abstract
This paper represents the second part of a two-part paper on development of an intelligent energy management agent (IEMA) for parallel hybrid vehicles. In this part, energy management strategies for the torque distribution and charge sustenance tasks are established and implemented. Driving situation awareness-based fuzzy rule bases are developed to make intelligent decisions on the power split function. A charge sustenance strategy is developed in parallel to maintain adequate reserves of energy in the storage device for supporting an extended range of driving. Simulation study is conducted for the proposed IEMA and performance results are analyzed to evaluate its viability as a possible solution to and an extendable framework for energy management for parallel hybrid electric vehicles. 2005 IEEE.
