 DOT HS 812 576

Functional Safety Assessment Of a Generic Electric Power Steering System With Active Steering and Four-Wheel Steering Features

This report describes the research effort to assess the functional safety of electric power steering (EPS) systems. This study also considers the additional active steering and four-wheel steering features, which are incorporated into some EPS systems.

 DOT HS 812 575

Functional Safety Assessment of an Automated Lane Centering System

This report describes the research effort to assess the functional safety of a generic automated lane centering (ALC) system,. a key technology that supports vehicle automation by providing continuous lateral control to keep the vehicle Within the travel lane.

 DOT HS 812 573

Functional Safety Assessment of a Generic, Conventional, Hydraulic Braking System With Antilock Brakes, Traction Control, and Electronic Stability Control

This report describes the research effort to assess the functional safety of foundational braking systems, specifically focusing on conventional hydraulic braking systems that includes antilock brakes, traction control and electronic stability control, which are typically included in current generation vehicles.

 DOT HS 812 574

Functional Safety Assessment Of a Generic Automated Lane Centering System and Related Foundational Vehicle Systems

This report describes research to assess the functional safety of a generic automated lane centering (ALC) system and three related foundational systems --electric power steering (EPS), steer-by-wire (SbW), and conventional hydraulic braking (CHB). ALC systems are a key technology that supports vehicle automation by providing continuous lateral control to keep the vehicle within the travel lane.
