Abstract
Vehicle stability control logic for a four-wheel-drive hybrid electric vehicle is proposed using the regenerative braking of the rear motor and an electrohydraulic brake (EHB). To obtain the optimal brake torque distribution between the regenerative braking and the EHB torque, a genetic algorithm is used. The genetic algorithm calculates the optimal regenerative braking torque and the optimal EHB torque for the given inputs of the desired yaw moment and road friction coefficient. Based on the optimal brake torque distribution, the vehicle stability control logic proposed generates the desired direct yaw moment to compensate the errors of the side-slip angle and yaw rate by a fuzzy control algorithm corresponding to the driver's steering angle and vehicle velocity. Performance of the vehicle stability control logic is evaluated by comparison of the fixed regenerative braking and the optimal regenerative braking for a single lane change manoeuvre. It is found from the simulation results that the optimal regenerative braking is able to provide the increased recuperation energy compared with the fixed regenerative braking while satisfying the vehicle stability.
