[0084] In the embodiments of the present application, a lateral dynamics model of the corner module vehicle is constructed in advance, which can be shown as formula 1:

[0086] wherein, is an uncertain parameter representing the possible boundary of uncertainty; is a control input representing an externally applied control force; is a velocity vector; is an acceleration vector; M0 represents the inertia of the vehicle in the lateral and yaw directions; C0 represents the force generated by the speed and rotational motion of the vehicle during turning; G0 represents the gravity acting on the vehicle in the vertical direction.

[0087] It should be noted that, considering the strong nonlinearity and complexity of the vehicle system, the vehicle dynamics model derived based on assumptions cannot completely and accurately describe the dynamic behavior of the actual vehicle. For example, the matrix in formula 1 not only includes model parameters, but also covers uncertain factors such as crosswind influence and model error. Similarly, the system parameters in the matrix , such as vehicle weight, moment of inertia of the vehicle around the z-axis of the center of mass, front tire cornering stiffness, rear tire cornering stiffness, etc., are not only difficult to accurately estimate, but also often change over time. Therefore, the matrix in the model is decomposed into a nominal part and a time-varying uncertainty part , and the decomposed parameter matrix can be represented as formula 2:

[0092] wherein, , and the symbol represents the Moore-Penrose generalized inverse of a matrix.

[0093] S203, an uncertainty control model is constructed, and the uncertainty control model is a part of the lateral dynamics model related to the uncertain parameters.

[0094] It should be noted that, since the angular module vehicle in actual driving will inevitably exist uncertainty , and the initial state of the vehicle may not satisfy the constraint condition, it is necessary to construct an adaptive robust control for the uncertainty and initial error of the system.

[0095] In the embodiments of the present application, the uncertainty control model includes an initial error control model and a robust control model .

[0096] Optionally, it is assumed that each , is full rank, that is, invertible. If , there is a constant which may be unknown, and for each , : wherein, represents the minimum eigenvalue of the matrix . It should be noted that this assumption limits the influence of the uncertainty on within a certain one-way limit, and the control direction will not change due to the parameter disturbance of . In the case where there is no uncertainty, , then , and , so may be selected.

[0097] In the embodiments of the present application, the initial error control model can be as shown in equation 4:

[0101] equation 5

[0102] where denotes the two-norm of the matrix and equation 6 holds:

[0103] equation 6

[0104] Optionally, based on equation 5 and equation 6 above, for each , a linear decomposition can be made with respect to and there exists a function such that equation 7 holds:

[0105] equation 7

[0106] It is shown that the multi-source uncertainty of the vehicle system can be described by a function and the function is a parameterization of the worst-case effect of the uncertainty on the system. The vector is related to the boundary of the uncertainty where , the equation can be converted to equation 8:

[0107] equation 8

[0108] where , is an unknown scalar constant. In the actual operation of the vehicle, the exact value of the uncertainty boundary is difficult to obtain and the vector is unknown. Therefore, in order to estimate , a leakage-type adaptive law is constructed based on the adaptive parameter vector : where is a scalar constant and the initial value is a strictly positive value.

[0109] In the embodiments of the present application, the robust control model may be shown as formula 9-11:

[0110] (formula 9)

[0111] (formula 10)

[0112] (formula 11)

[0113] wherein, is a scalar constant. Let , wherein represents the estimation error of .

[0114] Optionally, under the above conditions, can guarantee satisfy the uniform boundedness and the uniform ultimate boundedness. The uniform boundedness is that for any , there is a , such that when , for all , there is always ; the uniform ultimate boundedness is that for any , if , there is a , such that for any , when , there is , wherein .

[0115] Optionally, the determination process of the nominal control model and the uncertainty control model related to the longitudinal vehicle speed control is the same as the determination process of the nominal control model and the uncertainty control model described above.

[0116] S204, input the driving state data to the nominal control model and the uncertainty control model, and determine the yaw moment control parameter.

[0117] In the embodiments of the present application, the nominal control model and the uncertainty control model can be shown as formula 12:

[0118] (formula 12)

[0119] wherein, is related to the uncertainty boundary.

[0120] In the embodiment of the present application, the driving state data is input into formula 12 to determine the yaw moment control parameter, and the driving state data is input into the longitudinal vehicle speed control related nominal control model and uncertainty control model to determine the longitudinal vehicle speed control parameter.

[0121] S205, based on the yaw moment control parameter and the rear wheel steering control parameter, performing stability collaborative control on the diagonal module vehicle.

[0122] In the embodiment of the present application, based on the yaw moment control parameter, the torque control parameter for torque control of the diagonal module vehicle is determined, so that the vehicle of the diagonal module vehicle is controlled according to the torque control parameter; and the diagonal module vehicle is controlled based on the rear wheel steering control parameter.

