To extend the application range of the NMPC based local planner, the coupled nonlinear vehicle dynamics model is adopted based on the numerical analysis, which conversely requires much more discretization poits for acceptable accuracy. For better computation efficiency, Lagrange polynomials are used to discretize the vehicle dynamics model and objective function with less points and fine numerical accuracy. Furthermore, an adaptive strategy is designed to determine the order of Lagrange polynomials according to running state by numerical analysis of discretization error. Both acceleration effect and performance of the local planner designed by NMPC are validated by experimental tests under scenarios with multiple dynamical obstacles.

Based on the three-degree-of-freedom (3DOF) vehicle dynamic model and the preview tracking error model, model predictive control (MPC) theory is adopted to design the speed-varying vehicle path-tracking controller. Then, the quadratic programming (QP) method is used to solve the objective function with constraints, which calculates the steering angle to control the vehicle track the reference path. In addition, a PID speed controller is designed to calculate the torque of each wheel to track the desired speed. Finally, according to the yaw rate error and the vehicle slip angle error, a yaw moment stability controller based on the fuzzy logic control theory is designed to balance the vehicle stability and motility.

The objective of this study is to compare the energy economy and single-charge driving range of BEVs using the different test methods, the full depleting test (e.g., multi cycle test (MCT), short multi cycle test, short multi cycle test plus) and partial depleting test (e.g., short process test (SPT)), with the aim of reducing the testing time on the chassis dynamometer. As a result of testing with three BEVs with different battery capacities, the test duration on the chassis dynamometer could be reduced by up to 85% compared to the MCT that is authorized test method by government. Each test has different repeatability, and SPT has a higher deviation from the MCT test results than other test methods.

Motivated by this, we developed an electric vehicle simulator that includes an integrated thermal management system and validated it by comparing with the real experimental data, and we have demonstrated the reliability of the developed model.

In modern times, various control schemes, such as model predictive controls, h-infinity controls, and relative controls, have been extensively investigated for the supervisors. However, in contrast, research concerning the coordinator component has not received much attention, resulting in relatively low research numbers. Most of the research has focused on the utilization of VDC coordinators that decide tire forces solely in proportion to corrective yaw moments. This approach leads to significant errors due to assumptions that do not account for the nonlinear characteristics of tires. In this research analysis, a coordinator considering nonlinear tire characteristics, such as the friction ellipse effect is presented.
