Hybrid vehicle techniques have been widely studied recently because of their potential to
significantly improve the fuel economy and drivability of future ground vehicles. Due to the …

Due to the complex nature of hybrid electric vehicles, control strategies based on
engineering intuition frequently fail to achieve satisfactory overall system efficiency. This …

Improved fuel consumption and lower emissions are two of the key objectives for future
transportation. Hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), in which two or more power systems are …

The power management control system development and vehicle test results for a medium-
duty hybrid electric truck are reported in this paper. The design procedure adopted is a …

A general formulation of the instantaneous power split strategy between an IC engine and
an electric machine in a charge-sustaining hybrid-electric vehicle is given. It is based on the …

Hybrid electric vehicles provide promising alternatives to conventional engine-powered
vehicles with better fuel economy and less emission. Realization of these benefits depends …

Hybrid electric vehicles (HEV), plug-in HEV (PHEV) need an energy management system
(EMS) to ensure good fuel economy while maintaining battery state-of-charge (SOC) within …

In this paper, a model-based strategy for the real-time load control of parallel hybrid vehicles
is presented. The aim is to develop a fuel-optimal control which is not relying on the a priori …

The control strategy presented and evaluated was developed for a parallel hybrid vehicle
designed for the FutureTruck 2000 competition. The control strategy implemented focuses …

Control strategies for hybrid-electric vehicles generally target several simultaneous
objectives. The primary one is the minimization of the vehicle fuel consumption, while also …
