2. 1. The Role of Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles in Electrifying Personal Transport

   Author : Ahmet Mandev; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; greenhouse gas GHG emissions; charging behavior; fuel consumption; eVKT; eVMT; PHEV Plug-in hybrid electric vehicle ; utility factor;

   Abstract : The Paris Agreement emphasizes the importance of greenhouse gas mitigation in the transport sector to address climate change and create a sustainable future with lower carbon emissions. Plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) can be helpful in reducing greenhouse gas emissions in transportation when combined with efforts to decarbonize the electricity sector. READ MORE

4. 2. The Role of Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles in Electrifying Personal Transport - Analysis of empirical data from North America

   Author : Ahmet Mandev; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; eVMT; utility factor; charging behavior; fuel consumption; eVKT; greenhouse gas GHG emissions; PHEV Plug-in hybrid electric vehicle ;

   Abstract : Plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEV) can help reduce the greenhouse gas emissions in the transport sector, combined with the decarbonization of the electricity sector, and play an important role in electrifying personal transport. This thesis uses empirical data from North America to investigate the role of PHEVs in electrifying personal transport, with a focus on the household context and charging behavior. READ MORE

5. 3. Aircraft Design Automation and Subscale Testing : With Special Reference to Micro Air Vehicles

   Author : David Lundström; Petter Krus; Jean- Marc Moschetta; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : This dissertation concerns how design automation as well as rapid prototyping and testing of subscale prototypes can support aircraft design. A framework for design automation has been developed and is applied specifically to Micro Air Vehicles (MAV). READ MORE

6. 4. Integrated Motor Drives and Battery Chargers for Electric or Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles

   Author : Saeid Haghbin; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; maximum torque per Ampere strategy.; integrated motor drive and battery chargers; field-oriented control; battery charger; isolated and non-isolated integrated charges; Plug-in vehicles; split-phase PM motor;

   Abstract : Plug-in vehicles, electric vehicles or plug-in hybrid electric vehicles, use grid power to charge the battery. The components in the traction circuit, like the electric motor and the inverter, are not used during the battery charging, so there is a possibility to use them in the charger circuit to reduce the size, weight and price of the on-board charger; that is called an integrated motor drive and battery charger or simply an integrated charger which can be galvanically isolated or non-isolated from the utility grid.

7. 5. Mathematical modelling of operating cycles for road vehicles

   Author : Luigi Romano; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; energy estimation; transport application; operating cycle; autoregressive models; road mission; stochastic models;

   Abstract : Difficulties that commercial vehicles are facing in meeting regulation standards require ad-hoc solutions. Emissions can be dramatically lowered if the characteristics of the transport application are known in advance. READ MORE
