Popis: This paper presents a controller for enhancing theride comfort of electric vehicles with in-wheel motors (IWM) andelectromagnetic suspensions (AS). The combined use of IWMsand AS to increase the ride comfort is referred to as RideBlending (RB). The purpose of this integrated control, its generalidea and concept are discussed. The Ride Blending controlleris based on a multi-layer hierarchical control architecture. Tocontinuously allocate the demand between the actuators, thecontrol makes use of a cost function optimisation where the ideal control parameters for the current time step are defined. The goalof each component of this function is explained and the structureof each one is described. The use of the ride blending control isthen demonstrated on various driving manoeuvres to show thefunctionality and the ride quality improvement.
