Abstract

Current researches on electric vehicles are focusing on the environment and energy aspects. However, electric motors also have much better control performance than the internal combustion engines. Electric vehicles could not only be “cleaner” and “more energy efficient”, but also become “safer” with “better driving performance”. In this paper, a discrete elasto-plastic friction model is proposed for a dynamic emulation of tire/road friction for developing control systems of electric vehicles. The friction model can capture the transient behavior of the friction force during braking and acceleration, therefore the model-based emulation could enable more reliable verifications for various electric vehicle control methods.
