Traction Control System of Electric Vehicle with 4 In-Wheel Motors using Lyapunov Stability Analysis Algorithm 2021-01-0122

A TCS strategy of electric vehicle with 4 in-wheel motors is proposed in this paper. The control method consists of three parts: target slip rate calculation, target torque calculation and coordination control. By using Lyapunov stability analysis algorithm, the target slip rate boundary which makes the system stable is obtained. The target torque of each wheel is calculated by PI controller. According to the engineering experience, the TCS coordinated control strategy under split friction coefficient (split-μ) road, and friction coefficient jump(μ jump) road is proposed. The test results show that this strategy can improve the acceleration comfort and yaw stability of vehicles on uniform low friction coefficient (low μ) , split-μ and μ jump road.
