Split System

The coordination control of a transmission system has gradually attracted more attention with the development of hybrid electric vehicles. However, nonlinear coupling of multiple power sources, superposition of different dynamic characteristics in multiple components, and withdrawal and intervention for a power-split powertrain with a two-speed automated manual transmission (AMT) gearbox can cause jerk and vibration of the transmission system during the shift, which has higher requirements and challenges for the overall performance improvement of the system. This paper designs a novel, robust, augmented H∞ shift control strategy for a power-split system with a two-speed AMT gearbox of a heavy commercial vehicle and verifies the strategy’s effectiveness with simulations and experiments. First, the dynamic plant model and kinetic equations are established, and the shift is divided into five stages to clearly reveal the jerk and vibration problem. Based on augmented theory, a robust H∞ shift control strategy is proposed. Shift coordination is transformed into a speed tracking problem, and state variable and disturbance are reconstructed to obtain a new augmented system. Simulation and hardware-in-the-loop test are carried out to verify the effectiveness of the strategy, which mainly includes simulation of pneumatic actuator and H∞ control strategy. Results show that the proposed H∞ control strategy can greatly reduce the jerk of the transmission system. The jerk produced by the proposed strategy is decreased from 20.4 to 4.07 m/s3, leading to a substantial improvement of 80%. Therefore, the proposed strategy may offer a theoretical reference for the actual vehicle controller during the shift.

Adaptive Control Scheme

In this study, an adaptive control based on fuzzy adapting rate for neural emulator of nonlinear systems having unknown dynamics is proposed. The indirect adaptive control scheme is composed by the neural emulator and the neural controller which are connected by an autonomous algorithm inspired from the real-time recurrent learning. In order to ensure stability and faster convergence, a neural controller adapting rate is established in the sense of the continuous Lyapunov stability method. Numerical simulations are included to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method. The performance of the proposed control strategy is also demonstrated through an experimental simulation.

Highlights A power shift control strategy based on torque and speed transition, which aims to deliver multiple target and multiparameter optimization of power shift control, is proposed in this study. It can effectively solve the shift power cycle. Based on minimum optimal control theory, the optimal control of shift quality during power shifting optimizes clutch terminal oil pressure, which is determined by solving the Rebecca differential matrix equation and shift characteristics based on various stages. By aiming at the multiple target and multiparameter optimization problem of the clutch control in the power shift process, the minimum optimal control principle is applied to the shift quality optimization of the power shift. Based on the minimum optimal control theory, the optimal solution of the terminal oil pressure of the clutch is determined by solving the Rebecca differential matrix equation to improve the shift quality of the power shift process. Abstract . The dual clutch of the combined transmission of a tractor with large horsepower uses a dynamic shifting process, in which only one clutch undergoes slipping friction during the shift. A power shift control strategy based on torque and speed transition, which aims to deliver multiple target and multiparameter optimization of power shift control, is proposed in this study. Based on minimum optimal control theory, the optimal control of shift quality during power shifting optimizes clutch terminal oil pressure, which is determined by solving the Rebecca differential matrix equation and shift characteristics based on various stages. In addition, the power shift simulation model of the double clutch is established. Simulation results show that the power shift control strategy based on single slip friction can effectively avoid power flow cycle, uninterruptible tractor power shift, and adaptive resistance change. The minimum optimization theory can effectively reduce the output torque fluctuation in the dynamic shift process, reduce friction work, and improve the shift impact.

In view of the complex calculation and limited fault tolerance capability of existing neutral point shift control algorithms, this paper studies the fault-tolerant control method for sub-module faults in modular multilevel converters on the basis of neutral point compound shift control strategy. In order to reduce the calculation complexity of shift parameters in the traditional strategy and simplify its implementation, an improved AC side phase voltage vector reconstruction method is proposed, achieving online real-time calculation of the modulation wave adjustment parameters of each phase required for fault-tolerant control. Based on this, a neutral point DC side shift control method is proposed to further improve the fault tolerance capability of the modular multilevel converter (MMC) system by compensating the fault phase voltage with non-fault phase voltage. By means of the compound shift control strategy of the DC side and AC side of the neutral point, an optimal neutral point position is selected to ensure that the MMC system output line voltage is symmetrical and the amplitude is as large as possible after fault-tolerant control. Finally, the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed control strategy are verified by simulation and low-power MMC experimental system testing.
