Abstract
This paper presents a slip suppression controller using sliding mode control method for electric vehicles which aims to improve the control performance and the energy conservation by controlling the slip ratio of wheel. In this method, a robust sliding mode controller against the model uncertainties is designed to obtain the maximum driving force by suppressing the slip ratio. The numerical simulations for one wheel model under variations in mass of vehicle and road condition are performed and demonstrated to show the effectiveness of the proposed method.
