Reducing fuel consumption, lowering emissions and improving driveability represent the main interests nowadays in automotive research centres from both academic and industry fields. The purpose is to develop more complex and accurate models for the automotive drivetrain in order to design and to apply different control strategies. In this paper, starting from the relations that describe the dynamical...
In recent years, due to emission reduction policies, research focused on alternative powertrains among which electric vehicles powered by fuel cells are becoming an attractive solution. Especially, proton-exchange fuel cell has more and more applications in hybrid vehicle. The main issues of these vehicles are the energy management system and the utilization rate of the fuel. In order to optimize...
This paper presents a control strategy for a mild hybrid vehicle equipped with integrated starter alternator (ISA). The ISA provides the torque augmentation and regenerative braking as well as the start/stop capability for the vehicle. continuously variable transmission (CVT) is utilized to achieve the full benefits of the mild hybrid drive train. The validity of the proposed CVT control unit, start/stop...
It has become apparent that a shift needs to be made in the USA from traditional vehiclespsila dependency on petroleum-based fuels to a more diversified source of fuels. Government, universities, and private sectors have begun to see the importance of fuel efficiency, fuel consumption, environmental factors, and health concerns to the population. The importance of these issues has begun to necessitate...
