The coming electric vehicle transformation

Realizing the Electric Vehicle Revolution

20 Electric vehicle technologies (EVs) have emerged as an important climate mitigation and energy 21 security pathway. Current research demonstrating the potential benefits of EVs has largely hinged on 22 technological and engineering design breakthroughs. However, in order for electric motive systems to 23 scale up to a level necessary to realize such benefits will require crucial shifts in ag...

Leading the Electric Vehicle Charge

18 ANSYS ADVANTAGE ISSUE 2 | 2017 Leading the Electric Vehicle Charge The battery management system plays a critical role in today’s electric vehicles: It monitors the state of the battery, manages its operation to optimize vehicle performance and battery life, and ensures the safety of occupants. Researchers at National Electric Vehicles Sweden (NEVS) who are developing the BMS for their next-...

Drived Electric Vehicle

Thanks to the development of electric motors and batteries, the performance of EV is greatly improved in the past few years. The most distinct advantage of an EV is the quick and precise torque response of the electric motors. A further merit of a 4 in-wheel-motor drived electric vehicle (4WD EV) is that, the driving/braking torque of each wheel is independently adjustable due to small but powe...

Electric Vehicle Charging Modeling

With an electrified passenger transportation fleet, carbon dioxide emissions could be reduced significantly depending on the electric power production mix. Increased electric power consumption due to electric vehicle charging demands of electric vehicle fleets may be met by increased amount of renewable power production in the electrical systems. With electric vehicle fleets in the transportati...
