Coordinated Control of Unmanned Electric Formula Car
2023
Author(s): Tao H, Yang B.
This paper studied the coordination control method of UEFC, and realized the coordination control of the mechanical structure of UEFC by combining lateral control and longitudinal control of UEFC.

Locating Charging Infrastructure for Shared Autonomous Electric Vehicles and for Vehicle-to-Grid Strategy: A Systematic Review and Research Agenda from an Energy and Mobility Perspective
2023
Author(s): Van den bergh O, Weekx S, De Cauwer C, Vanhaverbeke L.
In this paper, the authors find that optimization models are the most frequently used method to solve the CI allocation problem. The authors conduct separate examinations of the V2G and SAEVs location optimization models formulated in the literature, for which objective functions are used, and which constraints are considered (with respect to mobility and the electric grid).

Optimal Mileage of Electric Vehicles Considering Range Anxiety and Charging Times
2023
Author(s): He X, Hu Y
This paper aims to determine the optimal mileage of battery electric vehicles (BEVs) by considering the trade-off between range anxiety and charging times since frequent charging is a customary way to ease range anxiety for BEV drivers in practice but declines the life cycle of battery and increases the charging cost.
