  1. Design and Prototype Build of the Interfaces of a Steer-By-Wire Assembly Javier Angulo Alan Benedict, Team Leader Amber Russell, Team Manager Kurush Savabi Dr. Sohel Anwar, Faculty Advisor & Sponsor Dr. Hazim El-Mounayri, Course Instructor

  2. Overview • Purpose & Objective • Requirements & Targets • Concept Generation & Evaluation • Product Generation & Evaluation • Conclusions & Recommendations

  3. Introduction Overall Purpose: Create a steer-by-wire system parallel to that of an automobile for use in laboratory

  4. Driver Interface Sub-System Microcontroller Sub-System Rack-and-Pinion Sub-System Introduction(continued) Overall Steer-By-Wire System

  5. Objectives of Design Objectives: • Design of an interface between a standard automotive rack-and-pinion steering assembly and electric motors. • Design of an interface between the same rack-and-pinion steering assembly and angle position sensors • Design of a stand to support the entire system and provide reaction forces to rack

  6. Requirements and Targets • Functionality and safety • Benchmark Visteon-GM Sequel

  7. Requirements and Targets(continued)

  8. Concept Development & Evaluation Development Process • Functional Decomposition • Function Concept-Mapping Evaluation Process • Feasibility Testing • Go/No-Go Screening • Decision Matrices • Failure Mode Effects Analysis (FMEA)

  9. Final Concept • Motor to Rack-and-Pinion Interface • Gear Train • Motor to Motor Interface • Gear Train • Sensor to Sensor Interface • Stackable Sensors / Shaft • Sensor to Rack and Pinion Interface • Direct Shaft • Metal Stand Motor Controllers Position Sensors Motor Motor Stacked / Shaft Rack Pinion 1 Pinion 2 Gear Train

  10. Product Generation & Evaluation Motors Requirements • Torque of 52 Nm at 67 rpm • Torque of 20.8 Nm at 133 rpm • Input voltage of <60 VDC Selected Motor Specifications • Torque of 52 Nm at 67 rpm • Torque of 20.8 Nm at 127.4 rpm • Input voltage of 75 VDC

  11. Product Generation & Evaluation Motor Interfaces • Enables redundancy • Allows for maintenance

  12. Product Generation & Evaluation Stand Requirements Max deflection of 12.7mm Max stress of 450MPa Stand Analysis Results Max deflection of 1.83E-4mm Max stress of 89.1MPa (Dynamic) FOS 3 to 5 (267.3MPa to 445.5MPa)

  13. Product Generation & Evaluation Springs • Spring Requirements of 102 kN/m • Selected Spring Specifications of 83 kN/m • Force of 6876 N (to simulate dynamic loading) • Maximum Stress = 104.6 MPa • Yield Strength of Plate = 250 MPa

  14. Product Generation & Evaluation Sensors Hollow-angle sensors • Ease of interface • Zero backlash • Lack of availability • Lower accuracy • Requires less space Conventional Potentiometers • Meet accuracy requirement • Readily available • Cost efficient • Requires gear train interface (backlash)
