially when unmanned ground vehicles perform overtaking and yielding. To this end, this paper investigates finite-time lateral stabilization for an unmanned ground vehicle under velocity-varying motion. A lateral displacement model and a bicycle dynamics model are employed to build a dual closed-loop framework for lateral stabilization. Specifically, a trajectory tracking controller is proposed in the outer loop to calculate the expected yaw rate of the unmanned ground vehicle. In the inner loop, a yaw rate controller combined with a nonlinear extended state observer is developed to track the expected yaw rate under unsteady longitudinal velocity. Finite-time convergence of the overall system is ensured against a coupling influence from the unsteady longitudinal velocity. Experimental results display the superiority of the proposed strategy for the unmanned ground vehicle under velocity-varying motion.
