Machine Learning Approach To Investigate Ev Battery Characteristics, Shayan Falahatdoost

The main factor influencing an electric vehicle’s range is its battery. Battery electric vehicles experience driving range reduction in low temperatures. This range reduction results from the heating demand for the cabin and recuperation limits by the braking system. Due to the lack of an internal combustion engine-style heat source, electric vehicles' heating system demands a significant amount of energy. This energy is supplied by the battery and results in driving range reduction. Moreover, Due to the battery's low temperature in cold weather, the charging process through recuperation is limited. This limitation of recuperation is caused by the low reaction …
Developing Takeover Request Warning System To Improve Takeover Time And Post-Takeover Performance In Level 3 Automated Drivin, Niloy Talukder
Developing Takeover Request Warning System To Improve Takeover Time And Post-Takeover Performance In Level 3 Automated Drivin, Niloy Talukder
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The automotive industry is shifting towards partial (level 3) or fully automated vehicles. An important research question in level 3 automated driving is how quickly drivers can take over the vehicle control in response to a critical event. In this regard, this study develops an integrated takeover request (TOR) system which provides visual and auditorial TOR warning in both vehicle interface and personal portable device (e.g., tablet). The study also evaluated the effectiveness of the integrated TOR system in reducing the takeover time and improving post-takeover performance. For these purposes, 44 drivers participated in the driving simulator experiment where they …
Redesign And Benchmarking Of Electric Vehicle Batteries For Demanufacturing For Secondary Life Applications In The Circular Economy, Abhay Singh Rathaur
Redesign And Benchmarking Of Electric Vehicle Batteries For Demanufacturing For Secondary Life Applications In The Circular Economy, Abhay Singh Rathaur
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
As per the latest records, the transportation sector is the second largest in energy consumption and plays a major role in air pollution and co2 emission. One solution to curb this pollution and release of hazardous gases is li-ion batteries by electrifying the vehicles. However, these batteries have one factor over here: once EV batteries reach 70-80% charge holding capacity, they are not good enough for traction in the vehicle. Therefore, replacing these batteries with a new ones is necessary. However, these discarded batteries have enough charge holding capacity, which can be used in secondary applications called second- …
Analysis Of Combustion In Plasma Electrolytic Oxidation (Peo) Coatings Of The Piston Surface In Spark Ignition Engines, Brendon Bain
Analysis Of Combustion In Plasma Electrolytic Oxidation (Peo) Coatings Of The Piston Surface In Spark Ignition Engines, Brendon Bain
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
With the global effort to “green” the transportation industry, the internal combustion engine (ICE) is required to reduce its carbon footprint and can do so by increasing efficiency. Plasma Electrolytic Oxidation (PEO) coatings confer properties of high wear and corrosion resistance, high hardness, excellent adhesion and a superior thermal barrier to their substrate, suggesting that coating of ICE components has the potential to greatly improve the combustion efficiency. The primary objective of this thesis is to analyze the effects of PEO coating on the surface of pistons in a spark ignition ICE, with the goal of increasing efficiency, to address …

Effects On Vehicle Ride Comfort Of An Adaptive Suspension System Using Neural Networks, Sylvia Yin Zhixian
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Suspension systems in the auto industry have always been a topic of interest, as they relate to so many aspects of vehicles. Various types of suspension are commonly used now, such as passive suspensions, semi-active suspensions and active suspensions. However, the current technology mainly focuses on the change of damping ratio. The aim of this thesis is to consider both spring and damper properties for suspensions of an off-road vehicle. In order to do this, a 10-degree of freedom model was built using the EoM software in Julia. The output state space matrices from EoM were used as an input …
Bake-Hardening Of Aluminum Alloys For Automotive Applications: Influence Of Temperature, Time And Pre-Strain Parameters, Giorgio Rolle
Bake-Hardening Of Aluminum Alloys For Automotive Applications: Influence Of Temperature, Time And Pre-Strain Parameters, Giorgio Rolle
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
An experimental evaluation of the effect of bake hardening on aluminum alloys for automotive lightweight applications is developed through tensile tests and dent tests. All the alloys belong to the 6xxx series and include high formability alloys, improved hemming types and improved bake response alloys. An experimental matrix which contains different time-temperature baking conditions is built, and two pre-strain conditions are considered: no pre-strain and 2% pre-strain. A suitable testing phase is designed to be as much representative as possible of the actual manufacturing process of an automotive panel. After a data analysis phase performed by means of MATLAB software, …
Enabler Methodology To Use A Dynamic Simulator To Develop Global Vehicles, Manuella Maria Aleci
Enabler Methodology To Use A Dynamic Simulator To Develop Global Vehicles, Manuella Maria Aleci
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The international car manufacturer Stellantis designs and produces vehicles for fourteen brands. Some brand characteristics satisfy both the European and North American market (e.g., Jeep), while others primarily target one market or the other. Efforts have been made recently to harmonize design and development processes within the global company. The cornerstone of this project is the subjective assessment procedure performed on the dynamic driving simulator, a newly developed technology that reduces time and cost during the development phase of a new car model. The technology can be used prior to the production of physical prototypes, allowing the assessment of handling …
Numerical Prediction Of The Impact Response Of Tailored 1500 Mpa And 2000 Mpa Press Hardening Boron Steel, Joseph Guignard
Numerical Prediction Of The Impact Response Of Tailored 1500 Mpa And 2000 Mpa Press Hardening Boron Steel, Joseph Guignard
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
This thesis investigates the response of 1500 MPa and 2000 MPa press hardening steel (PHS) in a dynamic crushing scenario. The work involves creating numerical models to simulate tailored channel sections. The zones of different hardness are created using the tailored hot stamping process (THS), where a heated die set is used to quench an austenitized blank to produce parts with zones of differentiating hardness.
The 1500 MPa PHS was quenched using a die heated to different temperatures to produce a range of microstructures (225 HV to 473 HV) as well as the 2000 MPa PHS (297 HV to 574 …
