Abstract
Method for determining a friction to be adjusted in a power steering system or for modifying a hysteresis of a steering wheel torque applied to a steering wheel of the power steering system, the method including the following steps of: determining a speed, from a measurement of a speed of a part of the power steering system and/or a measurement of the steering wheel torque; determining the friction to be adjusted on the basis of a modified LuGre model, said modified LuGre model determining the friction to be adjusted as a function of a state of the system, a time derivative of the state being determined as a function of said state of the system, the speed, a first gain, and a coulomb friction, according to an equation of the form:
