A mathematical model describing the vehicle dynamics is derived and simulated in Matlab Simulink environment. Two control strategies were developed to stabilise the vehicle in the upright position. A robust Proportional- Integral-Derivative (PID) control strategy has been implemented and initially tested to measure the system performance, while the second control strategy is to use a hybrid fuzzy logic controller (FLC). The results are given on a comparative basis for the system performance in terms of disturbance rejection, control algorithms robustness as well as the control effort in terms of input torque. }, journal = {International Journal of Mechanical and Mechatronics Engineering}, volume = {6}, number = {10}, year = {2012}, pages = {2032 - 2039}, ee = {https://publications.waset.org/pdf/3753}, url = {https://publications.waset.org/vol/70}, bibsource = {https://publications.waset.org/}, issn = {eISSN: 1307-6892}, publisher = {World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology}, index = {Open Science Index 70, 2012}, }
