Multi-Objective Optimization of Parking Charging Strategy for Extended-Range Hybrid Electric Vehicle Based on MOMSA

Extended-range hybrid electric vehicles (E-RHEVs) require optimized parking charging strategies that consider both charging time and battery health. Existing research often neglects the crucial impact of ambient temperature and long-term cycling on battery degradation. This study addresses this gap by developing a novel parking charging strategy for E-RHEVs that leverages a temperature-dependent battery aging model and a Multi-Objective Mantis Search Algorithm (MOMSA)—a metaheuristic optimization algorithm designed to solve multi-objective problems by efficiently exploring trade-offs between conflicting objectives. The MOMSA optimizes a five-stage State-of-Charge-based Multi-stage Constant Current (SMCC) charging profile—a dynamic current adjustment strategy that minimizes battery capacity degradation by dividing the charging process into sequential phases. The MOMSA-based SMCC strategy achieves an optimal balance between charging time and battery capacity degradation across a range of ambient temperatures (5 °C to 35 °C). Compared to a conventional 0.5C CC-CV charging strategy, the MOMSA-based SMCC strategy demonstrably reduces battery degradation with a moderate increase in charging time. Furthermore, the MOMSA-based charging strategy outperforms a Multi-Objective Particle Swarm Optimization (MOPSO)-based approach, achieving comparable degradation mitigation while significantly reducing charging time. One-week cycling simulations under realistic driving conditions further validate the MOMSA-based charging strategy’s superior long-term performance in delaying battery degradation across various temperatures. This strategy extends E-RHEV battery lifespan while maintaining operational efficiency.
