Advanced Electric Vehicle Technology, 3rd Edition

Topic Information

Dear Colleagues,

This Topic is a continuation of the successful previous Topic “Advanced Electric Vehicle Technology, 2nd Volume” (https://www.mdpi.com/topics/DTVV1QW14T). Electric vehicles are a highly exciting topic of research and industrial development. In the last 10 years, rapid development in both electric vehicle technology and commercial activities has occurred. The number of research papers, webinars, tutorial courses, and PhD graduates in this field has rapidly increased. Commercial electric vehicles have increased in terms of both their sales and models. Electric vehicles are also a hot topic in the news and online media. However, their batteries, energy storage, packaging, and chargers still require significant research efforts. Other associated technologies, such as Vehicle-to-X and new motors and actuators, are now replacing the conventional mechanical and hydraulic systems in vehicles. Because of the demand for smart cities and robotic activities, new control methods and autonomous driving are now being applied to and developed in most vehicles. All automotive enterprises have gradually changed their models into electric versions. The associated infrastructure and government policies and standards are evolving, further adding to the significance of this area of research. Today, electric vehicle technology has been extended to vessels, underwater vehicles, air transport, and space vehicles. This technology is not restricted to electrical, electronic, and computer engineering but also extends to multi-disciplinary research.

We have initialized this Topic because we can see that the market development for electric vehicles is expanding rapidly. The next 50 years will be a transition period from fossil fuel vehicles to electric vehicles. The next 20 years are critical to electric vehicle development, and we now invite you to submit a paper to report, discuss and predict the research and development in this exciting field of science.
