Regenerative Braking and Low Vehicle Noise of Electric Vehicles: Implications for the Driver
2014
Author(s): Cocron P
In the present dissertation the impact of the regenerative braking function and the low noise emission on the driver are examined in detail. In the present dissertation both BEV specific features are examined from a psychological perspective. Regenerative braking, as a system to regain energy during deceleration, is implemented in most vehicles with electric power trains. This could have enduring consequences on driver behavior.
The study aims at analyzing the control domain in electric mobility and discussing the design of the controller that drives the motor, allowing its driving and braking, with the ability to regenerate braking energy for recharging the batteries. The system should be capable of working without speed or position sensors.
Robotic Disassembly of Electric Vehicle Lithium-Ion Battery Packs for Recycling
2024
Author(s): Kay I P
This thesis presents the application of robotics for the disassembly of electric vehicle lithium-ion battery (LIB) packs for recycling. Electric vehicle battery systems can be expensive and dangerous to disassemble, therefore making it cost inefficient to recycle them currently.
The Four-Quadrant Transducer System for Hybrid Electric Vehicles
2005
Author(s): Nordlund E
In this thesis a hybrid electrical powertrain called the Four Quadrant Transducer (4QT) has been evaluated through different driving simulations, which later resulted in the manufacture of a prototype. The simulation of a 12 metric ton distribution truck showed that the 4QT system can reduce the fuel consumption by approximately 30 % during the FTP75 drive cycle.
Network Planning for Charging Electric Vehicles in Stockholm
2016
Author(s): Persson G H
This master thesis project analyses how an increased number of electric vehicles would affect the electric network in Stockholm. The project was started in order to help Ellevio, the DSO of Stockholm, understand how to manage the increased amount of requests of network-capacity connected to electric vehicle charging.
