Book A Real time Hybrid Vehicle Control Strategy and Testing Platform

Download or read book A Real time Hybrid Vehicle Control Strategy and Testing Platform written by Jeremy Wise and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this paper, the need to develop a control strategy and test apparatus for nextgeneration hybrid vehicles was realized. The complexity of today's and future hybridvehicles necessitates the need for an equally advanced method of control that can extractthe optimal fuel economy from the system as a whole. A review of existing hybrid vehicle control strategies was performed. Overall, muchresearch has been done on the optimization of series and parallel type vehicles, butvirtually no information was found on the optimal use of advanced powersplit drivetrains. However, the control strategy concepts explored in the literature are useful, and can beextended to complex architectures like the General Motors Two-Mode design. Theequivalent consumption minimization strategy (ECMS) method developed by Rizzoni etal at the Ohio State University has proven to be a well developed control strategy that hasseen much progress over the last decade. Although it has been only demonstrated onparallel-type vehicles, it was chosen as the basis for the control strategy methodology. An in-depth analysis on the Two-Mode transmission operation was performed. Thefundamental equations for each of its range states were derived for future use indeveloping a plant model, and for use in control strategy development. The torque andspeed capabilities of each of its modes and gears were analysed. A detailed plant model was created to form a virtual test bed for control strategy development purposes. The models use empirical data provided by manufactures, which ensures a reasonable level of accuracy in portraying component constraints and efficiencies. Building on the ECMS, a similar hybrid vehicle control strategy was developed forTwo-Mode transmission based vehicles. It was modified to handle two degrees offreedom as required by the system. Its objective is to constantly minimize the totalequivalent power use in the system which is defined as the sum of the chemical power inthe fuel and the power used by the battery multiplied by an equivalency factor. Overall, the control strategy provides a strong basis for the optimal control of nextgenerationhybrid vehicles incorporating powersplit transmissions. It is suggested thatfurther research be explored in combining rule-based control methods with the developedoptimization based method since rule-based methods can add the stability required forenhanced drivability.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Applied Control System Design examines several methods for building up systems models based on real experimental data from typical industrial processes and incorporating system identification techniques. The text takes a comparative approach to the models derived in this way judging their suitability for use in different systems and under different operational circumstances. A broad spectrum of control methods including various forms of filtering, feedback and feedforward control is applied to the models and the guidelines derived from the closed-loop responses are then composed into a concrete self-tested recipe to serve as a check-list for industrial engineers or control designers. System identification and control design are given equal weight in model derivation and testing to reflect their equality of importance in the proper design and optimization of high-performance control systems. Readers’ assimilation of the material discussed is assisted by the provision of problems and examples. Most of these exercises use MATLAB® to make computation and visualization more straightforward. Applied Control System Design will be of interest to academic researchers for its comparison of different systems models and their response to different control methods and will assist graduate students in learning the practical necessities of advanced control system design. The consistent reference to real systems coupled with self-learning tools will assist control practitioners who wish to keep up to date with the latest control design ideas.

