In this paper, a novel electromechanical-hydraulic coupling system is proposed and integrated as a powertrain for electric vehicles, which can assist the electric vehicle to fully utilize its braking energy. The hydraulic regenerative braking force and electric regenerative braking force can provide all the braking needs using the medium and small braking intensities. Furthermore, an improved compound brake control strategy based on the braking force distribution is proposed and simulated. The results show that under the premise of ensuring braking stability, the electromechanical-hydraulic coupling driving electric vehicle can adapt to various working conditions with excellent energy-saving results. The hydraulic accumulator recovery efficiency is above 99%, and the state of charge consumption rate of the battery pack can be reduced by more than 9%. More importantly, the proposed hybrid power system can significantly improve the driving range and energy efficiency, as well as reduce the consumers' mileage anxiety in electric vehicles.展开更多
