Model in the loop simulation of electronically controlled wedge torque coupler for parallel hybrid electric vehicle

In conventional Parallel Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV), a mechanical coupling device used to couple the power between two different power sources is normally implemented using the planetary gear unit or gearbox unit. Several drawbacks from the implementation of the conventional mechanical coupling...
