in this paper, the stability of a functionally graded magneto-electro-elastic (fg-mee) micro-beam under actuation of electrostatic pressure is studied. for this purpose euler-bernoulli beam theory and constitutive relations for magneto-electro-elastic (mee) materials have been used. we have supposed that material properties vary exponentially along the thickness direction of the micro-beam. gov...

this paper proposes a novel decision making framework for an electricity retailer to procure its electric demand in a bilateral-pool market in presence of charging and discharging of electric vehicles (evs). the operational framework is a two-stage programming model in which at the first stage, the retailer and ev aggregator do their medium-term planning. determination of retailer's optimum sel...

This paper presents a smart DC micro-grid system for plug-in electric vehicle charging and discharging. This DC microgrid integrates the plug-in battery electric vehicles (BEVs) & plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) together with the AC supply module, storage energy module, and intelligent control module. By connecting with the AC power source and the storage energy module, this grid can of...

battery pack is the main energy storage element, and directly affects the performance of electric vehicle. this paper selects the forced air cooling of horizontal battery pack as the study object, and researches the heat dissipation performance of different operating conditions with fleunt software. results indicate that: according to the four kinds of transient state conditions and steady stat...

with the aim of reducing cost of electricity consumption and peak load reduction, tools requirement for better managing electricity consumption have become inevitable in recent years. smart home has some equipment which are controllable and this ability is used for increasing comfort and minimizing electricity cost for residence. as a key component of smart home , electric vehicle(ev) ,increase...

Many studies have been done on hybrid vehicles in the past few years. The full hybrid vehicles need a large number of batteries creating up to 300 (V) to meet the required voltage of electric motor. The size and weight of the batteries cause some problems. This research investigates the mild hybrid vehicle. This vehicle includes a small electric motor and a high power internal combustion engine...

Hybrid Electric Vehicles HIGHLIGHTS PROCESS AND TECHNOLOGY STATUS – A hybrid electrical vehicle (HEV) is a vehicle equipped with either an internal combustion engine (ICE) and an electrical motor powered by electrical batteries. In 1997, Toyota sold in Japan the first modern hybrid electric car, the Toyota Prius. Today’s HEVs are an emerging technology in the automotive market, with manufacture...

In distribution networks, failure to smooth the load curve leads to voltage drop and power quality loss. In this regard, electric vehicle batteries can be used to smooth the load curve. However, to persuade vehicle owners to share their vehicle batteries, we must also consider the owners' profits. A challenging problem is that existing methods do not take into account the vehicle owner demands ...
