Hierarchical control for cornering stability of dual-motor RWD vehicles with electronic differential system using PSO optimized SOSMC method

This paper proposes a novel control scheme with a three-layer hierarchical structure to improve the cornering stability of the dual-motor rear-wheel drive (RWD) vehicles with the electronic differential system (EDS). The proposed hierarchical structure for the control system includes the observing layer, control layer, and actuation layer. In the observing layer, the driver model is designed to obtain the nominal steering angle, and the state observer is designed to obtain the yaw angle which cannot be easily measured. Then, particle swarm optimization (PSO) and second order sliding mode control (SOSMC) are employed in the control layer. The SOSMC part is used to design the control law to eliminate the chattering problem in the sliding mode algorithm, and the PSO part is used to obtain the optimal weights in the sliding mode surface to meet the minimum sideslip angle error and yaw rate error. The actuation layer allocates the corrected yaw moment by distributing the driving force to each independent driving wheel. Finally, the numerical tests are carried out under the double line change (DLC) maneuver. The results show that the proposed control system can effectively improve the cornering stability of the dual-motor RWD vehicles and reduce their motor power consumption.     

Dynamic analysis of a novel time‐lag four‐dimensional fractional‐order financial system

In this paper, a novel four‐dimensional fractional‐order financial system (FFS) with time delay is presented. Unlike traditional bifurcation analysis of financial systems, the selection rules of two bifurcation points within the system are discussed. In addition, the motion state of the system in the vicinity of two bifurcation points are analyzed separately, such that the dynamic analysis of this novel nonlinear fourth‐dimensional FFS is more comprehensive. The detailed dynamical behaviors of this financial system, such as oscillation, stability, and bifurcation points, are deduced via rigorous mathematical analysis. Finally, some simulations are performed to verify the dynamic characteristics of the FFS around the two bifurcation points which satisfy the selection conditions of the bifurcation point.     

An H∞non‐fragile observer‐based adaptive sliding mode controller design for uncertain fractional‐order nonlinear systems with time delay and input nonlinearity

In this paper the problem of non‐fragile adaptive sliding mode observer design is addressed for a class of nonlinear fractional‐order time‐delay systems with uncertainties, external disturbance, exogenous noise, and input nonlinearity. An H_∞ observer‐based adaptive sliding mode control considering the non‐fragility of the observer is proposed for this system. The sufficient asymptotic stability conditions are derived in the form of linear matrix inequalities. It is proven that the sliding surface is reachable in finite time. An illustrative example is provided which corroborates the effectiveness of the theoretical results.

高斯渐进贝叶斯滤波器

渐进贝叶斯方法将先验分布到后验分布的演化描述为一阶动态系统,通过在伪时间上连续地引入观测信息实现后验状态估计.该方法的一般形式解,即动态系统的时间导数,是难以得到的.本文提出一种高斯型渐进贝叶斯滤波器.首先在线性高斯条件下推导了时间导数的解析解;然后证明了在该条件下,由该解析解确定的一阶动态系统与常量状态估计的Kalman-Bucy滤波器是一致的,且由此导出的高斯渐进贝叶斯滤波器与卡尔曼滤波器是一致的.最后利用一阶Taylor展开推导了滤波器在非线性高斯条件下的近似解表达式,并采用Monte Carlo方法给出了具体实现方法.通过若干仿真算例表明,新滤波器具有较高的精度,且在一定精度条件下的时间复杂度低于一般粒子滤波器.

Robust cascaded automatic cruise control of electric vehicles

This article focuses on automatic cruise control for electrically driven vehicles. The objective is to track a given vehicle‐velocity profile. For this type of application, the so‐called wheel slip plays a key role, as it is a measure for the force transmitted from the wheel to the road. Conventional wheel‐ slip controllers are usually activated if the absolute value of the slip exceeds pre‐assumed thresholds. Furthermore, it is distinguished between a braking and acceleration maneuver using separately designed and implemented controllers. In contrast, the proposed concept requires neither an activation strategy for the slip controller nor a distinction between braking and acceleration. The cascaded control structure is based upon adaptive‐gains super twisting sliding‐mode algorithm, and the friction force estimator is realized as a second‐order sliding‐mode observer with constant gains. The effectiveness and robustness of the proposed concept are demonstrated in numerical simulations using a complex multibody vehicle model. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
