As the energy crisis and environmental pollution continue to be a gradual threat, the energy saving of transmission systems has become the focus of railway vehicle research and design. Due to their high-power density and efficiency features, permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSM) have been gradually applied in railway vehicles. To improve the efficiency of the transmission system of diesel railway vehicles, it is a good option to use PMSM as both a generator and traction motor to construct a full permanent magnet transmission system (FPMTS). Due to the application of the new FPMTS, some of the original control strategies for diesel railway vehicle transmission systems are no longer applicable. Therefore, it is necessary to adjust and improve the control strategies to meet the needs of FPMTS. We studied several key issues that affect the reliability and comfort of the vehicles. As such, this paper introduced the FPMTS control strategy, including the coordinated control strategy of the diesel and the traction motor, the two degrees of freedom (2DOF) decoupling current regulator, the maximum torque control of the standardized unit current, the wheel slip protection control, and the fault protection strategy. The experiment was carried out on the test platform and the test run of the diesel shunting locomotive equipped with the FPMTS. The results showed that the control strategy described in this paper met the operation characteristics of the FPMTS and that the control performance was superior. The study of FPMTS lays the foundation for the subsequent application of permanent magnet motors in high-powered diesel locomotives and high-speed diesel multi-units.

This paper proposes an optimized flux weakening (FW) control strategy for interior permanent-magnet synchronous electric motor to address the critical issues that could occur under torque setpoint transition in flux weakening region, due, for example, to an emergency braking. This situation is typical in electric vehicles where the electrical machines operate over a wide speed range to reach high power density and avoid gearboxes. Two modified traditional flux weakening strategies are proposed in this paper to improve torque control quality during high speed torque transition. The proposed modified control strategies were validated both by Matlab/Simulink simulations, modeling the power train of a light vehicle application, and extensive experimental tests on a dedicated test bench.

High-speed permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) is more and more widely applied in high precision processing and high-performance machines. It is very important to research practical control strategy for the stability operation of the high-speed PMSM. The strategy of sensorless grey prediction fuzzy direct torque control (DTC) is proposed which is suitable for high-speed PMSM control system. The method of prediction fuzzy control based on DTC is used to gain the flux, torque and flux oriented angle through the prediction model of the motor parameters. The best control scheme is gained by fuzzy reasoning to overcome the lag on the system making the adjustment process stable and realizing accurate predictive control. Thereby, the dynamic response of the system, anti-disturbance capability and control accuracy can be improved.

This paper mainly reviews the development of permanent magnet synchronous motor drive system. It presents several approaches of PMSM control strategies, including control strategies based on classical control, modern control and intelligent control. Theoretical background briefly describes the properties of these control techniques. Among these control strategies, vector control and direct torque control are considered as the mature methods for PMSM motors control currently. Advanced control strategies, with adaptive control, variable structure control and intelligent control included, improve the performance of PMSM in some respects, such as variations of plant parameters sensitivity, external disturbance and so on. It shows that the researches in this area are still a popular research topic. Finally, this paper prospected the foreground of the control strategies for PMSM.

Emergency lane changes are often the best course of action when avoiding obstacles on the road, but this maneuver has the possibility of sending the vehicle out of control. The University of Washington EcoCAR team has a hybrid-electric vehicle outfitted with an electric drivetrain and variable torque control to each of the rear wheels. Each rear wheel has an electric motor that is independently controlled to provide torque to the wheel. A lateral vehicle dynamics model is used to develop a torque control strategy to improve the safety and maneuverability of a modified hybrid-electric 2016 Camaro as part of the EcoCAR 3 competition. The specific scenario simulated is a two-lane lane change at a speed of 55 mph. We would like to increase the yaw and lateral accelerations that the vehicle can perform safely by controlling differing torques out of the two motors. Regulating these accelerations requires a control strategy over the left and right motor torques. Equal-torque control of the electric motors will be used as a baseline.

This article proposes a conceptual model of a new type permanent magnet 3-degree-of-freedom motor. Its structure consists of an internal rotation module and a peripheral deflection module. It can be driven independently to achieve high-speed rotation and precise tilting of the motor. The 3-degree-of-freedom movement of the motor in space is achieved by the synchronous operation of the rotation and the deflection. In order to explore the loss problem caused by the temperature rise problem in the actual operation of the motor, the eddy current loss and core loss inside the permanent magnet of the motor are analyzed by theoretical formula and finite element method, respectively. Based on the static magnetic field, the gas flux density of two types of rotor permanent magnets in different coordinate systems is analyzed. The motor’s rotation and deflection torque characteristics are calculated using the principle of virtual displacement method. Using the auxiliary technology of the virtual prototype, according to the actual situation of the motor, the corresponding motion hinges and driving forms are summarized, and the control strategies of rotation, deflection, and rotation and deflection simultaneously are planned. The trajectory of the motor is described by observing the selected points. For the motor from product design to prototype testing and to the final processing assembly, a solid theoretical foundation is laid for the proposed work.

Control strategy is the most important issue in the Plug-in Hybrid electric vehicles (PHEV) design, which has two modes: charge depleting mode (CD) and charge sustaining mode (CS). The different control strategies in depleting mode will have a great influence on PHEV dynamic performance and fuel economy. The engine optimal torque control strategy was proposed in the paper. The vehicle simulation model in Powertrain Systems Analysis Toolkit (PSAT) was adopted to evaluate the proposed control strategy. The aggressive highway drive cycle Artemis_hwy and a random drive cycle generated by Markov Process were used. The simulation results indicate the proposed control strategy has great improvement in fuel economy.
