Accurate estimation of the degree of battery aging is essential to ensure safe operation of electric vehicles. In this paper, using real-world vehicles and their operational data, a battery aging estimation method is proposed based on a dual-polarization equivalent circuit (DPEC) model and multiple data-driven models. The DPEC model and the forgetting factor recursive least-squares method are used to determine the battery system’s ohmic internal resistance, with outliers being filtered using boxplots. Furthermore, eight common data-driven models are used to describe the relationship between battery degradation and the factors influencing this degradation, and these models are analyzed and compared in terms of both estimation accuracy and computational requirements. The results show that the gradient descent tree regression, XGBoost regression, and light GBM regression models are more accurate than the other methods, with root mean square errors of less than 6.9 mΩ. The AdaBoost and random forest regression models are regarded as alternative groups because of their relative instability. The linear regression, support vector machine regression, and k-nearest neighbor regression models are not recommended because of poor accuracy or excessively high computational requirements. This work can serve as a reference for subsequent battery degradation studies based on real-time operational data.

Accurate state-of-health (SOH) estimation for battery packs in electric vehicles (EVs) plays a pivotal role in preventing battery fault occurrence and extending their service life. In this paper, a novel internal ohmic resistance estimation method is proposed by combining electric circuit models and data-driven algorithms. Firstly, an improved recursive least squares (RLS) is used to estimate the internal ohmic resistance. Then, an automatic outlier identification method is presented to filter out the abnormal ohmic resistance estimated under different temperatures. Finally, the ohmic resistance estimation model is established based on the Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) regression algorithm and inputs of temperature and driving distance. The proposed model is examined based on test datasets. The root mean square errors (RMSEs) are less than 4 mΩ while the mean absolute percentage errors (MAPEs) are less than 6%. The results show that the proposed method is feasible and accurate, and can be implemented in real-world EVs.

Friction Estimation

The rack force is valuable information for a vehicle dynamics control system, as it relates closely to the road conditions and steering feel. Since there is no direct measurement of rack force in current steering systems, various rack force estimation methods have been proposed to obtain the rack force information. In order to get an accurate rack force estimate, it is important to have knowledge of the steering system friction. However, it is hard to have an accurate value of friction, as it is subject to variation due to operation conditions and material wear. Especially for the widely used column-assisted electric power steering (C-EPAS) system, the load-dependent characteristic of its worm gear friction has a significant effect on rack force estimation. In this paper, a rack force estimation method using a Kalman filter and a load-dependent friction estimation algorithm is introduced, and the effect of C-EPAS friction on rack force estimator performance is investigated. Unlike other rack force estimation methods, which assume that friction is known a priori, the proposed system uses a load-dependent friction estimation algorithm to determine accurate friction information in the steering system, and then a rack force is estimated using the relationship between steering torque and angle. The effectiveness of this proposed method is verified by carsim/simulink cosimulation.
