On-board electric powertrain control for the compensation of the longitudinal acceleration oscillations caused by road irregularities

Experimental validation of the simulation plant along the realistic road profile: PSDs of vertical and longitudinal accelerations of the sprung mass at the front axle

Our project participants Pietro Stano, Davide Lazzarini et al. are to be congratulated for their journal paper “On-board electric powertrain control for the compensation of the longitudinal acceleration oscillations caused by road irregularities”, published in Mechanism and Machine Theory, Volume 202, 2024.

The EM-TECH research demonstrated that on-board electric powertrains can be used to enhance ride comfort and the longitudinal vehicle dynamics through the preview-based control of the motor torque, accounting for the road irregularities ahead through the input from road scanning sensors.
