A system for supervisory control for eAWD and eLSD in a motor vehicle includes a control module, and sensors and actuators disposed on the motor vehicle. The sensors measure real-time motor vehicle data, and the actuators alter behavior of the motor vehicle. The control module receives the real-time data; receives one or more driver inputs to the motor vehicle; determines a status of a body of the motor vehicle; determines a status of axles of the motor vehicle; determines a status of each wheel of the motor vehicle; and generates a control signal to the actuators from the driver inputs and the body, axle, and wheel statuses. The control module also exercises supervisory control by actively adjusting constraints on the control signal to each of the actuators where actively adjusting constraints on the control signal alters boundaries of control actions in response to the one or more driver inputs.

Systems and methods provide a drive system control architecture that comprises a seamless interface between original equipment manufacturer (OEM) vehicle systems or components (e.g., accelerator pedal, brake pedal, accessory components, etc.) and third-party (or non-OEM) vehicle systems or components (e.g., motor/generator (MG) and inverter systems, fuel cell and battery systems, transmission, etc.). A universal interface implemented in a vehicle may receive a request for a specified amount of torque from one or more components of a first set of vehicle components, and may determine a balance between one or more components of a second set of vehicle components for delivering the specified amount of torque. The universal interface may then instruct the one or more components of the second set of vehicle components to deliver a commensurate portion of the specified amount of torque.

Some embodiments of the present invention provide a control system configured to control a driveline of a motor vehicle to operate in a selected one of a plurality of configurations, the system being configured to receive a signal indicative of a location of the vehicle, the system being configured to cause the driveline to operate in a configuration selected in dependence at least in part on the signal indicative of the location of the vehicle.

An apparatus for an electrically powered terrestrial vehicle applies electrical energy to front wheels and to rear wheels. A control system receives desired acceleration inputs and provides target torque requirements to a plurality of adaptive field-oriented motor control circuits. One or more three-phase alternating current synchronous motors receive voltage magnitude and voltage frequency to generate torque, which is applied through a reduction gear. One motor only may be powered during certain modes of operation.

An integrated chassis control method to improve driving stability may include mountain-road integrated chassis control allowing, when a road on which a vehicle drives is checked to be the route of a mountain road by an integrated chassis controller, electronic control suspension (ECS) damping force and all wheel drive (AWD) driving force distribution to be controlled in a different manner according to uphill and downhill roads due to a difference of elevation of the mountain road.

A method for stabilizing a vehicle (100) in which the vehicle (100) has a roll stabilizer (120), which is designed to stabilize a first axle (101) and a second axle (102) as a function of a roll torque distribution between the first axle (101) and the second axle (102). The method comprises a step of determining a sideslip angle index from a difference between a transverse acceleration calculated from a yaw rate of the vehicle (100) and a speed of the vehicle (100), and a detected transverse acceleration of the vehicle (100). The sideslip angle index is related to a sideslip angle of the vehicle (100). The method also comprises a step of generating a control signal (160) using the sideslip angle index. The control signal (160) is suitable for adjusting the roll torque distribution of the roll stabilizer (120) as a function of the determined sideslip angle index.

Disclosed is a bidirectional transmission control system for a vehicle. A road surface recognition apparatus collects an image of a road surface on which a vehicle drives currently, and forwards, after recognizing the type of the road surface on which the vehicle drives currently according to the image of the road surface, a corresponding first terrain mode request signal to an all-terrain controller through a signal transfer apparatus, so as to start a corresponding terrain mode in an all-terrain adaptive mode. In addition, the all-terrain controller forwards execution information about the terrain mode to the road surface recognition apparatus through the signal transfer apparatus, so as to implement state feedback of the terrain mode currently executed. The inconsistency of information transmission rates between an all-terrain control system of a vehicle and an input system can be coordinated, thereby aiding in real-time switching of various terrain modes.

Overload protection systems and methods are provided for controlling the amount of energy delivered to the drivetrain of work vehicles including axles, transmission, and other components thereof including for vehicles using power boost. A sensor in operative communication with a primary power equipment unit driving a transmission of a work vehicle generates a torque signal representative of torque delivered to the transmission by the primary power equipment unit. The overload protection method and system uses the torque signal to control the torque delivered to the transmission of a work vehicle by the primary power equipment unit.

A powertrain system may determine a power distribution for a set of power sources of a vehicle. The powertrain system may be coupled to a perception system that may provide perception data indicating a scenario, situation, or environment that has been encountered by the vehicle. The powertrain system may also receive health values. The powertrain system may include machine learning model that may generate the power distribution based on one or more of the perception data, the health values, and a power request.
