Abstract:
1. A method for controlling a vehicle movement, comprising: detecting at least one parameter, including a frequency of a lateral wind acting on a vehicle, and wherein the at least one parameter comprises a force of the lateral wind; applying one or more predetermined modes corresponding to the frequency of the lateral wind; operating a vehicle dynamics control system (VDCS) or an electronic power steering (EPS) apparatus corresponding to the one or more predetermined modes; determining if the force of the lateral wind is more than a first predetermined value; determining if the force of the lateral wind is more than a second predetermined value, which is more than the first predetermined value, in a case that the detected force of the lateral wind is more than the first predetermined value; and operating an impact mode which operates only the VDCS in a case where the detected force of the lateral wind is more than the second predetermined value.
