At present, the starting evaluation method of Dual Clutch Transmission (DCT) vehicles is mainly based on the driver’s subjective evaluation. Too much subjectivity leads to inaccurate evaluation. In view of the above problems, a DCT vehicle starting quality evaluation system was established based on the grey relational analysis method and the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method. In this study, power, comfort and economy were considered, and starting quality evaluation indicators including starting response delay time, starting acceleration time, starting acceleration peak, engine speed fluctuation and shock were selected as evaluation index. The coefficient of variation method calculated the objective weight of the starting quality evaluation indicators, and based on the grey relational analysis method, the order of the correlation degree between each index and the starting quality was clarified, which verified the accuracy and reliability of the weight calculation results. Finally, based on the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation, the starting quality evaluation model of DCT vehicles was established and objectively scored, which made the starting quality evaluation of DCT vehicles more objective and true.

Based on a 2.0 L naturally aspirated Atkinson gasoline engine with a Low Pressure Exhaust Gas Recirculation (LP-EGR) system, the effects of different EGR and EGR coupling Variable Valve Timing (VVT) on combustion characteristics and performance were studied. The results show that the LP-EGR can effectively suppress knocking and reduce pumping loss, improve fuel thermal efficiency of Atkinson gasoline engine and reduce NOx emission. For the Best Thermal Efficiency (BTE) point of the engine, the effective fuel thermal efficiency can be improved by 7.4% due to 27% of EGR rate. At the medium load point, the combustion stability can gradually deteriorate with the increase of the EGR rate, and the effective fuel thermal efficiency increases first and then decreases. At the external characteristic point, EGR can lead to a decrease in charging efficiency and power. In addition, the study shows that VVT and EGR have a coupling effect on fuel consumption of Atkinson gasoline engine.
In order to study the noise source characteristics of integrated electric drive assembly, this paper proposed a joint algorithm of RVMD-RobustICA-ST combined with coherence analysis method. Firstly, the spatial dimension of the noise was estimated by Rule of Dominant Eigenvalues(RDE) based on Singular Value Decomposition(SVD), and the variational modal decomposition was subjected to targeted conditional constraints, and then Robust Independent Component Analysis(RobustICA) combined with variational modal decomposition to extract signal features. Secondly, S Transform and Fast Fourier Transform were used to identify the time-frequency characteristics of each component signal. Finally, on the basis of analyzing the waveform error of the component signal using the quadratic residual method, a linear system was established with the vibration signal, noise signal, and time-frequency overlapping component signal of the electric drive assembly as variables for coherence analysis. The results show that the meshing vibration noise of the second gear pair of the reducer has the greatest contribution to the noise of the electric drive assembly under steady state conditions, and the noise energy of the time-frequency overlapping component signal is mainly provided by the meshing vibration of the first gear pair of the reducer.

The results show that the head crash speed of the cyclist is not different from that of pedestrians. For the vehicle with Bonnet Leading Edge (BLE) height bellow 850 mm, it is recommended to expand the Wrap Around Distance (WAD) of head crash area from 2 100 to 2 300 mm, and the collision angle is 45°. For vehicles with BLE height higher than 850 mm, there is no need to expand the area.
In order to accurately reflect the driving motion characteristics of vehicles on the real road, this paper proposes a vehicle driving cycle construction method based on Markov fusion online map information. In this paper, the actual collected vehicle driving data were cleaned and segmented that were clustered and analyzed by Principal Component Analysis (PCA) method and K-Means clustering method, and a typical working condition fragment library based on Markov was established. The road information of the planned path on the online map was integrated in the fragment database, and the road driving condition of the vehicle was constructed. An electric vehicle was taken as the research object for simulation and analysis, the results show that the energy consumption of online map planning driving condition based on Markov fragment library is closer to the actual road condition than that of online map basic planning condition. The error of characteristic parameters is only 4.29%, and the error of energy consumption is only 4.09%.

In the recirculating condition, the oil stirring loss has a significant impact on the reducer efficiency, and reducing the oil stirring loss can effectively improve the reducer efficiency in the recirculating condition.
