Abstract

The well established simulations of the non-linear articulated vehicle is employed as the system to be directed by a control system which has certain characteristics of the driver. A survey of previous "driver" models has led to the proposal that the control system should be precognitive with a time delay. The model chosen looks ahead of the vehicle by a certain distance and compasses the target position with the position that the vehicle attain if no correction is applied to the steering.
