Abstract

A method in which a continuous estimation of the intermediate friction rate is carried out, allowing the integration of the method into a general friction compensation method so as to continuously improve the feel on the steering wheel, particularly for speeds below a determined threshold. Also, a method for friction compensation in an electrical power steering system, characterised in that the compensation method takes into account a continuous estimation of the intermediate friction rate obtained by the estimation method.
