Abstract

See full text

A method for multi-speed electric vehicle shift control for damping an acceleration oscillation of the electric vehicle. The method includes determining a percentage of accelerator pedal travel and then retrieving a clutch calibration, a first electric motor calibration, and a second electric motor calibration correlating with the determined percentage of accelerator pedal travel. The method then applies the clutch calibration in actuating a clutch-to-clutch gear ratio change, thereby generating a vibration fluctuation in a first axle, and applies the first electric motor calibration in modulating a first electric motor to dampen the vibration fluctuation. The clutch actuation and first electric motor modulation together produces a first axle torque oscillation. The method applies the second electric motor calibration in modulating the second electric motor to generate a second axle torque oscillation sufficiently out-of-phase with the first axle torque oscillation, thereby dampening the vehicle acceleration oscillation of the electric vehicle.
