  • Publication number: 20240059179
    Abstract: A method for energy management of an electric energy storage of an electric vehicle comprising at least one electric machine. The method includes determining a potential regenerative charging amount for the electric energy storage during an upcoming braking cycle for the electric vehicle; before reaching the braking cycle, generating driving torque using at least one electric machine while at the same time generating a braking torque using a brake generating device to discharge the electric energy storage sufficient to receive the potential regenerative charging amount at the upcoming braking cycle, wherein the generated driving torque corresponds to the sum of a demanded driving torque and the generated braking torque.

  • Patent number: 11400938
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a method for controlling a driveline (10) of a vehicle (1), wherein the driveline (10) at least comprises a transmission (13) and a clutch (12), wherein the clutch (12) is adapted to be provided between the transmission (13) and a propulsion unit (11) of the driveline (10), wherein the method comprises the steps of; predicting an imminent drive route, identifying if the imminent drive route comprises any clutch severity classification (CSC), and if the imminent drive route comprises a clutch severity classification (CSC)—estimating (103) an expected clutch temperature (Tic) dependent on at least the clutch severity classification (CSC) and one vehicle parameter (Vp), wherein, the clutch severity classification (CSC) is at least dependent on an inclination of the imminent drive route, and if (105) the expected clutch temperature (Tic) is above a clutch temperature threshold value (Tt); controlling (106) the driveline (10) in a critical heat mode, wherein in the critical heat mode the

  • Patent number: 11400937
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for controlling a driveline (10) of a vehicle (1), wherein the driveline (10) at least comprise a clutch (12) and a transmission (13), where the clutch (12) is adapted to connect the transmission to an propulsion unit (11). The method comprises the steps of;—estimating (105) an upcoming clutch temperature at least dependent on an imminent drive route, and if (106) the estimated upcoming clutch temperature is above a threshold value (T);—controlling (107) the driveline (10) in a critical heat mode, wherein in the critical heat mode the transmission (13) is controlled such that a clutch temperature increase is lower in comparison to a normal driveline control mode.

  • Patent number: 11339808
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for controlling a hydraulic system of a vehicle driveline. According to the method a transmission (13) of a driveline (2) is controlled in a limited actuation mode, if the pressure (p) is below the predetermined critical lower threshold value (Tel), wherein in the limited actuation mode the transmission (13) is controlled such that less actuator actuations is performed in comparison to a normal actuation mode.
