The continuous innovation on the electric vehicle area has led to the use of multi-motor powertrain topologies. These powertrains imply new degrees of freedom and better controllability, thus enabling elaborate control solutions for enhanced vehicle dynamics. This allows not only to achieve better vehicle stability, but also greater performance and responsiveness, leading to safer and more satisfying vehicle handling. This work presents a Fuzzy Torque Vectoring Controller for a rear-wheel drive car with independent motors per wheel. The developed design has been validated in a high fidelity vehicle dynamics simulation platform demonstrating its capability to enhance not only curve performance, but also stability.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
