| Summary: | The main purpose of this manuscript is to analyze the stability of the shock response of the electric vehicle (EV) powertrain when considering the electro-mechanical coupling effect. The nonlinear drive-shaft model of the powertrain is built using the Lagrange method, based on which the shock response equation is also deduced. Meanwhile, the number and properties of the equilibrium points are studied. Two kinds of equilibrium points, saddle node and central point, which can induce different dynamic behaviors are found. The simulation results show that the trajectory of the shock response may be unstable if the parameters are chosen in the region that has a saddle node. If the parameters of the powertrain fall into the region that has only one central point, the trajectory of the shock response will be attracted by the stable limit cycle. Therefore, to ensure that the shock response is more stable, the parameters should be chosen in the region where only one central point is present.
