Abstract

The over-actuated characteristics of distributed drive electric vehicles (DDEVs) provide a flexible platform to pursue higher holistic performance. This article proposes a dual-model predictive control (MPC)-based hierarchical framework to realize the energy saving while improving the handling stability for DDEVs. The upper layer allocates the torque vector through the front/rear axles, which can provide a high-efficiency zone for the in-wheel motors and reduce the energy consumption. The lower layer generates a direct-yaw-moment (DYC) control input by differential longitudinal forces of the left/right wheels to ensure the vehicle handling stability. Considering the time-varying state variables, a…
