Electric Bicycles (EBs) provide a promising sustainable mobility solution. Despite the huge number of research and development activities, the battery pack is still the Achilles' heel of electric vehicles. The dilemma arises between energy content, weight and cost of the batteries. A potential remedy is Regenerative Braking (RB). The main idea of RB is to recover the highest possible amount of kinetic...
This paper presents a software tool that has been developed to model, investigate and simulate the behavior of a photovoltaic generator to be installed on a generic non-planar surface. The innovative aspect of the tool is the possibility to consider any kind of surfaces, also curved and moving ones. The tool has been developed in the Matlab environment and allows the user to analyze any kind of surface...
This paper presents a Multicriteria Decision Aid methodology for planning energy storage and sustainable mobility, in an isolated system. The objective of this research is to enhance the sustainability of the analyzed case study (São Miguel Island), by comparing a set of alternatives for energy storage and sustainable mobility. The alternatives characterization and evaluation is made through the calculation...