[0123] Optionally, the torque control parameter for torque control of the diagonal module vehicle can be determined according to the yaw moment control parameter; or the torque control parameter for torque control of the diagonal module vehicle can be determined according to the yaw moment control parameter and the rear wheel steering control parameter.

[0124] In the above-mentioned distributed diagonal module electric drive vehicle yaw stability robust collaborative control method, the driving state data of the diagonal module vehicle is obtained; a nominal control model is constructed according to the lateral stability constraint condition and the lateral dynamics model, and the nominal control model is the part related to the determined parameter in the lateral dynamics model, wherein the target of the lateral stability constraint condition is that the error of the yaw angular velocity and the error of the lateral velocity tend to zero; an uncertainty control model is constructed, and the uncertainty control model is the part related to the uncertain parameter in the lateral dynamics model; the driving state data is input into the nominal control model and the uncertainty control model to determine the yaw moment control parameter; and based on the yaw moment control parameter and the rear wheel steering control parameter, the stability collaborative control is performed on the diagonal module vehicle. The yaw moment control parameter is determined in combination with the uncertain part in the vehicle driving state, which improves the robustness when dealing with the vehicle parameter uncertainty and external disturbance, effectively reduces the yaw angular velocity error and the mass center side slip angle, and in addition, while the control torque is applied to the four wheels of the vehicle, the active rear wheel steering control adjusts the rear wheel angle in real time to ensure that the vehicle maintains a steady state turning state during turning, effectively reduces the error of the yaw angular velocity and the lateral velocity, and improves the yaw stability of the vehicle.

[0125] In one embodiment, before S202, as shown in Figure 3 the above-mentioned distributed diagonal module electric drive vehicle yaw stability robust collaborative control method further comprises:

[0126] S206, taking the front wheel steering linear two-degree-of-freedom vehicle model as a reference model.

[0127] It should be noted that in the vehicle lateral stability analysis and control, the yaw rate and the mass center side slip angle are the key dynamic indexes for evaluating the vehicle lateral stability, the front wheel steering linear two-degree-of-freedom vehicle model can accurately represent the vehicle lateral dynamic behavior, and reveal the time-varying characteristics of the yaw rate and the mass center side slip angle under dynamic working conditions. Therefore, the front wheel steering two-degree-of-freedom vehicle model is selected as a reference model to calculate the vehicle steady-state expected value, and the dynamic equation thereof is shown in formula 13:

[0128] (Formula 13)

[0129] wherein, is the vehicle yaw rate, is the mass center side slip angle.

[0130] In the embodiment of the present application, in order to ensure that the steady-state gain of the yaw rate remains stable and close to the ideal value under various working conditions, the expected value is defined by the steady-state response of the reference model, and the expression of the steady-state yaw rate is shown in formula 14:

[0131] (Formula 14)

[0132] wherein, K is a stability factor, and specifically: .

[0133] Considering that the vehicle yaw rate is limited by the tire state and the adhesion constraint of the actual driving surface, the expression of the expected yaw rate is shown in formula 15 after the steady-state yaw rate is corrected:

[0134] (Formula 15)

[0135] wherein, c is a safety factor, and is usually taken as 0.85. In the turning process of the vehicle, the mass center side slip angle is an important index for representing the vehicle lateral stability. A smaller mass center side slip angle usually means that the vehicle yaw stability is higher, and at the same time indicates that the coincidence degree of the actual driving trajectory and the expected trajectory is higher. Therefore, the expected mass center side slip angle at the vehicle mass center is assumed to be: The four-wheel steering two-degree-of-freedom vehicle dynamic model in the Lagrange form is adopted as the control model in the embodiment of the present application, and the state variable is defined as: Therefore, the expected lateral velocity is taken as one of the reference expected values. According to the definition of the vehicle mass center side slip angle: , the expected lateral velocity is:

[0136] S207, based on the reference model, the expected value of the yaw rate and the expected value of the lateral velocity, the lateral stability constraint condition is determined.

[0137] In the embodiments of the present application, the control target of the lateral stability constraint condition is that the error between the actual value and the expected value of the vehicle yaw rate and lateral velocity tends to zero, and the error can be specifically expressed as formula 16:

[0138] (Formula 16)

[0139] wherein, is the error between the actual value and the expected value of the lateral velocity, is the error between the actual value and the expected value of the yaw rate, is the actual value of the lateral velocity, is the expected value of the lateral velocity, is the actual value of the yaw rate, is the expected value of the yaw rate. The equation constraint satisfying the control target is established based on the above error, which is used as the solution condition of the control input. In order to ensure the yaw stability of the vehicle in the limit condition, that is, when , the yaw stability constraint as formula 17 is applied to the vehicle:

[0140] (Formula 17)

[0141] wherein, is a parameter for adjusting the convergence speed, is a parameter satisfying the initial condition, which is used to ensure that the system can smoothly transition to the control process.

