Abstract
The present thesis describes the development and virtual testing of a wheel longitudinal slip control system, implemented both as a Traction Control Systems (TCS) and an Anti-lock Braking System (ABS). The system is designed for a four-wheel-drive battery electric vehicle (BEV) equipped with four independent electric motors, featuring the main dimensional and inertial characteristics of a 2016 Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio. The electric machines serve as the primary torque actuators in the control scheme, offering greater flexibility compared to conventional systems based on internal combustion engines (ICEs) and mechanical braking. The torque delivered by the electric motors can be measured and modulated with exceptional precision and speed, enabling the application of advanced control techniques.
A key innovation introduced in this work is the integration of road condition awareness — specifically, knowledge of the maximum friction coefficient — to enhance the performance of the control system across different road surfaces, particularly in low-grip conditions
