Abstract
A method of controlling a steering operation of a vehicle comprising a first steerable wheel and a second steerable wheel mechanically connected to each other. Is provided. The method includes determining a steering angle for operating the vehicle during a turning maneuver, determining, during the turning maneuver, a first current steering angle indicative of a current steering angle of the first steerable wheel, and a second current steering angle indicative of a current steering angle of the second steerable wheel, determining an offset steering angle, the offset steering angle being a difference between the first current steering angle and the second current steering angle, applying a first steering torque on the first steerable wheel, the first steering torque being based on a difference between the requested steering angle and the first current steering angle, and applying a second steering torque on the second steerable wheel, the second steering torque being based on the offset steering angle and a difference between the requested steering angle and the second current steering angle.