[0142] Further, formula 17 can be converted into a matrix form as follows: wherein, , the matrix form is recorded as the first order form of the yaw stability equation constraint, and the second order form of the equation constraint can be expressed as: wherein .

[0143] In the above embodiments, the reference model is first constructed, and then the lateral stability constraint condition is obtained according to the reference model, which improves the accuracy of the lateral stability constraint condition compared with the constraint condition between and.

[0144] In one embodiment, an implementation of S205 is provided, as shown in Figure 4 the above "stability collaborative control of the corner module vehicle based on the yaw moment control parameter and the rear wheel steering control parameter" includes:

[0145] S301, determining the longitudinal vehicle speed control parameter according to the longitudinal vehicle speed constraint condition and the longitudinal dynamics model.

[0146] In the embodiments of the present application, the longitudinal dynamics of the vehicle is affected by a number of nonlinear factors, among which the quadratic air resistance and the rolling resistance are the most important ones. To simplify the longitudinal dynamics model of the vehicle, the following assumptions are made: (1) the effects of lateral and vertical motions on the longitudinal dynamics are ignored; (2) the vehicle is assumed to be symmetrical and the load transfer between the front and rear axles is not considered; (3) no slip is assumed to exist between the tires and the road surface; and (4) the vehicle is assumed to travel on a flat road surface with a slope of zero.

[0147] Under the above assumptions, the longitudinal force of the vehicle can be divided into four main parts: the total driving / braking force , the air resistance , and the rolling resistance . The longitudinal dynamics equation of the vehicle is shown in Equation 18:

[0148] (Equation 18)

[0149] The total longitudinal driving / braking force of the vehicle is represented as shown in Equation 19:

[0150] (Equation 19)

[0151] wherein, is the driving / braking torque of the four wheels, wherein a positive value represents a driving torque and a negative value represents a braking torque; is the transmission efficiency; is the wheel transmission ratio of the in-wheel motor; is the effective radius of the wheel. Only the component of the air resistance in the driving direction is considered in the longitudinal dynamics of the vehicle, which is described by Equation 20:

[0152] (Equation 20)

[0153] wherein, is the air resistance coefficient, is the windward area, is the vehicle speed, is the air density. The rolling resistance is represented by a model that is proportional to the total mass of the vehicle: wherein g is the gravitational acceleration and f is the rolling resistance coefficient of the wheel.

[0154] By combining Equations 18-20, the longitudinal dynamics model of the vehicle is represented as: .

[0155] In the embodiments of the present application, the longitudinal dynamics model is converted into the form of the Lagrange dynamics equation as shown in Equation 21:

[0156] (Equation 21)

[0157] wherein, is an uncertain parameter representing the boundary of uncertainty; is a control input representing the externally applied control force; is a velocity vector; is an acceleration vector; M1 represents the inertia of the vehicle in the lateral and yaw directions; C1 represents the forces generated by the speed and rotational motion of the vehicle during cornering; G1 represents the gravitational force acting on the vehicle in the vertical direction.

[0158] In the embodiment of the present application, when the cooperative control is involved, the four-wheel torque is redistributed, which can cause significant fluctuations in the actual driving speed of the vehicle. In order to make the vehicle follow the expected longitudinal speed, the equation constraint of formula 22 is imposed on the longitudinal dynamics model of the vehicle:

[0159] (Formula 22)

[0160] wherein, v x is the longitudinal speed, x t is the longitudinal target speed, is a parameter satisfying the initial condition. Further, formula 6 can be converted into a first-order matrix form, wherein, , , and the derivative of the two sides of the first-order matrix with respect to time t is obtained, and the second-order matrix form of the longitudinal vehicle speed equation constraint is: wherein, .

[0161] In the embodiment, the longitudinal speed constraint condition is applied to the longitudinal dynamics model for solving, and the form state data is input into the longitudinal dynamics model to determine the longitudinal speed control parameter.

