Abstract
Vehicles equipped with an electric independent axle drive have different properties compared to conventional vehicles. Distribution of driving or braking torque can be achieved by the proper control of the operation of electric machines without applying additional mechanisms. In this paper a method of active torque distribution between front and rear axles is presented. The method allows to use the maximum tyres adhesion and minimize slips. The results of simulation tests are presented, in which the active torque distribution with evenly torque distribution were compared.
