To resolve the urban transportation challenges like congestion,
parking, fuel consumption, and pollution, narrow urban vehicles
which are small in footprint and light in their gross weight are
proposed. Apart from the narrow cabin design, these vehicles are
featured by their active tilting system, which automatically tilts
the cabin like a motorcycle during the cornering for comfort and
safety improvements. Such vehicles have been manufactured and
utilized in city commuter programs. However, there is no book that
systematically discusses the mechanism, dynamics, and control of
narrow tilting vehicles (NTVs). In this book, motivations for
building NTVs and various tilting mechanisms designs are reviewed,
followed by the study of their dynamics. Finally, control
algorithms designed to fully utilize the potential of tilting
mechanisms in narrow vehicles are discussed. Special attention is
paid to an efficient use of the control energy for rollover
mitigation, which greatly enhance the stability of NTVs with
optimized operational costs.
