Nowadays, mobility represents a key sector to achieve the goal of carbon neutrality. Indeed, development hybrid powertrains is contributing reduction in environmental impact vehicles. One most promising energy-saving solutions regenerative braking, which enables deceleration while recovering energy, otherwise wasted. Even though much scientific community effort has been addressed optimization t...

The anti-lock braking systems installed on vehicles for safe and effective braking, are high-order nonlinear and timevariant. Using fuzzy logic controllers increase efficiency of such systems, but impose a high computational complexity as well. The main concept introduced by this paper is reducing computational complexity of fuzzy controllers by deploying problem-solution data structure. Unlike...

Anti-lock braking systems (ABS) are safety and control devices implemented in ground vehicles that prevent the wheel lock-up during panic braking. The existing ABS controls have the ability to regulate the level of pressure to optimally maintain the wheel slip within the vehicle stability range. However, the ABS shows strong nonlinear characteristics in which the vehicles equipped with the exis...

This paper presents a supercapacitor (SC) module connected in parallel with fuel cell (FC) stack to supply a high-performance Z-Source Inverter (HP-ZSI) feeding a three phase induction motor for hybrid electric vehicles applications. The supercapacitor is connected between the input diode and the bidirectional switch of the highperformance ZSI topology. The indirect field-oriented control (IFOC...

Contained within this paper is a discussion into the modelling and control of the electrical architecture for a HEV. Two configurations of electrical architecture are discussed; a system in which the bus voltage is allowed to vary during vehicle acceleration and regenerative braking and secondly, a fixed bus voltage system in which the voltage is held constant by the inclusion of a bi-direction...
