To investigate the effects of electric power assisted steering (EPAS) on a vehicle's steering performance, this paper explicitly proposes several indices, such as steering sensitivity and road feel, for evaluation of steering performance. Then a single-track car model with lateral and yaw movement is considered and an EPAS model is built. The mathematical expressions for the steering performance indices are deduced and a stability criterion is established by integrated analysis of the vehicle's dynamics and the EPAS dynamics. By means of frequency domain analysis, the effect of each parameter of EPAS on steering performance indices is analysed. Finally, an optimizing model used to improve these steering indices is put forward and the result is given.
