• A parallel hydraulic hybrid vehicle model is built to research its powertrain dynamics. • Power on gear shift control strategy is designed to avoid torque interruption. • LQR is used to compromise vehicle vibration, driving comfort and dynamic performance. • Extended Kalman filter (EKF) is adopted to estimate the powertrain parameters. • Torque compensation capability is studied with different accumulator charging state. The power on gear shift control of a parallel hydraulic hybrid vehicle (PHHV) is researched in this paper. A multibody dynamic model is built to capture the main vibration characteristics of PHHV powertrain, based on which the power on gear shift control strategy is designed and verified. To avoid the vehicle driving torque interruption during gear shift, power on gear shift control strategy is designed. In the control strategy, hydraulic pump/motor (HPM) compensates the engine torque when the engine clutch is disengaged for gear shift. The engine clutch engagement process is carefully controlled by LQR control strategy to mitigate the vehicle powertrain vibration and improve the vehicle driving comfort. Extended Kalman filter (EKF) is adopted to estimate the PHHV parameters required by LQR control. The available HPM torque depends on its working pressure which varies a lot with different accumulator state of charge. So the HPM torque compensation capability is investigated by analysing the traction force requirement during gear shift. To obtain the gear shift traction force demand, a gear shift schedule considering both vehicle fuel economy and dynamic performance is designed. The simulation results show that the HPM could satisfy most of the torque compensation requirements during gear shifts with the designed gear shift schedule in typical driving cycles.
