A method for controlling a hybrid electric vehicle includes: connecting a first motor directly connected to an engine to a second motor directly connected to a transmission input terminal through a dual mass flywheel; determining a target angular acceleration of the first motor according to a gear shifting progress rate so that an angular acceleration of the first motor follows a target angular acceleration of the transmission input terminal when a gearshift is performed in the transmission; and controlling a torque of the first motor based on the target angular acceleration of the first motor.

A control apparatus for a motor generator that is connected to an internal combustion engine. The control apparatus estimates an estimated torque pulsation that is an estimation value of torque pulsation of the internal combustion engine. The control apparatus controls the motor generator to reduce generated power and suppress decrease in a rotation speed of the internal combustion engine, when a negative torque that obstructs rotation of the internal combustion engine is generated in the estimated torque pulsation of the internal combustion engine.

An apparatus and a method estimate backlash and compliance. The apparatus and the method are configured to distinguish and determine the backlash and the compliance occurring in a vehicle driving system. The method includes providing information related to a driving system model between a motor and a driving wheel for driving a vehicle to a controller, determining a compliance speed, by the controller, by using the information related to the driving system model based on vehicle driving information acquired by a driving information detector while the vehicle is driven, and determining a backlash speed, by the controller, by subtracting the determined compliance speed from an overall speed difference that is a difference between a motor speed and a driving wheel speed. The apparatus is configured to perform the method.

When a rotational fluctuation NEeng of an engine is equal to or larger than a first threshold NEref1, a rotational fluctuation NEmg1 of a motor MG1 that is calculated at a timing preceding the rotational fluctuation NEeng of the engine by 180 degrees in terms of a rotational angle of a crankshaft is compared with a second threshold NEref2. When the rotational fluctuation NEmg1 is equal to or larger than the second threshold NEref2, it is determined that the rotational fluctuation NEeng of the engine has reached a value equal to or larger than a threshold NEref due to a disturbance such as running on a bad road or the like, and a misfire counter is maintained. When the rotational fluctuation NEmg1 is smaller than the second threshold NEref2, it is determined that a misfire may be occurring in at least one of cylinders of the engine, and the misfire counter is incremented.

An eco-friendly vehicle and a launch control method for an eco-friendly vehicle reduces an unpleasant secondary launch effect based on a gear alignment state of a transmission in a specific situation. The launch control method includes: determining a first condition for enabling a preset stop control when the first condition is satisfied; turning off a control for generating a creep torque of a motor when a brake is released; controlling a transmission in an open state and enabling the control for generating the creep torque; and when a second condition for revolutions per minute (RPM) of the motor is satisfied, controlling the transmission in a lock state through a slip state.

The invention relates to a device for reducing a vibration of a vehicle component of a vehicle, the vehicle comprising at least one electric drive machine. The device is designed to determine vibration data relating to the vibration of the vehicle component and, based on the vibration data, to determine a compensation torque in order to reduce the vibration of the vehicle component. The device is also designed to cause the drive machine to provide a total torque which comprises a driving mode torque which is to be provided for the driving mode of the vehicle and which is overlaid with the compensation torque.
