Abstract:Mobile machines consume a large amount of fossil fuel each year; therefore, it is critical to reduce their fuel consumption. A wheel loader is a typical mobile machine of great research interest. Most compact wheel loaders are usually equipped with hydrostatic transmissions. To reduce the fuel consumption of the powertrain, a min-rpm strategy where the engine speed is maintained as low as possible is usually applied. It is a rule-based control strategy, however, cannot achieve minimum engine fuel consumption. … Show more
