Thermal Aware Design Automation Of The Electronic Control System For Autonomous Vehicles, Ajinkya Bankar Mar 2022

Thermal Aware Design Automation Of The Electronic Control System For Autonomous Vehicles, Ajinkya Bankar

FIU Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The autonomous vehicle (AV) technology, due to its tremendous social and economical benefits, is transforming the entire world in the coming decades. However, significant technical challenges still need to be overcome until AVs can be safely, reliably, and massively deployed. Temperature plays a key role in the safety and reliability of an AV, not only because a vehicle is subjected to extreme operating temperatures but also because the increasing computations demand more powerful IC chips, which can lead to higher operating temperature and large thermal gradient. In particular, as the underpinning technology for AV, artificial intelligence (AI) requires substantially increased …


Secure Large Scale Penetration Of Electric Vehicles In The Power Grid, Abla Hariri Nov 2018

Secure Large Scale Penetration Of Electric Vehicles In The Power Grid, Abla Hariri

FIU Electronic Theses and Dissertations

As part of the approaches used to meet climate goals set by international environmental agreements, policies are being applied worldwide for promoting the uptake of Electric Vehicles (EV)s. The resulting increase in EV sales and the accompanying expansion in the EV charging infrastructure carry along many challenges, mostly infrastructure-related. A pressing need arises to strengthen the power grid to handle and better manage the electricity demand by this mobile and geo-distributed load. Because the levels of penetration of EVs in the power grid have recently started increasing with the increase in EV sales, the real-time management of en-route EVs, before …
