Abstract
This paper reviews and expands previously published driver steering control models. The driver model is structured to control vehicle heading angle and lane position. Field test data are used to validate model structure. The closed-loop stability of the driver/vehicle system is analyzed using a two degree of freedom vehicle dynamics approximation. This analysis is used to develop constraints among the various driver model parameters and their dependence on vehicle characteristics. Driver/vehicle model approximations are also used to explore the effects of driver behavior on steering performance.
