Comparing battery electric vehicle powertrains through rapid component sizing

Multidisciplinary design optimization for hybrid electric vehicles: component sizing and multi-fidelity frontal crashworthiness

“…Mass and dimensions of eletric motors MGs are linearly related to the corresponding power ratings reported in Table 1 as indicated by Finesso et al (2018). Details concerning the retained MGs can be found in Anselma and Belingardi (2019). For the HEV, an additional constant mass of 400kg has been retained accounting for the battery pack, the related containment structure, the power electronics and the electrical wiring.…”

Aging Passenger Car Fleet Structure, Dynamics, and Environmental Performance Evaluation at the Regional Level by Life Cycle Assessment

“…Other environmental impacts (acidification, human toxicity, particulate matter, photochemical ozone formation and resource depletion) have higher results for the BEV than the ICEV, primarily due to the major environmental loads of powertrain construction and manufacturing. [7,31] Compare life cycle (LC) Energy and GHG Emission of BEVs and PHEVs…”

“…Most of these studies focused on comparing different materials or technological options from an eco-design perspective in order to improve the environmental performance of the vehicle [6]. In this respect, most of the LCA research compares the environmental performance of different powertrain systems (mostly petrol and diesel vehicles, the so-called internal combustion engine vehicles (ICEVs)) to different types and configurations of electric-powered ones: battery electric vehicles (BEVs) [7], plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) [8,9], and fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs) [10,11]. These studies usually focus on discussing GHG emissions [12] or the climate change effects of ICEVs [13] versus those caused by the production, use, and postuse impacts of electric vehicles and batteries [14] and the corresponding emission transfer caused by the market uptake of these new products [15,16].…”

Electric Vehicle Mechanical Transmission System Based on Fractional Differential Equations

“…In the test, I collect the acceleration time-domain signal along the y-axis on the seat pan. Sensors II and III measure the y-axis acceleration time-domain signal in their local coordinate system [9]. Based on the response signal, we obtain the time domain signal of acceleration along the y-axis at the position of the lower and upper body centroid.…”
