Based on double trailing arm suspension, relating to two-wheel-drive structures with inhibition of vertical vibration: a motor-integrated electric wheel-drive system and an electric wheel-drive system of which the motor can swing up and down and act as a dynamic absorber. In the paper a unified differential equation of motion of the two electric wheel drive systems was deduced, and Matlab and Adams were applied to simulate and analyze the ride comfort of the two drive systems. The analysis results show that compared to the traditional In-Wheel Motor Driven EV, the vertical acceleration of the car body of either of the two drive systems is lower, which significantly increases the ride comfort of car. Between the two electric wheel-drive systems, the latter system with dynamic absorber motor is more efficient to inhibit vertical vibration.

Vertical Vibrations

The theoretical research on means to reduce the vertical vibrations and improve the ride comfort of the railway vehicle relies on a mechanical model obtained from the simplified representation of the vehicle, while considering the important factors and elements affecting the vibration behaviour of the carbody. One of these elements is the anti-yaw damper, mounted longitudinally, between the bogie and the vehicle carbody. The anti-yaw damper reduces the lateral vibrations and inhibits the yaw motion of the vehicle, a reason for which this element is not usually introduced in the vehicle model when studying the vertical vibrations. Nevertheless, due to the position of the clamping points of the anti-yaw damper onto the carbody and the bogie, the damping force is generated not only in the yawing direction but also in the vertical and longitudinal directions. These forces act upon the vehicle carbody, impacting its vertical vibration behaviour. The paper analyzes the effect of the anti-winding damper on the vertical vibrations of the railway vehicle carbody and the ride comfort, based on the results derived from the numerical simulations. They highlight the influence of the damping, stiffness and the damper mounting angle on the power spectral density of the carbody vertical acceleration and the ride comfort index.

The article presents issues related to the possibility of using electric and hybrid systems to drive Small Waterplane Area Twin Hull (SWATH) vessels. Ships of this type have significantly less sway and heave compared to monohull crafts and catamarans. Thanks to the synergistic combination of the hydrodynamic properties of SWATH hull and electric drive systems, they can be an interesting proposition for use in transport of passengers and offshore wind farms service crews. The paper presents comparative test results of an electric drive system powered by Hybrid Energy Storage System, which are a combination of systems consisting of batteries (BAT), hydrogen fuel cells (FC) and diesel generators (D). For the presented configurations of propulsion systems, mathematical models taking into account the hydrodynamic resistance of the hull of the vessel have been developed and implemented in the Modelica simulation environment. The tests carried out for various configurations of the drive system have shown reduced energy consumption by the DIESEL-ELECTRIC drive system (by approx. 62%), as well as the reduction of harmful greenhouse gas emissions to the atmosphere (by approx. 62%) compared to the conventional DIESEL drive.

In order to improve the ride comfort straddle-type monorail, based on the full-scale straddle-type monorail model with 38-DOF, combined with the modular control thought and adaptive neural fuzzy inference system(ANFIS) control theory, the ANFIS-PID controller is designed, in which the vertical vibration velocity and acceleration, pitching angular velocity and angular acceleration, rolling angular velocity and angular acceleration are taken as inputs and the actuator force of active suspension as outputs. The results show that compared with existing passive suspension, the root mean squared values(RMS) of vertical acceleration, pitching angular acceleration and rolling angular acceleration of active suspension is significantly reduced, respectively. And the vibration amplitude below 10Hz frequency range is suppressed, which is the human sensitivity frequency. Active suspension controlled by ANFIS-PID can be used as a way to improve the ride comfort of straddle monorail vehicles.

Abstract The paper shows a typical drive systems used in today's vehicles, mainly cars. Approximated scheme of the formation of the driving force of the vehicle and the necessary mathematical relations for the calculation. For example, a typical passenger car BMW 320 was analyzed and calculations obtained a driving force, of adhesion and acceleration. The calculations were performed for the drive system, the classical (i.e. the rear axle of the vehicle) for front-wheel drive and four-wheel drive (4×4). Virtually assumed that to the above mentioned vehicle it is possible buildings of each of said system. These are shown graphically in diagrams bearing a distribution of the forces acting on the substrate and the reactions - the data necessary for the calculations. The resulting calculation is graphically shown in the diagrams, in which is illustrated a change value of the resulting adhesive strength, and the acceleration depending on the drive type vehicle.

This article presents the results of energy consumption research for an electric light commercial vehicle (eLCV) powered by a centrally located motor (4 × 2 drive system) or motors placed in the vehicle’s wheels (4 × 4 drive system). For the considered constructions of electric drive systems, mathematical models of 4 × 2 and 4 × 4 drive systems were developed in the Modelica simulation environment, based on real data. Additionally, the influence of changes in the vehicle loading condition on the operation of the motor mounted in the wheel and the energy consumption of the drive module was investigated. On the basis of the conducted research, a comparative analysis of energy consumption by electric drive systems in 4 × 2 and 4 × 4 configurations was carried out for selected test cycles. The tests carried out with the Worldwide harmonized Light vehicles Test Cycles (WLTC) test cycle showed a roughly 6% lower energy consumption by the 4 × 4 drive system compared to the 4 × 2 configuration.

Despite the increasing popularity of permanent magnet synchronous machines, induction motors (IM) are still the most frequently used electrical machines in commercial applications. Ensuring a failure-free operation of IM motivates research aimed at the development of effective methods of monitoring and diagnostic of electrical machines. The presented paper deals with diagnostics of an IM with failure of an inter-turn short-circuit in a stator winding. As this type of failure commonly does not lead immediately to exclusion of a drive system, an early stage diagnosis of inter-turn short-circuit enables preventive maintenance and reduce the costs of a whole drive system failure. In the proposed approach, the early diagnostics of IM with the inter-turn short-circuit is based on the analysis of an electromagnetic torque waveform. The research is based on an elaborated numerical field–circuit model of IM. In the presented model, the inter-turn short-circuit in the selected winding has been accounted for. As the short-circuit between the turns can occur in different locations in coils of winding, computations were carried out for various quantity of shorted turns in the winding. The performed analysis of impact of inter-turn short-circuit on torque waveforms allowed to find the correlation between the quantity of shorted turns and torque ripple level. This correlation can be used as input into the first layer of an artificial neural network in early and noninvasive diagnostics of drive systems.
