In order to improve the endurance mileage and stability of an electric vehicle at the same time, a hierarchical coordinated control method of an in-wheel motor drive electric vehicle based on energy optimization is presented in this paper. The driving architecture of an in-wheel motor drive electric vehicle is developed, and a corresponding simulation model is established in CarSim software; then, the bicycle model of an electric vehicle is derived from vehicle dynamic equations. The energy-saving feasibility of an in-wheel motor drive electric vehicle is analyzed by a motor efficiency map, and on the basis of this, the hierarchical coordinated control method is proposed to achieve the simultaneous energy optimization control and stability control of the electric vehicle. The results show that the energy consumption is decreased by 32.41%, 45.92%, and 4.07% in different simulation manoeuver cases, and the vehicle stability can be ensured by the proposed control method.

Vehicle stability control should accurately interpret the driving intention and ensure that the actual state of the vehicle is as consistent as possible with the desired state. This paper proposes a vehicle stability control strategy, which is based on recognition of the driver’s turning intention, for a dual-motor drive electric vehicle. A hybrid model consisting of Gaussian mixture hidden Markov (GHMM) and Generalized Growing and Pruning RBF (GGAP-RBF) neural network is constructed to recognize the driver turning intention in real time. The turning urgency coefficient, which is computed on the basis of the recognition results, is used to establish a modified reference model for vehicle stability control. Then, the upper controller of the vehicle stability control system is constructed using the linear model predictive control theory. The minimum of the quadratic sum of the working load rate of the vehicle tire is taken as the optimization objective. The tire-road adhesion condition, performance of the motor and braking system, and state of the motor are taken as constraints. In addition, a lower controller is established for the vehicle stability control system, with the task of optimizing the allocation of additional yaw moment. Finally, vehicle tests were carried out by conducting double-lane change and single-lane change experiments on a platform for dual-motor drive electric vehicles by using the virtual controller of the A&D5435 hardware. The results show that the stability control system functions appropriately using this control strategy and effectively improves the stability of the vehicle.

According to the brake characteristics of in-wheel motor drive electric vehicles, and basing on threshold control method, we describe one kind of composite ABS control theory about electric motor ABS combined with hydraulic friction ABS, and establish a co-simulation vehicle model. The composite ABS control method is a control method that the electric motor ABS control works together with the hydraulic ABS control. Both of the two modes of ABS control logic were using logic threshold control method. The model of the in-wheel motor drive electric vehicle was established with AMESim, and the model of the composite ABS controller was built with Simulink. The control performance of composite ABS in different braking strength and different road friction coefficients is simulated. Co-simulation was carried out. Through analysis, a number of parameters curves were obtained. It proves that the composite ABS control method for in-wheel motor drive electric vehicles can effectively control the slip rate, and ensure braking stability.
