Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If manual adjustment of energy recovery intensity levels is used, then the system structure remains simple, but the adaptability to real-time road conditions deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The system collects historical deceleration data from multiple vehicles through vehicle networking modules, transmits this data to a cloud platform for analysis, and uses the analyzed results to automatically adjust energy recovery intensity. This closed-loop feedback mechanism enables the system to adapt to real-time road conditions without requiring complex manual adjustments by users.
Solution Approach 2:
A cloud platform serves as an intermediary between vehicles and the energy recovery control system. The cloud platform receives historical deceleration data from multiple vehicles, performs centralized analysis to determine optimal target deceleration values, and transmits control instructions back to individual vehicles. This intermediary approach distributes system complexity from individual vehicles to the cloud infrastructure.
2Productivity
If fixed energy recovery intensity levels are used, then the control logic remains simple, but the braking energy recovery efficiency deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The energy recovery intensity is dynamically adjusted based on real-time road conditions and historical deceleration data rather than using fixed intensity levels. The system continuously updates the target deceleration value according to actual driving scenarios, enabling optimal braking energy recovery efficiency across varying road conditions while maintaining automated control.
Solution Approach 2:
The system changes the deceleration parameter dynamically by analyzing historical deceleration data from multiple vehicles and adjusting the target deceleration value according to different road conditions. This parameter adjustment enables the system to optimize braking energy recovery efficiency for various driving scenarios without requiring complex mechanical modifications.
3Productivity
If automated target deceleration control is implemented, then the braking energy recovery efficiency improves, but the frequency of brake pedal use increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary analysis of historical deceleration data from multiple vehicles before actual braking occurs. By pre-determining the optimal target deceleration value based on accumulated historical data and road conditions, the system prepares the energy recovery mechanism in advance, enabling smoother braking operations that reduce the need for additional brake pedal inputs by the driver.
