In order to solve the problem of poor adaptability and robustness of the rule-based energy management strategy (EMS) in hybrid commercial vehicles, leading to suboptimal vehicle economy, this paper proposes an improved dung beetle algorithm (DBO) optimized multi-fuzzy control EMS. First, the rule-based EMS is established by dividing the efficient working areas of the methanol engine and power battery. The Tent chaotic mapping is then used to integrate strategies of cosine, Lévy flight, and Cauchy Gaussian mutation, improving the DBO. This integration compensates for the traditional dung beetle algorithm’s tendency to fall into local optima and enhances its global search capability. Subsequently, fuzzy controllers for the driving charging mode and hybrid driving mode are designed under this rule-based EMS. Finally, the improved DBO is used to obtain the optimal control of the fuzzy controller by taking the fuel consumption of the whole vehicle and the fluctuation change of the battery state of charge (SOC) as the optimization objectives. Compared to traditional rule-based energy management strategies, the optimized fuzzy control using the enhanced DBO continuously adjusts the torque distribution between the engine and motor based on the vehicle’s real-time state, resulting in a 9.07% reduction in fuel consumption and a 3.43% decrease in battery SOC fluctuations.

In order to achieve multi-objective optimization for a permanent magnet water pump motor in heavy commercial vehicles, we propose a strategy based on response-surface methodology and the improved sparrow algorithm (CGE-SSA). Firstly, the output capacity of the pump during actual operation was tested with an experimental bench to determine the design parameters of the motor, and then its modeling was completed using Ansys Maxwell 2022r2 software. Secondly, the response-surface model was established by taking the parameters of permanent magnet width, rib width, and slot width as optimization parameters and the output torque (T_a), torque ripple (T_r), and back electromotive force (EMF) amplitude as optimization objectives. Meanwhile, three methods—namely, circular sinusoidal chaotic mapping, improved golden sinusoidal strategy, and adaptive weight coefficients—were used to improve the convergence speed and accuracy of the sparrow search algorithm (SSA). Finally, the multi-objective optimization of the permanent magnet synchronous motor was completed using the improved sparrow algorithm. A comparative analysis of the motor’s output before and after optimization showed that the torque pulsation and reverse electromotive force of the motor were significantly improved after optimization.
