Provided is a steering assist apparatus (10) for a vehicle, including a transmission device (22) configured to transmit a force and a displacement relating to steering between a steering wheel (18) and steered wheels (20L, 20R), a power steering device (12) configured to apply an assist torque to the transmission device, and a control device (50). When assuming the steering wheel, the transmission device, the power steering device, and the steered wheels as a steering system, the control device is configured to calculate, based on a product of a steering angular velocity and a derivative of the steering angular velocity, a product of the steering angular velocity and a steering torque, and a product of a steering angle and a derivative of the steering torque, a change rate (dDE) of an energy of the steering system, and control the assist torque based on the change rate of the energy of the steering system. |
