UNIVERSITY OF VALENCIENNES AND HAINAUT-CAMBRÉSIS PAGE 34 Researchers from the University of Valenciennes and Hainaut-Cambrésis are developing new energy management algorithms to improve the fuel economy of micro and mild hybrid vehicles. dSPACE MicroAutoBox and further modular dSPACE systems are used to implement the control strat- egies both on test benches and in vehicles. Optimized Optimized Optimized Optimized Optimized Hybrids HybridsPAGE 35 How optimized algorithms in an ECU save fuel Today, hybrids are on the road, from affordable micro hybrids providing mostly the stop&start feature, up to more expensive systems with signifi - cant pure electric mode range. One of the challenges is to improve the control algorithms to reach better fuel economy and reduce emissi
