Abstract: To improve the comprehensive performance of the distributed wheel-side four-wheel-drive electric bus, the problem of optimal distribution of the driving torque of the four wheel-side motors is studied. Aiming at the poor economy and failure of switching control due to the consideration of both straight and steering conditions, this paper proposes a fuzzy yaw moment control strategy based on the golden section search algorithm. Under full working conditions, according to the efficiency characteristics of the front and rear axle drive motors, the golden section search algorithm is used to determine the best front and rear axle motor torque distribution coefficient K to distribute the front and rear axle motor torques. Given the stability problems existing in the steering conditions, based on the optimal torque distribution of the front and rear axles, fuzzy control is used to calculate the expected yaw moment, and the left and right wheel torques are adjusted in real time. The simulation is carried out through TruckSim and MATLAB/Simulink, and a hardware-in-the-loop platform is built for experimentation under step steering conditions and sine wave steering conditions. The results show that the proposed torque optimal distribution strategy can optimally distribute the torque of the four drive motors through the real-time identification of working conditions. Compared with the four-wheel equal distribution, under two different steering conditions, the torque distribution efficiency of the torque distribution strategy using the golden section search algorithm increased by 4.35% and 3.83%, respectively. The energy utilization rate of the whole vehicle is improved under all of the working conditions. Under steering conditions, compared with the four-wheel equal distribution and the torque distribution strategy using the golden section search algorithm under all of the conditions, the yaw rate deviation and the slip angle deviation can be reduced, and the yaw stability has been improved.
