The study aims to address information dissemination problem with an efficient routing and propose new cluster based protocol which overcomes design challenges.

The study develop an ED based TC system for the use in a NEV. The proposed system features design simplicity, response accuracy, energy efficient and cost effectiveness.

The study aims to understand the energy interactions of the fuel cell and batteries and to identify an optimal energy management.

In this research, to deal with the conflicting control objectives of active suspension system (ASS) including ride comfort, suspension travel, and road handling, the control design is reformulated as an optimization problem and the linear quadratic control framework and model predictive control strategy have been explored.

In this research, an analysis on Parallel HEV to reduce fuel usage and improve emission control performance, in addition to optimizing the size of its key components has been performed. The optimization of the parallel HEV is performed using both the analytical and heuristic approach and their pros and cons were discussed.

Fuel cell vehicles have the potential to address the problems surrounding the ICE vehicle without imposing any significant restrictions on vehicle performance, driving range, or refueling time. This thesis makes a number of key contributions to the advancement of fuel cell vehicle design within two main research areas: Power backup during the regenerative mode and analysis of State of Charge (SoC) of battery with the various controllers.

E-mobility considered being a sustainable solution for environmental pollution and the global warming phenomena resulting from it. Since most of the developing countries are relies on conventional energy sources for electricity generation, integration of renewable energy to the electric vehicle charging holds the key to sustainable transportation.

This thesis brings in a solution for effective integration of the solar photovoltaic and thermal technologies with the EV industry to minimise carbon emission. The integration of the solar PV panels on EV rooftop and thermal collectors in the manufacturing section of the EV industry is considered as the first and second research objectives respectively.

This thesis explores the performance of EV with Hybrid Energy Storage System (HESS) employing Li-ion battery and Ultracapacitor (UC). A comprehensive modelling of various system components of 3-wheeled Light Electric vehicle (LEV) based on Indian Driving Cycle (IDC) is presented to aid in the sizing of ESS.

The main objective of this work is to introduce G2V scheduling in multiple electricity markets and to review important problems in the current G2V scheduling problem such as reduction of the EV owner cost, support the power grid, monetize and capture EVs’ value, generate revenues for EVA. The streams or stacks of value can be monetized by charging customers’ batteries when wholesale prices are low, or discharging them when the opposite is true; and by supporting local distribution networks at times when they are stressed.
