Heavy-duty Electric Vehicles: From Concept to Reality

Heavy-duty Electric Vehicles presents engineering principles and design approaches for heavy-duty electric vehicles along with real-world operational data from a commercial application of an electric city bus. It provides a detailed methodology for designing the heavy-duty vehicle driveline system - from defining the subsystems required specs based on Vehicle Technical Specification (VTS) and Vehicle Performance Requirement (VPR) to component selection and finally integration and supervisory control system design. This book not only discusses technical aspects of motors, power electronics, batteries and vehicle dynamics, but also how to integrate all these systems to run the vehicle in a real application. Provides a detailed design methodology for electric drivetrain and energy storage system in EV applicationsFeatures a total cost optimization model for identifying the economically most feasible powertrain and charging routine for different applications of the heavy electric vehicleContains a comprehensive overview of various government policies propelling the growth of market share of heavy electric vehicles in different countries of the worldPresents a case study on successful integration of electric buses within the public transport network INDICE: 1.
