The lane change automation is one of fundamental problems of vehicle control. In the paper we report selected fragments of our research, focused on sensitivity investigations of the controller. This controller is based on a simple reference model of the vehicle lateral dynamics with steering servomechanism inertia effects neglected. Sensitivity studies are implemented by comparative numerical simulations, with the real object (medium capacity semi-autonomic truck) modeled as a 3D multi-body nonlinear system. Presented in the paper exemplary results demonstrate the effects of variations of the time constant parameter of the steering servomechanism. The results show the benefits of the vehicle’s automated control for the lane change.
