1. A method for controlling wheelslip in an automotive vehicle, each of at least one wheel for which control is desired controlled by a corresponding element of a command wheelslip vector, the method comprising:

  • determining a minimizing wheelslip vector minimizing the time rate of change of weighted vehicle kinetic energy and a resulting minimum time rate of change of weighted vehicle kinetic energy;

    determining a maximizing wheelslip vector maximizing the time rate of change of weighted vehicle kinetic energy and a resulting maximum time rate of change of weighted vehicle kinetic energy; and

    determining as the command wheelslip vector an interpolation of the minimizing wheelslip vector and the maximizing wheelslip vector based on a desired time rate of change of weighted vehicle kinetic energy.
