1. A control apparatus for controlling stopping of a vehicle, comprising:
- a speed detector that detects a speed of a vehicle; and
a control unit that controls an automatic stop of the vehicle,wherein the control unit comprisesautomatic stop means for stopping the vehicle automatically when a predetermined operating condition of the vehicle is met;
speed acquiring means for acquiring an actual speed of the vehicle from detected results of the speed detector;
target setting means for setting a target acceleration of the vehicle depending on the actual speed when the vehicle is stopped automatically by the automatic stop means; and
control means for controlling an actual acceleration of the vehicle at the target acceleration,wherein the target setting means has a vehicle model to which different target acceleration so patterns depending on different travels speeds of the vehicle are given and from which travel speeds and accelerations are outputted depending on the inputted target acceleration patterns, andthe target acceleration is adapted based on both the travel speeds and the accelerations outputted from the vehicle model.

Abstract
A control apparatus is provided to control the stopping of a vehicle. The control apparatus comprises a speed detector that detects a speed of a vehicle, speed acquiring means, target setting means, and control means. The speed acquiring means acquires an actual speed of the vehicle from detected results of the speed detector. The target setting means sets a target acceleration of the vehicle depending on the actual speed when the vehicle is stopped automatically. The control means controls an actual acceleration of the vehicle at the target acceleration.

2. A control apparatus for controlling stopping of a vehicle, comprising:
-
a speed detector that detects a speed of a vehicle; and a controller that controls an automatic stop of the vehicle and that is cooperatively operable with the speed detector, wherein the controller is configured to; cause the vehicle to stop automatically when a predetermined operating condition of the vehicle is met; acquire an actual speed of the vehicle from detected results of the speed detector; set a target acceleration of the vehicle depending on the actual speed when the vehicle is caused to be stopped automatically, the target acceleration being set so that an absolute value of the target acceleration decreases as the actual speed of the vehicle indicated by the speed detector decreases; detect an acceleration of a vehicle; acquire an actual acceleration of the vehicle from the detected acceleration; determine, based on the actual acceleration and the actual speed, whether or not control of the actual acceleration is to be started, a determination is to start control of the actual acceleration of the vehicle to the target acceleration when an absolute value of the actual speed is made smaller as an absolute value of the actual acceleration becomes smaller; and control the actual acceleration of the vehicle to the target acceleration instead of to a requested acceleration, when the determination is to start control of the actual acceleration of the vehicle.
