An antilock braking method based on sliding mode control (SMC) for electric vehicles (EVs) is proposed on the basis of antilock braking dynamics model, and hence an SMC controller of antilock braking system is designed. Aiming at the chattering of SMC, a method of parameter fuzzy optimization for exponential approach law is proposed, which can meet the requirements for small chattering, strong disturbance attenuation and fast convergence. In order to take full advantage of regenerative braking force, a method of braking force distribution between mechanical and electrical braking systems is elaborated. The simulations on the road with different friction coefficients show that the vehicle speed is in good agreement with the wheel speed during braking, and the slip ratio is kept within an optimal range. Adopting SMC based on fuzzy optimization, optimal slip ratio can be tracked fast and accurately. Furthermore, since the regenerative braking force is made full use of during braking, the energy recovery efficiency is high.

One area researched intensively to enhance passenger safety is the prevention of collisions by controlling steering and braking precisely. In this study, we assume that an automatic vehicle travelling on a highway is on a collision course with an obstacle. The purpose of this research is combining steering and braking to find a set of operations the vehicle can follow to avoid the projected collision. To do this, we propose slip ratio control using sliding mode control using a real-number-coded immune algorithm (IA). CarSim (produced by Mechanical Simulation Company) provides full vehicle dynamics with 27 degrees of freedom adopted as a vehicle model. Operation waveforms are generated by linear interpolation through designated data points. The IA, which is a coded real-number expression, is used to determine data points. Our proposal's efficiency is verified through emergency avoidance simulation using CarSim. Simulation results demonstrate operation that keeps tires from skidding using slip ratio control and halting the vehicle in the shortest braking distance possible.
