Abstract
A computer implemented method for controlling at least one driven and/or braked wheel of a heavy-duty vehicle includes configuring a default inverse tire model and a boost inverse tire model, where each inverse tire model represents a respective relationship between longitudinal wheel slip and longitudinal wheel force at the wheel, where the boost inverse tire model is associated with a higher maximum obtainable wheel slip value for the wheel compared to the default inverse tire model, obtaining a motion request indicative of a desired longitudinal force to be generated by the wheel, selecting the boost inverse tire model as active inverse tire model in response to detecting a boost signal and selecting the default inverse tire model as active inverse tire model otherwise, and controlling the at least one driven and/or braked wheel in dependence of the motion request and based on the active inverse tire model.
