Modular battery systems based on multilevel inverter (MLI) topologies can possibly
overcome some shortcomings of two-level inverters when used for vehicle propulsion. The …

This paper presents an electric traction drive for battery electric vehicles (EVs). The various
electrical and mechanical parts of EV are modeled and simulated using AVL-Cruise …

Minimum energy consumption with maximum comfort driving experience define the ideal
human mobility. Recent technological advances in most Advanced Driver Assistance …

The transport industry is a major contributor to both local pollution and greenhouse gas
emissions (GHGs). The key challenge today is to mitigate the adverse impacts on the …

This thesis covers topics including the design of electrical coils using DfAM, material
characterisation of both copper and AlSi10Mg, and machine learning. But before covering …

This contribution discusses the degrees of freedom that could be advantageously exploited
in the conception of permanent magnet (PM) machines in the context of very demanding …

High power density and high torque density are the fundamental requirements for electric
machines used in traction application. The former is obtained by potentially increasing the …

This paper reports an experimental study aimed at characterising the response of an in-situ
fibre optic fibre Bragg grating/magnetostrictive flux sensor when exposed to excitation in …

This article presents a comprehensive comparison and the design considerations of three
magnet configurations in interior permanent magnet (IPM) machines for high-speed traction …

This work is about efforts made for achieving a system-level evaluation of battery electric
vehicles. With the electric machine being the centre stage, all major components are …
