[ 1 ] - Fuel consumption-aware powertrain selection and optimization for a B-class sedan

In current research we studied different powertrain options for a given B-class sedan vehicle in terms of fuel consumption target. The considered options include two engines and a base manual gearbox assuming the gear numbers and ratios can be changed. We concentrated on 5 and 6 speed gearboxes and used two parallel techniques to optimize gear ratios of the manual gearbox due to in-cycle fuel c...
