Abstract:

Distributed drive electric vehicles can independently and accurately control the driving torque of each wheel to achieve acceleration slip regulation control. However, a single traction control strategy often fails to meet the requirements of diverse and complex driving conditions and cannot ensure optimal overall driving performance. To address this limitation, this study proposed a multi-mode traction control strategy that is responsive, precise, and adaptable to various complex driving scenarios. Firstly, to meet performance requirements under varying driving conditions, a set of driving modes and mode-switching strategies was developed based on a seven-degree-of-freedom distributed drive vehicle model. Secondly, using the adhesion characteristic curves of six standard road surfaces derived from the Burckhardt tire model, an optimized linear interpolation algorithm was applied to propose a road surface recognition fusion algorithm. This algorithm computes the optimal slip ratio, which serves as the control target for a nonlinearly tuned PID controller designed to manage power distribution and mode switching. Finally, a CarSim vehicle model and an acceleration slip regulation control model in Matlab/Simulink were established and co-simulation verification was conducted on low adhesion road, joint road, bisectional road, low adhesion slope, and bisectional slope. Simulation results show that the road surface recognition strategy can accurately identify the adhesion coefficient of the road, the acceleration slip regulation control strategy can quickly respond and accurately switch between different modes under different working conditions, balancing dynamics performance and stability performance, and effectively improve acceleration slip regulation performance.
