Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a method for controlling a steering assist system (150) of a vehicle (100). A fluid flow supplied by a fluid pump (500) is controlled to generate a steering assist force to wheels (102) of a vehicle (100) based on a signal indicative of a road characteristic of a road segment.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to a method for controlling a steering assistance system of a vehicle. The present disclosure also relates to a corresponding steering assistance system. Although the methods and systems will be described primarily with respect to heavy duty vehicles (ie, trucks), they are also applicable to other types of vehicles that use fluid pumps to generate steering assist force. Background technique [0002] Steering systems in vehicles are constantly evolving to meet demands from the market, primarily to improve the steering feel for the operator in control of the vehicle. The steering system usually forms part of a steering assistance system which is arranged to generate a steering force for steering assistance during a cornering maneuver. [0003] Conventional steering assist systems for eg heavy vehicles use a fluid pump connected to the steering system (eg steering gear) to generate steering force. Steering assistance syst...
