Abstract
Electric wheel-drive multi-axle heavy-duty vehicles have the characteristics of strong maneuverability and good passability, thereby they are widely used in heavy equipment transportation. However, current research on the composite braking of multi-axle heavy-duty vehicles is rare, which is not conducive to improving braking performance and braking energy utilization efficiency. This work proposes a multi-mode composite braking control strategy for the five-axle distributed electric wheel-drive heavy-duty vehicle. Firstly, given the differences in braking dynamics between two-axle vehicles and multi-axle vehicles, the brake dynamics characteristics of multi-axle vehicles are analyzed, and the vehicle dynamics model of multi-axle vehicles is constructed. Next, a multi-mode composite braking control strategy including a fully electric braking state and hybrid electro–hydraulic braking state is proposed in order to improve the braking energy recovery and braking stability. Finally, a hardware-in-the-loop simulation system is established, and the single-braking conditions and China heavy-duty commercial vehicle test cycle-heavy truck (abbreviated as CHTC-HT) are conducted to verify the performance of the braking control strategy. The results indicate that the recaptured braking energy and braking stability are significantly increased by applying the control strategy proposed in this work.
