Regenerative braking is the key to achieve efficient use of energy and extend driving range in pure electric vehicles. This study proposes a new predictive control method integrating adaptive cubic exponential prediction dynamic programming address problem recovery during regular process four-wheel The considers characteristics an electro-hydraulic combined system. adopted predict vehicle veloc...

The conventional vehicles in the past had consisted of mechanical differential which converts the engine torque in to two directions. Due to the introduction of electric vehicle the vehicle propulsion system has changed from combustion engine to electric motor. Since the concept of differential is a must have component to drive a vehicle, it is still used in electric vehicles as well. Common me...

The series Hybrid-Electric Drive (HED) architecture brings a significant range of potential benefits to military ground platforms. Electric-drive wheeled vehicles can feature electric traction motors in a conventional driveline, but also offer potential for motor incorporation into the axle or the wheel hub. The implementation of in-wheel hub drives presents challenges both in their design and ...

What does the invention do? This invention presents a modular system of units that can drive, brake, steer and suspend an electric vehicle. These units are also referred to as “Robot Wheels” because they are autonomous elements that can be connected to any electric vehicle chassis. Each unit (Fig.1) includes an electric motor, a steering element, a suspension arm and a connector. The system fit...
