A Driver Model for a Truck-Semitrailer Combination

To establish a driver model the equations of motion for a linearized truck-semitrailer were employed. Different decision layers were used to keep the vehicle at a given trajectory. Moreover the option was introduced to consider a truck based driver model in comparison to a driver model based on the truck-semitrailer combination. The driver models were tested using a complex M ulti-Bo dy-System-description of the vehicle when entering a curve manoeuvre.
