A control apparatus for a vehicle that has a power source and a continuously variable transmission. If a backlash-reducing control execution flag is on, a central control section utilizes an inertia torque produced during a backlash-reducing control as a part of a transient surge-reducing control that follows the backlash-reducing control, by setting at least one of a control duration and a control torque of the transient surge-reducing control to a value that is less than the control duration or torque set for an ordinary transient surge-reducing control.

The invention relates to a dual-motor energy-saving anti-backlash control method and belongs to the technical field of electromechanical control. A nonlinear dual-motor system is changed into an approximate linear system by applying a bias torque and rotating speed negative feedback; in addition, a real-time bias torque is designed to save energy to the greatest extent on the basis of ensuring good tracking effect.

In order to solve the design problems of the dual-motor system about bias torque parameters and a proportion integration differentiation (PID) controller parameters, a plurality of controller parameters are simultaneously optimized by adopting a particle swarm algorithm. By adopting the dual-motor energy-saving anti-backlash control method, the problem about an optimization design of the controller of the dual-motor drive system is solved, and meanwhile, the effects of quick tracking of an input signal by the system, a small steady state error, synchronization of double motors, backlash removal and reduction of energy consumption are ensured.
