Control technology for electric vehicles: Challenges and prospects for sustainable mobility

Faced with environmental challenges and the need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, the transition to low-carbon mobility is essential. At the heart of this evolution, the electric car is the subject of a great deal of research, in particular to optimize its powertrain. This book offers an in-depth study focusing on three areas: the development of advanced control laws (DTC and IRFOC) for the induction motor, the integration of a five-level multilevel inverter to improve the energy conversion system, and finally, the modeling of a hybrid electric-solar powertrain, with intelligent energy management. Simulations, experimental implementations and comparative analyses are presented to demonstrate gains in performance and autonomy. This work is aimed at researchers, engineers and students involved in the field of electric mobility.
