Research on Electro-Mechanical Braking System Control of EV Based on Maximum Energy Recovery Strategy

With the analysis of influence factors on regenerative braking in electro-mechanical braking system, and considering the power battery charging characteristics, a regenerative braking system control strategy for electric vehicle is researched in this paper. The models of the motor and the whole vehicle are built in AMESim. The control effects and the braking force distribution on front and rear wheels of the control strategy in an FTP-72 driving cycle are simulated and analyzed. The simulation results show that the control strategy could be utilized in the 4WD electric vehicles. The ideal braking force distribution on front and rear wheels and the high amount of recovery energy could be achieved.
