Trends such as downsizing and downspeeding of internal combustion engines (ICE) shift the excitation spectrum automotive powertrains by ICE torque leading to demanding requirements for passive vibration reduction measures. Hybrid electric vehicles (HEV) offer a possibility implement active using traction machine (ETM). This paper proposes model predictive controller (MPC) plug-in parallel HEV powertrain with downsized 2-cylinder engine. Both time frequency domain variants have been...
This paper proposes a method for the compensation of harmonic disturbances with parametrically varying frequencies linear time-invariant (LTI) plants. Torsional oscillations arising from cyclic irregularity is an inherent problem internal combustion engine (ICE) powered automotive powertrains. The ICE due to its process generates periodic whose frequency varies operating speed. Furthermore, amplitude oscillatory torque depends on demanded set-point and speed operation. objective controller...
Model predictive control (MPC) based approaches are being increasingly employed for solving the Energy Management (EM) problem of Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEV). uncertainty, un-modelled disturbances and uncertainties due to driver behavior in real-world driving necessitate that extend nominal MPC.
