چکیده

The magnitude of personal travel in the industrialised society has increased tremendously. In Sweden, the average travelled distance per person is currently around 40 km per day (see Figure 10.1). Travelling distances are related to speed. Studies show that the time spent on travel tends to be relatively constant at around one hour a day on average. The historical development of new transport technology such as trains and cars has increased the speed and comfort of travelling, and hence also the distances travelled. Airplanes make it convenient to travel even up to tens of thousands of kilometres for business meetings, visits or vacation. Globalised industries and charter tourism rely to a large extent on the speed of airplanes. And increased globalisation spurs further demand for air traffic.

A new control strategy for energy management in Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles based on Fuzzy Cognitive Maps

In this paper, a new control strategy for energy management in Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEVs) using Fuzzy Cognitive Map (FCM) is presented. In this strategy, FCM is used as a supervisory control such that the State of Charge (SoC) of the battery is kept in the acceptable range and fuel consumption per kilometer is reduced, in addition to providing the request power. Since this method ...

An Investigation on the Effect of Using Regenerative Braking System on Energy Consumption Reduction of Hybrid Vehicles Based on Tehran City Driving Cycle

In driving and when you brake, a lot of energy is dissipated to stop the car; especially in urban areas where the vehicle is driving in a stop-and-go pattern. This energy, which is dissipated by the brake pads, can be stored in the vehiclechr('39')s battery. In Hybrid and Electric Vehicles, a regenerative brake can be used alongside the mechanical brakes to regenerate some energy while braking....
