As a key component of the current automotive industry and global intelligence, intelligent vehicles play a crucial role in the entire intelligent system. To explore the key technologies for achieving autonomous driving in intelligent vehicles, researches on the lateral and longitudinal control methods of vehicles have been conducted. By utilizing the vehicle’s kinematic, dynamic models, and tire models, the lateral and longitudinal control of intelligent vehicles is analyzed. A decoupling strategy is adopted to simplify control complexity, ensuring that the vehicle travels safely along the predetermined path. To guarantee the stability of the vehicle in motion, research on longitudinal control is strengthened to optimize the management of vehicle speed. The study of vehicle coupling control aims to overcome the problems caused by vehicle coupling effects, optimizing the precision of lateral and longitudinal control. The advantages and disadvantages of various related control algorithms are summarized, and future development directions for the lateral and longitudinal control of intelligent vehicles are proposed, including deepening the research on lateral control algorithms to enhance safety, optimizing longitudinal control to ensure motion stability, and improving the precision of coupling control to enhance overall control effectiveness.

This study aims to identify the optimal strategy for vehicle platform architecture. It elucidates the concept of platform architecture, defines the critical dimension L114, and presents a platform expansion dimension chain based on L114 for a domestic automotive manufacturer. The specific strategies for the passenger compartment structure of the platform architecture are also analyzed. Comparative analysis of platform universalization rates between L113 and L114 consistent dimensions reveals a similarity in the rates. However, when integrated with whole vehicle safety collision strategy, the L114 consistent dimension strategy emerges as superior. This strategy allows platform models to meet the collision strategy of high models, thereby fulfilling side impact requirements for other models simultaneously, significantly reducing platform development costs.

In order to improve the accuracy of the over-expansion cycle engine air charge model, improve engine performance and improve the dynamic condition mixture control of the vehicle, it is necessary to accurately control the phase of the engine’s intake valve. In this paper, the influence of the Intake Valve Open(IVO) timing and Intake Valve Close(IVC) timing on air charge model is analyzed, the influence of valve phase deviation on the accuracy of the air charge model is analyzed theoretically, and the influence of different valve phase deviations on the accuracy of the air charge model is verified by experiments, in order to meet the accuracy requirements of the air charge model deviation of no more than ±5%, the intake valve phase deviation needs to be controlled within the range of ±1.5 °CA. The influence of the intake phase deviation on the air charge model is corrected by controlling the phase accuracy of the assembly machinery and adding the Electronic Control Unit(ECU) phase deviation adaptive model, and the effect of phase deviation control is verified by experiments.
