A Traction Control Strategy with an Efficiency Model in a Distributed Driving Electric Vehicle

الملخص EN

Both active safety and fuel economy are important issues for vehicles.

This paper focuses on a traction control strategy with an efficiency model in a distributed driving electric vehicle.

In emergency situation, a sliding mode control algorithm was employed to achieve antislip control through keeping the wheels’ slip ratios below 20%.

For general longitudinal driving cases, an efficiency model aiming at improving the fuel economy was built through an offline optimization stream within the two-dimensional design space composed of the acceleration pedal signal and the vehicle speed.

The sliding mode control strategy for the joint roads and the efficiency model for the typical drive cycles were simulated.

Simulation results show that the proposed driving control approach has the potential to apply to different road surfaces.

It keeps the wheels’ slip ratios within the stable zone and improves the fuel economy on the premise of tracking the driver’s intention.
