In response to the EU’s stringent zero-carbon emission standards for 2035 and global initiatives to phase out fossil-fuel-powered vehicles, there is an urgent need for innovative solutions in vehicle propulsion systems. While much of the curren...
A conceptual study was performed on intelligent driving acceleration strategies for vehicles equipped with internal combustion engines. Two archetypal acceleration scenarios of highway driving and urban driving were prescribed. Three trajectories wer...
We conducted an isogeometric analysis (IGA) to evaluate the performance of automobile structural member deformation and crash. In automobile crash analysis, ensuring the accuracy of the acceleration, velocity, and load in time series, as well as the...
This study aims to improve the battery performance in hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) by reducing the vehicle speed. We developed a specific protocol for managing battery use and optimizing the energy consumption rate to achieve this goal. The protoc...
Due to the increasing complexity of vehicle software, it is becoming increasingly difficult to comprehensively test all requirements. This inevitably means that alternative test methods, e.g., simulation-based methods, must be used more frequently. H...
The direct torque control (DTC) strategy was proposed more than 25 years ago. It is one of the most successful and reliable techniques for AC motors. This paper presents the application of DTC using a four-switch inverter, as one of the non-conventio...
This paper investigates the application of contusion stability yaw control of a lightweight solar-electric vehicle. The vehicle’s customized design envelope makes it more sensitive to variations in load due to its low weight and relatively larg...
In this work, a new plastic-intensive medium-pressure plate (MPP), which is part of a fuel-cell system, has been developed together with a steel plate meeting all mechanical and chemical requirements. This newly developed MPP had to achieve the objec...
This study’s goals are divided into two categories. The first is to design and build an excavator equipped with parallel electrical linear actuators. The second is to generate and test a PSO-based and a PFM-based path for this excavator in orde...
This paper deals with the phenomenon of torsion oscillations in railway vehicle drive systems. The main goal is to reduce the risk of presence of torsional oscillations in wheelset drive, eventually to propose systems to effectively identify and elim...
