Modelling, Dynamics and Control of Electrified Vehicles provides a systematic overview of EV-related key components, including batteries, electric motors, ultracapacitors and system-level approaches, such as energy management systems, multi-source energy optimization, transmission design and control, braking system control and vehicle dynamics control. In addition, the book covers selected advanced topics, including Smart Grid and connected vehicles. This book shows how EV work, how to design them, how to save energy with them, and how to maintain their safety.
The book aims to be an all-in-one reference for readers who are interested in EVs, or those trying to understand its state-of-the-art technologies and future trends.
- Offers a comprehensive knowledge of the multidisciplinary research related to EVs and a system-level understanding of technologies
- Provides the state-of-the-art technologies and future trends
- Covers the fundamentals of EVs and their methodologies
- Written by successful researchers that show the deep understanding of EVs