Book Optimally personalized Hybrid Electric Vehicle Powertrain Control

Download or read book Optimally personalized Hybrid Electric Vehicle Powertrain Control written by Xiangrui Zeng and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the main goals of hybrid electric vehicle technology is to improve the energy efficiency. In industry and most of academic research, the powertrain control is designed and evaluated under standard driving cycles. However, the situations that a vehicle may encounter in the real world could be quite different from the standard cycles. Studies show that the human drivers have a great influence on the vehicle energy consumptions and emissions. The actual operating conditions that a vehicle faces are not only dependent on the roads and traffic, but also dependent on the drivers. A standard driving cycle can only represent the typical and averaged driving style under the typical driving scenarios, therefore the control strategies designed based on a standard driving cycle may not perform well for all different driving styles. This motivates the idea to design optimally-personalized hybrid electric vehicle control methods that can be adaptive to individual human driving styles and their driving routes. Human-subject experiments are conducted on a driving simulator to study the driving behaviors. A stochastic driver pedal model that can learn individual driver’s driving style is developed first. Then a theoretic investigation on worst-case relative cost optimal control problems, which is closely related to vehicle powertrain optimal control under real-world uncertain driving scenarios, is presented. A two-level control structure for plug-in hybrid electric vehicles is proposed, where the parameters in the lower-level controller can be on-line adjusted via optimization using historical driving data. The methods to optimize these parameters are designed for fixed-route driving first, and then extended to multi-routes driving using the idea similar to the worst-case relative cost optimal control. The performances of the two proposed methods are shown through simulations using human driving data and stochastic driver model data respectively. The energy consumption results in both situations are close to the posteriori optimal result and outperform other existing methods, which show the effectiveness of applying optimally-personalized energy management strategy on hybrid electric vehicles. Finally, a route-based global energy-optimal speed planning method is also proposed. This off-line method provides a useful tool to evaluate the potential of other speed planning methods, for either eco-driving guidance applications or future automated vehicle controls. The contributions of this dissertation include 1) a novel stochastic driver pedal behavior model which can learn independent drivers’ driving styles is created, 2) a new worst-case relative cost optimal control method is proposed, 3) a real-time implementable stochastic optimal energy management strategy for hybrid electric vehicles running on fixed routes is designed using the statistics of history driving data, 4) the fix-route strategy is extended to the multi-route situation, and 5) an off-line global energy-optimal speed planning solution for road vehicles on a given route is presented.

Book Real time Autonomous Cruise Control of Connected Plug in Hybrid Electric Vehicles Under Uncertainty

Download or read book Real time Autonomous Cruise Control of Connected Plug in Hybrid Electric Vehicles Under Uncertainty written by Bijan Sakhdari and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Advances in embedded digital computing and communication networks have enabled the development of automated driving systems. Autonomous cruise control (ACC) and cooperative ACC (CACC) systems are two popular types of these technologies, which can be implemented to enhance safety, traffic flow, driving comfort and energy economy. This PhD thesis develops robust and adaptive controllers for plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs), with the Toyota Plug-in Prius as the baseline vehicle, in order to enable them to perform safe and robust car-following and platooning with improved vehicle performance. Three controllers are designed here to achieve three main goals. The first goal of this thesis is the development of a real-time Ecological ACC (Eco-ACC) system for PHEVs, that is robust to uncertainties. A novel adaptive tube-based nonlinear model predictive control (AT-NMPC) approach to the design of Eco-ACC systems is proposed. Through utilizing two separate models to define the constrained optimal control problem, this method takes into account uncertainties, modeling errors and delayed data in the design of the controller and guaranties robust constraint handling for the assumed uncertainty bounds. {In addition, it adapts to changes in order to improve the control performance when possible.} Furthermore, a Newton/GMRES fast solver is employed to implement the designed AT-NMPC in real-time. The second goal is the development of a real-time Ecological CACC (Eco-CACC) system that can simultaneously satisfy the frequency-domain and time-domain platooning criteria. A novel distributed reference governor (RG) approach to the constraint handling of vehicle platoons equipped with CACC is presented. RG sits behind the controlled string stable system and keeps the output inside the defined constraints. Furthermore, to improve the platoon's energy economy, a controller is presented for the leader's control using NMPC method, assuming it is a PHEV. The third objective of this thesis is the control of heterogeneous platoons using an adaptive control approach. A direct model reference adaptive controller (MRAC) is designed that enforces a string stable behavior on the vehicle platoon despite different dynamical models of the platoon members and the external disturbances acting on the systems. The proposed method estimates the controller coefficients on-line to adapt to the disturbances such as wind, changing road grade and also to different vehicle dynamic behaviors. The main purpose of all three controllers is to maintain the driving safety of connected vehicles in car-following and platooning while being real-time implementable. In addition, when there is a possibility for performance enhancement without sacrificing safety, ecological improvement is also considered. For each designed controller, Model-in-the-Loop (MIL) simulations and Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) experiments are performed using high-fidelity vehicle models in order to validate controllers' performance and ensure their real-time implementation capability.
