Lead loading of urban streets by motor vehicle wheel weights.
This study documents that lead weights, which are used to balance motor vehicle wheels, are lost and deposited in urban streets, that they accumulate along the outer curb, and that they are rapidly abraded and ground into tiny pieces by vehicle traffic. The lead is so soft that half the lead deposited in the street is no longer visible after little more than 1 week. This lead loading of urban s...
متن کاملWheel Speed Control Algorithm for Rear Wheel Motor Driven Vehicle
The conventional vehicles in the past had consisted of mechanical differential which converts the engine torque in to two directions. Due to the introduction of electric vehicle the vehicle propulsion system has changed from combustion engine to electric motor. Since the concept of differential is a must have component to drive a vehicle, it is still used in electric vehicles as well. Common me...
متن کاملRide Comfort Optimization of In-Wheel-Motor Electric Vehicle with In-Wheel Vibration Absorber
In this paper, an in-wheel vibration absorber for In-wheel-motor electric vehicle (IWM EV) is designed, and a comprehensive control strategy of in-wheel absorber and vehicle suspension is proposed to improve vehicle ride comfort. The proposed in-wheel vibration absorber, designed for suppressing the motor vibration, is composed of a spring and a controllable damper. The values of in-wheel sprin...
متن کاملDual Mode Vehicle with In-Wheel Motor: Regenerative Braking Optimization
Dual Mode Vehicle with In-Wheel Motor: Regenerative Braking Optimization — To meet the growing need for mobility of people and goods while massively reducing CO2 emissions, the electrification of vehicles is an essential solution. The variety of vehicles and their use results in innovative solutions for adapted architecture. This is especially true for light commercial vehicles where the object...
متن کاملPerformance Evaluation of an In-Wheel Motor Cooling System in an Electric Vehicle/Hybrid Electric Vehicle
High power and miniaturization of motors in an in-wheel drive system, which is installed inside the wheels of a vehicle, are required for directly driving the wheels. In addition, an efficient cooling system is required to ensure high driving performance and durability. This study experimentally evaluated the heat dissipation performance of a 35-kW-class large-capacity in-wheel motor equipped w...
