“…The length of a packet depends on the object. The packet's length without stuff bit can be calculated from Equation (2). Moreover, in the actual situation, the stuff bit must be considered, and its length could get from Equation (3).…”

“…How a communication protocol supports synchronization is discussed in many literatures [1]. As mentioned CAN communication for complex in-vehicle networks can reduce the cost of hardware configuration and maintenance [2] is similar to [1], but the CANopen protocol is adopted and supports compatibility. The master communicate with the devices from different manufacturers.…”

A Brushless DC (BLDC) motors synchronous control system based on the CANopen (a communication protocol and device profile specification for automatic embedded systems) protocol is proposed in this paper. Multi-motor control is popular in robot or automation system, and the synchronization is an important issue, may be the key issue. The CANopen is a solution, due to Process Data Object (PDO) protocol. A Texas Instruments microcontroller TMS320F28069 is used as master to control six BLDC motors used as slave in this paper. The Master sends synchronization object to slaves' base on the communication profile CAN (Controller Area Network) in Automation (CiA) 301 and the motion control profile CiA402. The system suns at 500 kbits/s and 1 Mbits/s transmission rate by setting PDO. The firmware details in this paper to show six-motor synchronous control.

“…Some of the results for the systems implemented in the EV will be discussed below. It is worth mentioning that the architecture of the communication was created based on the prior works [65][66][67]. These works describe architectures with a CAN-Bus protocol to monitor variables in hybrid or cargo vehicles.…”

In recent years, there has been a growing interest in education for sustainable development (ESD). Although several national and international agencies, e.g., the UN or UNESCO, have promoted its deployment in higher education institutions, educators are still facing problems with how to articulate this type of education within the curriculum, allowing students to develop their technical and labor competencies, and soft skills as well. In this way, this study describes a methodology with Project-Based Learning in renewable and sustainable energies through the development of an electrical vehicle (EV) known as EOLO. This initiative arose from an industry-academia collaboration to develop the first Colombian EV with the support of solar and wind energy sources. Twelve engineering students participated in the development of the vehicle through a set of capstone projects over a year and a half with the support of two tutors (professors) and two engineers (technical staff) of the project. Additionally, two versions of EOLO with vertical and horizontal axis wind turbines were made with the cooperation of the students. The results evidence that the methodology helped to engage students, promoted meaningfully and situated learning through real-world problems in renewable energies, and fostered motivation and peer collaboration. Nonetheless, aspects such as the improvement of the communications channels, the revision of the complexity of the projects, the sense of community to achieve a common goal, or the tutoring and monitoring processes should be strengthened for further initiatives and/or active learning methodologies. In this sense, some challenges and recommendations that can help to develop methodologies that combine ESD and engineering are provided based on the experience in this study.
