1. A method for generating a yaw moment for controlling driving dynamics of a vehicle, comprising:
determining a target yaw moment for the vehicle from a target yaw rate defined by a predefined steering angle, wherein the target yaw moment is used to maintain the predefined steering angle for the vehicle at a current speed;
subdividing the target yaw moment into (i) a steering yaw moment associated with a steering of the vehicle, (ii) a rolling yaw moment, and (iii) a drive yaw moment, wherein the rolling yaw moment comprises a sum of individual rolling yaw moments that can be set at each wheel on the vehicle; and
subdividing the rolling yaw moment into individual rolling yaw moments for individual wheels of the vehicle, wherein the individual rolling yaw moments for each wheel are determined from activation of dampers for the wheels,
and wherein the rolling yaw moment is dynamically adjusted to control the driving dynamics of the vehicle.
