A control system for a vehicle includes wheel slip control loop including a wheel slip controller configured to control wheel slip based on wheel speed measured at one or more wheels of the vehicle. A wheel flare control loop includes a wheel flare controller configured to control wheel flare based on transmission output speed at an output of a transmission of the vehicle. A controller is configured to select one of the wheel slip controller to control the wheel slip and the wheel flare controller to control the wheel flare during operation of the vehicle.

A controller is provided for a vehicle having front and rear axles, each axle having two wheels, and first and second propulsion units. The controller controls the first and second propulsion units to generate a combined torque with reference to a total requested torque. The controller is configured to: receive a torque request signal; receive traction signals indicating available traction at at least one wheel; determine a traction torque range defined by a maximum and minimum torque for at least one of the at least first or second propulsion units in dependence on one or more of the traction signals; determine a proposed distribution of torque between each of the at least first and second propulsion units with reference to the total requested torque; and determine a proposed torque to be generated by each of the at least first and second propulsion units based on the proposed distribution of torque.

A method for controlling wheel slip of a vehicle includes obtaining operation state information of a driving system, determining the speed of a backlash component between a drive apparatus and a drive wheel of the vehicle based on the obtained operation state information of the driving system, determining a reference speed for controlling wheel slip, determining a control input value for controlling the wheel slip based on a driving system speed, the speed of the backlash component, and the reference speed, using the control input value to determine whether wheel slip occurs, determining a torque correction amount based on the control input value when it is determined that wheel slip has occurred, and correcting a torque command of the drive apparatus according to the torque correction amount.

A predictive traction control system may include: a road surface conditions information providing unit mounted on a vehicle driven by a driving motor, to detect and output an upstream road surface condition in a travelling direction of the vehicle; and a predictive control unit electrically connected to the road surface conditions information providing unit, determining an entry or release of the predictive traction control using information on road surface conditions input from the road surface conditions information providing unit, and calculating target driving motor speed for controlling the driving motor and transmitting the same.

A drive control apparatus is applied to a drive system that is mounted to a vehicle, drives wheels of the vehicle by a motor, and brakes the wheels by a brake apparatus. The drive control apparatus determines a road-surface state of a travel road of the vehicle. The drive control apparatus suppresses slipping of the vehicle by correcting a drive torque by correcting at least either of a motor torque and a brake torque. When determined that the drive torque is to be corrected, the drive control apparatus adjusts a correction amount of the drive torque by adjusting the motor torque with higher priority than the brake torque in response to be determined that the road-surface state is rough.

An electric vehicle according to an example of the present application includes a battery, a regenerative brake, a friction brake, and a controller. The regenerative brake imparts regenerative braking torque to drive wheels. The friction brake imparts frictional braking torque to the drive wheels and non-drive wheels. The controller execute a slip control when the slip of the drive wheels is expected. The controller controls, during the execution of slip control, the regenerative and the friction brakes so that; the total of the frictional and the regenerative braking torque imparted to the drive wheels is less than or equal to upper limit torque set within a range that the drive wheels do not slip; the power of the regenerative power generation is not to exceed an acceptable charging power set according to a state of charge of the battery; and the regenerative braking torque is smaller than the regenerative braking torque before the start of the slip control.

A vehicle control system is configured to, when anti-skid control is started in a situation in which driving support control is being executed, execute a specific process for making a stop condition of the anti-skid control difficult to be satisfied as compared to when the driving support control is not being executed.

A method for controlling a torque of at least one wheel of a mobile platform. The method includes: providing at least one current slip value of the wheel and at least one current wheel acceleration of the wheel as input values; providing a trained radial basis function network designed to determine, by means of the input values, at least one torque change as an output value for control of the at least one wheel; and determining a current torque change, by means of the trained radial basis function network and the provided input values, for control of the torque.

A computer implemented method for controlling at least one driven and/or braked wheel of a heavy-duty vehicle. The method includes obtaining a motion request indicative of a desired longitudinal acceleration and/or longitudinal force associated with the vehicle, and configuring a wheel slip limit value indicative of a maximum allowable wheel slip by the at least one driven and/or braked wheel at a nominal value, and increasing the wheel slip limit value from the nominal value to a boost wheel slip value in response to detecting a boost signal, as well as controlling the at least one driven and/or braked wheel in dependence of the motion request and subject to the wheel slip limit value.

An antilock control method for a braking system of a vehicle has at least the following steps: upon the presence of a brake request signal, outputting a brake control signal and building up a brake pressure by a braking medium at a wheel brake of a vehicle wheel, measuring a wheel speed of the vehicle wheel to be braked, and determining a wheel slip of the vehicle wheel, upon meeting a first traction criterion or a locking tendency of the vehicle wheel, activating a wheel drive unit and applying a wheel drive torque on the vehicle wheel to increase the wheel circumferential velocity and to reduce the wheel slip until a second traction criterion is met. The brake force introduced in the wheel brake is controlled as a function of the wheel slip by releasing the brake pressure upon satisfying a first traction criterion.
