This paper provides a hierarchical control strategy for cooperative braking system of an electric vehicle with separated driven axles. Two layers are defined: the top layer is used to optimize the braking stability based on two sliding mode control strategies, namely, the interaxle control mode and signal-axle control strategies; the interaxle control strategy generates the ideal braking force distribution in general braking condition, and the single-axle control strategy can ensure braking safety in emergency braking condition; the bottom layer is used to maximize the regenerative braking energy recovery efficiency with a reallocated braking torque strategy; the reallocated braking torque strategy can recovery braking energy as much as possible in the premise of meeting battery charging power. The simulation results show that the proposed hierarchical control strategy is reasonable and can adapt to different typical road surfaces and load cases; the vehicle braking stability and safety can be guaranteed; furthermore, the regenerative braking energy recovery efficiency can be improved.

Electric vehicles can convert the kinetic energy of the vehicle into electric energy for recycling. A reasonable braking force distribution strategy is the key to ensure braking stability and the energy recovery rate. For an electric vehicle, based on the ECE regulation curve and ideal braking force distribution (I curve), the braking force distribution strategy of the front and rear axles is designed to study the braking energy recovery control strategy. The fuzzy control method is adopted while the charging power limit of the battery is considered to correct the regenerative braking torque of the motor, the ratio of the regenerative braking force of the motor to the front axle braking force is designed according to different braking strengths, then the braking force distribution and braking energy recovery control strategies for regenerative braking and friction braking are developed. The simulation model of combined vehicle and energy recovery control strategy is established by Simulink and Cruise software. The braking energy recovery control strategy of this article is verified under different braking conditions and New European Driving Cycle conditions. The results show that the control strategy proposed in this article meets the requirements of braking stability. Under the condition of initial state of charge of 75%, the variation of state of charge of braking control strategy in this article is reduced by 8.22%, and the state of charge of braking strategy based on I curve reduces by 9.12%. The braking force distribution curves of the front and rear axle are in line with the braking characteristics, can effectively recover the braking energy, and improve the battery state of charge. Taking the using range of 95%–5% of battery state of charge as calculation target, the cruising range of vehicle with braking control strategy of this article increases to 136.64 km, which showed that the braking control strategy in this article could increase the cruising range of the electric vehicle.

The regenerative braking strategy for precursor pure electric vehicle was studied in this paper. Firstly, a constraint optimization model was established for the braking force distribution, in which both braking stability and recovery efficiency of braking energy were taken into account. Secondly, Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm was applied to optimize the multi key parameters in the model. Finally, the optimized braking torque of the motor was obtained at different speed, different braking strength and different battery charge state. A vehicle model was built to validate the optimized results through simulation. The results showed that, compared with the original control strategy, the optimized control strategy not only could increase the braking stability effectively, but also improve the energy recovery efficiency in a certain extent.

The Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) of Electric Vehicle (EV) is improved in this paper. Based on the research of system structure and motor, a new method is proposed to adjust the threshold and coordinate the motor braking force with the friction braking force. So the traditional threshold control algorithm of ABS is improved for the EV. The simulation results based on the MATLAB/Simulink model indicate that the improved ABS can keep the wheels in the stability region and decrease the motor regenerative braking force as soon as possible. The balance between brake safety and energy recovery is achieved through this method.

In order to increase the regenerative braking energy recovery and the dynamic performance of vehicle start and acceleration in the stage of brake, the hydraulic braking energy recovery system was used with the storage battery braking energy recovery system after comparing kinds of regenerative braking recovery plan and energy storage method. The system was used to do simulation and analysis in vehicle dynamic performance and energy recovery efficiency under the PID control and ECE-15 cycle. The system simulation and analysis results show that using hydraulic regenerative braking system in pure electric vehicle can significantly improve the ability of vehicle’s start-acceleration and the increase in vehicle driving range of around 28%.

A new cooperative braking control strategy (CBCS) is proposed for a parallel hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) with both a regenerative braking system and an antilock braking system (ABS) to achieve improved braking performance and energy regeneration. The braking system of the vehicle is based on a new method of HEV braking torque distribution that makes the antilock braking system work together with the regenerative braking system harmoniously. In the cooperative braking control strategy, a sliding mode controller (SMC) for ABS is designed to maintain the wheel slip within an optimal range by adjusting the hydraulic braking torque continuously; to reduce the chattering in SMC, a boundary-layer method with moderate tuning of a saturation function is also investigated; based on the wheel slip ratio, battery state of charge (SOC), and the motor speed, a fuzzy logic control strategy (FLC) is applied to adjust the regenerative braking torque dynamically. In order to evaluate the performance of the cooperative braking control strategy, the braking system model of a hybrid electric vehicle is built in MATLAB/SIMULINK. It is found from the simulation that the cooperative braking control strategy suggested in this paper provides satisfactory braking performance, passenger comfort, and high regenerative efficiency.

This paper proposes a novel decoupled approach of a regenerative braking system for an electric city bus, aiming at improving the utilization of the kinetic energy for rear axle during a braking process. Three contributions are added to distinguish from the previous research. Firstly, an energy-flow model of the electric bus is established to identify the characteristic parameters which affect the energy-saving efficiency of the vehicle, while the key parameters (e.g., driving cycles and the recovery rate of braking energy) are also analyzed. Secondly, a decoupled braking energy recovery scheme together with the control strategy is developed based on the characteristics of the power assistance for electric city bus which equips an air braking system, as well as the regulatory requirements of ECE R13. At last, the energy consumption of the electric city bus is analyzed by both the simulation and vehicle tests, when the superimposed and the decoupled regenerative braking system are, respectively, employed for the vehicle. The simulation and actual road test results show that compared with the superposition braking system of the basic vehicle, the decoupled braking energy recovery system after the reform can improve the braking energy recovery rate and vehicle energy-saving degree. The decoupled energy recovery system scheme and control strategy proposed in this paper can be adopted by bus factories to reduce the energy consumption of pure-electric buses.

The regenerative braking system of electric vehicles can not only achieve the task of braking but also recover the braking energy. However, due to the lack of in-depth analysis of the energy loss mechanism in electric braking, the energy cannot be fully recovered. In this study, the energy recovery problem of regenerative braking using the independent front axle and rear axle motor drive system is investigated. The accurate motor model is established, and various losses are analyzed. Based on the principle of minimum losses, the motor control strategy is designed. Furthermore, the power flow characteristics in electric braking are analyzed, and the optimal continuously variable transmission (CVT) speed ratio under different working conditions is obtained through optimization. To understand the potential of dual-motor energy recovery, a regenerative braking control strategy is proposed by optimizing the dynamic distribution coefficient of the dual-electric mechanism and considering the restrictions of regulations and the I curve. The simulation results under typical operating conditions and the New York City Cycle (NYCC) proposed conditions indicate that the improved strategy has higher joint efficiency. The energy recovery rate of the proposed strategy is increased by 1.18% in comparison with the typical braking strategy.
