A model-based genetic algorithm predictor is developed to estimate the potential for vehicular rollover. The model is based on a 1997 Jeep Cherokee Sports Utility Vehicle (SUV) and is discretized at 100 Hz. Preliminary simulation results indicate rollover prediction of 400 ms in advance of the actual event. Such advance prediction would then allow the use of active anti-roll algorithms and systems such as differential braking or active suspension control.
