Abstract: The effect of the road excitation, the damping and inertia resistance causes nonlinear torsional vibration and leads to instability of EV powertrain. Nonlinear torsional vibration model is established considering the effect of rotor eccentricity. The equilibrium points of non-disturbed Hamilton system are solved. The influence of road excitation, damping and inertia resistance on the nonlinear vibration of EV transmission system respectively is studied. Moreover, the approach from periodic motion to chaotic motion is analyzed as well. The results show that EV powertrain makes one period motion when f1 < 0.23,μ1 > 0.2 or 0 < m1 < 0.3 respectively. When 0.23 < f1 < 0.5, 0 < μ1 < 0.2 or 0.3 < m1 < 0.5, EV powertrain transforms from stable periodic motion to chaotic motion through periodic bifurcation. When 0.52 < f1 < 0.62 or 0.5 < m1 < 0.6, EV transmission system transforms from chaos to three periods motion. EV powertrain is characterized by the alternation between the periodic motion and the chaotic motion with the increase of f1 and m1. When μ1 > 0.2, the system always makes one period motion as the parameter μ1 increases.
