Abstract:

Automotive chassis have undergone transformations through mechanization, electrification, and electronicization and are currently evolving toward intelligent systems. Changes in propulsion forms have resulted in significant alterations in chassis configuration, thereby necessitating innovation in the methodologies and foundational theories of chassis design. This paper provides a systematic review of the development history of automotive chassis configurations and design methodologies, examining the technological evolution from traditional internal combustion engine chassis configurations, through centralized electric drive configurations, to distributed electric drive configurations. The state-of-the-art advances in automotive chassis design methods are discussed across four dimensions: the design methodologies for modular distributed electric drive chassis, chassis design empowered by AI and optimization techniques, scenario-driven automotive chassis design, and digital virtual verification techniques for chassis systems. Addressing the challenges currently confronting chassis design methodologies, recommendations for development are proposed, focusing on three areas: interdisciplinary integration in chassis design, chassis design empowered by AI and performance analysis, and the progression of domestic chassis design software toolchains.

Key words: automotive chassis design methods, distributed electric drive chassis, chassis design empowered by AI, virtual verification, scenario-driven, multidisciplinary integration

摘要:

汽车底盘经历了机械化、电气化、电子化发展阶段,正向智能化的方向发展。驱动形式的变化使底盘构型发生了显著的改变,进而引发对底盘设计方法与基础理论革新的需求。文章系统梳理了汽车底盘构型及设计方法的发展历程,回顾了从传统燃油车底盘构型、集中式电驱构型到分布式电驱构型的技术演变。从模块化分布式电驱底盘的设计方法、人工智能(Artificial Intelligence, AI)赋能的底盘设计与优化方法、场景驱动的汽车底盘设计及底盘系统数字化虚拟验证方法4个层面论述了汽车底盘设计方法的前沿动态。针对当前底盘设计方法面临的挑战,从多学科深度融合的底盘设计、AI赋能底盘设计与性能分析、基于数字孪生的角模块开发平台搭建3个方面提出了发展建议。
