　　Abstract. In this talk, the modelling and control of modern steer-by-wire systems in road vehicles are discussed. It is seen that, from the steering motor to the steered front wheel in a road vehicle, a second-order differential equation can be developed to model the steering dynamics with uncertain dynamics. A sliding mode controller can then be designed to drive the steered front wheel angle to asymptotically converge to the reference angle provided by the hand-wheel. Experimental results are presented in support of the proposed modelling and control strategies.
