As can be seen from fig. 1 to 12, the front-wheel conventional steering and rear-wheel differential steering model curves are substantially identical to the four-wheel steering model curves, which illustrates that the method can well realize four-wheel steering.
As is clear from fig. 1, 5 and 9, the yaw rate steady value increases with an increase in vehicle speed, and is stabilized between 3.3rad/s and 3.8 rad/s. Meanwhile, as can be seen from fig. 1, the front-wheel conventional steering and the rear-wheel differential steering at a low speed are smoother than the yaw rate stabilizing values of the four-wheel steering model.

The centroid slip angle stable value at low speed is 0.058rad; the steady value of the centroid slip angle at medium speed is-0.03 rad; the centroid slip angle stability value at high speed is-0.078 rad. Meanwhile, as can be seen from fig. 2, the conventional steering of the front wheels and the differential steering of the rear wheels at low speed are more stable than the steady value of the centroid side deflection angle of the four-wheel steering model.
As can be seen from fig. 3, 7 and 11, the x and y position curves of the front and rear differential steering models coincide with the x and y position curves of the four-wheel steering models, and the maximum values of the x and y positions increase with an increase in vehicle speed.
As can be seen from fig. 4, 8 and 12, the torque value becomes smaller and stabilizes within a certain range as the vehicle speed increases.
