  2. 1. Controlling over-actuated road vehicles during failure conditions

    Author : Daniel Wanner; Annika Stensson Trigell; Lars Drugge; Mats Jonasson; Jochen Rauh; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; vehicle dynamics; vehicle safety; driver-vehicle interaction; failure analysis; wheel hub motor failure; over-actuation; fault-tolerant control; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering; Farkostteknik;

    Abstract : The aim of electrification of chassis and driveline systems in road vehicles is to reduce the global emissions and their impact on the environment. The electrification of such systems in vehicles is enabling a whole new set of functionalities improving safety, handling and comfort for the user. READ MORE

  4. 2. Online State Estimation in Electrified Vehicles Linked to Vehicle Dynamics

    Author : Anton Albinsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; electric vehicles; state estimation; vehicle dynamics; parameter estimation; tyre-road friction estimation; active safety;

    Abstract : Electric vehicles have the potential to significantly reduce energy consumption and emissions for personal and commercial road transport and number of electric vehicles is likely to increase in the future due to stricter emission legislations. In order to accelerate market penetration, the competiveness of electric vehicles should increase in comparison to conventional vehicles. READ MORE

  5. 3. Improving energy-efficiency of electric vehicles by over-actuation : Du som saknar dator/datorvana kan kontakta [email protected] för information

    Author : Peikun Sun; Annika Stensson Trigell; Lars Drugge; Jenny Jerrelind; Gordon Timothy; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering; Farkostteknik;

    Abstract : As the concerns regarding environmental pollution, climate change and the fossilfuel crisis have grown, electric vehicles (EVs) have attracted a great deal of attention. However, for EVs to be more competitive compared with internal combustion engine vehicles (ICEVs), their driving range needs to be increased. READ MORE

  6. 4. Long-Term Posttraumatic Stress in Survivors from Disasters and Major Accidents
