2. Power steering - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_steering

   Power steering is a system for reducing a driver's effort to turn a steering wheel of a motor vehicle, by using a power source to assist steering. [1]Hydraulic or electric actuators add controlled energy to the steering mechanism, so the driver can provide less effort to turn the steered wheels when driving at typical speeds, and considerably reduce the physical effort necessary to turn the ...

3. Steer-by-wire - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steer-by-wire

   The Infiniti Q50 was the first production road-vehicle without a traditional steering column, though one was still equipped as a backup. [2] Steer-by-wire without the use of a steering column was first offered in a production car with the Infiniti Q50 in 2013. [4] The system has a backup steering column separated from the steering wheel with a ...

4. Active steering - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_steering

   Active steering describes a type of power electric variable gear ratio power steering technology introduced by BMW in 2003 first appearing on the redesigned 5 Series which varies the degree that the wheels turn in response to the steering wheel. At lower speeds, this technology reduces the amount that the steering wheel must be turned ...

5. Electronic control unit - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_control_unit

   Electric power steering control unit (PSCU) – Generally this will be integrated into the EPS power pack. Human–machine interface (HMI) Powertrain control module (PCM) – Sometimes the functions of the engine control unit and transmission control module (TCM) are combined into a single unit called the Powertrain Control Module. Seat control ...

7. Hybrid vehicle drivetrain - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hybrid_vehicle_drivetrain

   Electrical vehicles have a long history combining internal combustion and electrical transmission – as in a diesel–electric power-train – although they have mostly been used for rail locomotives. A diesel–electric powertrain fails the strict definition of hybrid because the electric drive transmission directly replaces the mechanical ...

8. Steering - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steering

   A Hydraulic Power Steering (HPS) uses hydraulic pressure supplied by an engine-driven pump to assist the motion of turning the steering wheel. Electric Power Steering (EPS) is more efficient than hydraulic power-steering, since the electric power-steering motor only needs to provide assistance when the steering wheel is turned, whereas the ...

9. Dynamic steering response - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_steering_response

   After calculating necessary steering corrections, the control unit instructs the electric motor to apply the torque needed to the vehicle's hydraulic steering gear. [5] For the motor's control, it picks up the data at 2000 times a second (as in Volvo truck FM Series) based on the input from the driver, and from the on-board sensors.
