Abstract

A process is provided for determining a travel-situation-dependent steering angle, in which a specification of a characteristic value for the transverse motion of the vehicle is given, the actual value of the yaw angular velocity of the vehicle is evaluated, and a criterion is derived as a function of the actual value of the yaw angular velocity as well as the predetermined characteristic value. As a function of the criterion, an influencing of the travel behavior of the vehicle takes place by an intervention in the vehicle steering. For the derivation of the criterion, additionally the side slip angle, the steering angle and the vehicle velocity are evaluated, and, for the derivation of the criterion, the lateral forces at the vehicle wheels are taken into consideration.
