The research for the evolutionof new technologies, vehicle safety regulations and specifications and the market requirementshas given this progress a greater push. The passenger cars these days are equipped with amplecollection of active safety systems such as Anti-lock Braking Systems (ABS), Electronic StabilityProgram (ESP), Active Front Steering (AFS) and many more. The amalgamation of these activesafety systems in the vehicle chassis allows the vehicle to accomplish the desired stability.Both academia and industry understood the requirement of more research in the field of vehicleindustry. This leads to the comprehensive enhancement in the field of research and developmentwith respect to integrated chassis control (ICC). The new research delivered some remarkable advantagesto this industry, such as cost reduction of the complete system, multi-objective performancegrowth, hardware entanglement, fault-tolerant capability and system plausibility.Despite the huge diversity in research of integrated chassis, there are certain adaptive design methodswhich can be used to enhance the ICC performance. This dissertation intends to provide amethodology to fully exploit the nonlinear dynamics of the vehicle concerning the forces in betweentire and road surface and to discuss the integration of AFS and ESP. It establishes a noveladaptive control approach in order to attain asymptotic tracking for switched affine vehicle modelswith parameter uncertainties and disturbances acting on the model. This, therefore, will helpto attain the desired performance. Further, comparisonwith strategies that merely exploits the linearregion of the vehicle dynamics are discussed, and performance improvements of the proposedmethodology are assessed. Finally, analytically the endurance of the prospective control strategyis proven and simulations are conducted to validate the theoretical analysis.