[0201] Table 1

[0202]

[0203] Exemplarily, Figures 9-14 The simulation results of key parameters for high-speed high adhesion double-lane-change working condition are shown in the entity diagram. In the high-speed high adhesion double-lane-change simulation working condition, the vehicle completes the double-lane-change operation at a speed of 100 km / h on a road surface with an adhesion coefficient of 0.8, which simulates the emergency behavior of the vehicle when driving at high speed on a dry asphalt road. Figures 9-11 The time-domain response curves of the yaw rate, the yaw rate error and the sideslip angle of the center of mass under different control strategies are shown respectively. These parameters are key dynamic indicators for representing the yaw stability of the vehicle. The simulation results show that the four control strategies can effectively track the expected values, and the yaw rate error and the sideslip angle of the center of mass are always controlled within a reasonable range. Figures 12-13 The control input of the vehicle, wherein the active rear wheel steering control strategy improves the stability of the vehicle by fine-tuning the rear wheel steering angle (the maximum steering angle is not more than 2°) at a small angle; the ARC control input coordinates the four-wheel torque to generate an additional yaw moment, and its response characteristic is smooth and the amplitude is reasonable (the four-wheel torque fluctuation range is controlled within ±500 N·m), which has good engineering realizability. Figure 14 The vehicle speed tracking curve in the figure shows that during the implementation of the yaw stability control process, the deviation between the actual vehicle speed and the target vehicle speed is always maintained within ±0.2 km / h, ensuring that the vehicle power performance does not appear significant loss.

[0204] Table 2 is the absolute maximum value and the root mean square value of the yaw stability indicators under different control strategies. These statistics provide an important basis for quantitatively evaluating the performance of each control strategy. From Figures 9-14 From the experimental data in Table 2 and Table 2, it can be seen that ARC can reduce the yaw rate error and the sideslip angle of the center of mass of the vehicle compared with SMC. This proves that the direct yaw moment control using ARC algorithm is more effective for vehicle yaw stability control. Further analysis shows that after the introduction of ARS and ARC for collaborative control, the system performance is further improved, and the absolute maximum value and the root mean square of the yaw rate error of the vehicle are reduced by 87.0%, 49.3%, 86.7% and 85.7%, 46.1%, 79.7% compared with the other three control strategies; the absolute maximum value and the root mean square of the sideslip angle of the center of mass are reduced by 46.6%, 40.7%, 43.8% and 43.5%, 31.2%, 34.4% respectively. These performance improvements reflect the superiority of the ARC+ARS collaborative control strategy.

[0205] Table 2

[0206]

[0207] From Figures 9-14As shown in Table 2, the experimental data demonstrates that ARC reduces the vehicle's yaw rate error and sideslip angle compared to SMC. This proves that direct yaw moment control using the ARC algorithm is more effective for vehicle yaw stability control. Further analysis shows that by introducing ARS and ARC for coordinated control, the system performance is further improved. The maximum absolute value and root mean square error of the vehicle's yaw rate error are reduced by 87.0%, 49.3%, and 86.7%, and 85.7%, 46.1%, and 79.7%, respectively, compared to the other three control strategies; the maximum absolute value and root mean square error of the sideslip angle are reduced by 46.6%, 40.7%, and 43.8%, and 43.5%, 31.2%, and 34.4%, respectively. These performance improvements demonstrate the superiority of the ARC+ARS coordinated control strategy.

[0208] The medium-speed low-adhesion condition simulates an emergency lane change scenario where a vehicle is traveling at a medium speed of 72 km / h on a wet and slippery road surface (road adhesion coefficient of 0.4). Figures 15-20 These are simulation results from a medium-speed, low-adhesion double-track-shifting test. Similar to the high-speed, high-adhesion test, Figures 15-17 The time-domain response curves of yaw rate, yaw rate error, and sideslip angle under different control strategies are presented. Simulation results show that the four control strategies can still effectively track the desired value under this condition, with the yaw rate error controlled within ±0.06 rad / s and the sideslip angle maintained within a safe range of ±0.06 rad. Figure 18 , 19 The corresponding control inputs are shown. Under this condition, the maximum steering angle of the active rear-wheel steering control strategy increases to 3°, but the torque amplitude of the four wheels of the ARC control strategy is reduced to within ±400 N·m, while still maintaining smooth response characteristics. Figure 20 The actual vehicle speed and the target vehicle speed are still within ±0.2 km / h, indicating that the vehicle's power performance is well maintained.

[0209] Table 3 lists the maximum absolute value and root mean square value of the yaw stability index under this operating condition. Data analysis shows that the ARC+ARS cooperative control strategy still exhibits the best performance: the maximum absolute value and root mean square value of the yaw rate error are reduced by 79.6%, 62.9%, and 80.3%, and 88.4%, 77.5%, and 88.9%, respectively, compared with other control strategies; the corresponding indices of the center of mass sideslip angle are reduced by 76.4%, 62.9%, and 19.6%, and 67.6%, 48.7%, and 15.2%, respectively. This result further verifies the adaptability and superiority of the ARC+ARS cooperative control strategy under different operating conditions.
