A Cooperative Control Strategy for a Hydraulic Regenerative Braking System Based on Chassis Domain Control

In order to solve the problems of wheel locking and loss of vehicle control due to understeering or oversteering during the braking energy-recovery process of the hydraulic regenerative braking system (HRBS), aiming at the characteristics of chassis domain control that can realize coordinated work among various chassis systems, a cooperative control strategy of HRBS based on chassis domain control was proposed. Firstly, a HRBS test bench was built, and the accuracy of the simulation model was verified by comparing it with the test. Next, the proposed cooperative control strategy was designed, which coordinates the wheel anti-lock actuation system (WAAS) to adjust the wheel cylinder pressure to solve the wheel locking problem of HRBS in the process of braking energy recovery and coordinate the vehicle anti-loss control actuation system (VACAS) to generate a yaw compensation moment to solve the vehicle loss of the control problem of HRBS in the process of braking energy recovery by detecting the wheel slip ratio, yaw rate and sideslip angle. Finally, the established control strategy was verified through the co-simulation of Carsim and Matlab software, and the results showed that the control strategy proposed in this paper could not only avoid wheel locking and loss of vehicle control during turning braking on low-adhesion roads, but also improve the energy-recovery efficiency by 29.64% compared with a vehicle that only controls the slip ratio.
