Abstract:

This book comprehensively deals in fundamentals, theory and design of conventional vehicles with ICEs, EVs HEVs and FCVs incorporating vehicle performance parameters. It also includes topics ranging from vehicle system analysis, EV design, ICE-based drive trains, HEV configurations and methodologies described by stepwise mathematical equations, energy storage systems, etc. emphasizing overall drive train system. It presents, with simulation results, the design methodology of each drive train and design examples thoroughly. It also emphasize on overall drive train system. This book also discussed the environmental import of modern transportation.
