  • Electric Vehicle
    Electric vehicle An electric vehicle (EV), also referred to as an electric drive vehicle, uses one or more electric motors or traction motors for propulsion. An electric vehicle may be pow- ered through a collector system by electricity from off- vehicle sources, or may be self-contained with a battery or generator to convert fuel to electricity.[1] EVs include road and rail vehicles, surface and underwater vessels, electric aircraft and electric spacecraft. EVs first came into existence in the mid-19th century, when electricity was among the preferred methods for motor vehicle propulsion, providing a level of comfort An EV and an antique car on display at a 1912 auto show and ease of operation that could not be achieved by the gasoline cars of the time.

  • Advanced Redundancy Technology for a Drive System Using In-Wheel
    ISSN 2032-6653 The World Electric Vehicle Association Journal, Vol. 1, 2007 Advanced Redundancy Technology for a Drive System Using In-Wheel Motors Kiyomoto Kawakami*, Hidetoshi Tanabe**, Hiroshi Shimizu*, Hiroichi Yoshida* In electric vehicles that use in-wheel motors, the right and left traction forces become unbalanced if a motor malfunctions by motor lock or loss of traction, generating yaw moment. Control methods were designed to reduce this effect by stopping the motor output on the opposite side of the same axle. By using a prototype “Eliica” car, the maximum yaw rate and lateral acceleration were compared for a breakdown of one motor with the results from the “Sensitivity to lateral wind” indicated in Z108-76 of the Japanese Automobile Standards Organization. Under redundancy control, the test results were confirmed to be below the tolerance limits Keywords: Wheel Motor, Inverter, Control System, Vehicle Stability, Safety center-of-gravity point (CG) of the vehicle.

  • Integrated Slip-Based Torque Control of Antilock Braking System for In-Wheel Motor Electric Vehicle
    IEEJ Journal of Industry Applications Vol.3 No.4 pp.318–327 DOI: 10.1541/ieejjia.3.318 Paper Integrated Slip-Based Torque Control of Antilock Braking System for In-Wheel Motor Electric Vehicle ∗a) ∗∗ Wen-Po Chiang Non-member, Dejun Yin Non-member ∗ ∗ Manabu Omae Non-member, Hiroshi Shimizu Non-member (Manuscript received March 31, 2013, revised Jan. 17, 2014) In electric vehicles (EVs), cooperative control between a regenerative brake system (RBS) and the conventional hydraulic brake system (HBS) enhances the brake performance and energy regeneration. This paper presents an inte- grated antilock braking control system based on estimating the wheel slip to improve the anti-slip performance of a four wheel drive in-wheel motor EV. A novel anti-slip control method for regenerative braking was developed and inte- grated with a hydraulic antilock braking system (ABS) according to the logic threshold concept. When combined with the features of driving motors, the proposed method can improve the brake performance under slip conditions. Com- parative simulations showed the proposed control approach provided a more effective antilock braking performance than the conventional ABS.

  • On the Analysis and Design of In-Wheel Motor for Vehicle Application
    On the analysis and design of in-wheel motor for vehicle application Dissertation zur Erlangung des akademischen Grades Doktoringenieur (Dr.-Ing.) von M.Sc. Sergey Perekopskiy geb. am 16.01.1988 in Makeevka, Donezka obl., Ukraine genehmigt durch die Fakultät Maschinenbau der Otto-von-Guericke Universität Magdeburg Gutachter: Prof. Dr.-Ing. Roland Kasper Prof. Igor Gorobets Promotionskolloquium am 18.09.2020 For my family II Abstract The revolutionary changes in automotive industry which are based on the following trends in environmental protection, lead to the new requirements that must be met in modern vehicles. Thus, for the automotive industry, electric powered vehicles are becoming an increasingly relevant factor in the competition against climate change. The expert community is united in the opinion that e-mobility is becoming the dominant factor in improving the operating efficiency of vehicles. At the same time, the key aspects of changes in the context of the development of vehicles represent directions that bring serious changes to the traditional automotive industry, especially in its design and technological basis. One special example of a possible way of change represents an in-wheel motor which provides a powerful and compact drive solution for electric vehicles. The in-wheel motor as a modular element of an electric drive has long been known. In-wheel motors for a vehicle have remarkable advantages as compactness and present a wide field of research for possible integration in vehicle structures. Currently, the development of motor-in-wheeled electric transport drives is continuously increasing. However, such a constructive solution for the vehicles could not be implemented until recently for a variety of reasons.

  • Fire Fighter Safety and Emergency Response for Electric Drive and Hybrid Electric Vehicles
    Fire Fighter Safety and Emergency Response for Electric Drive and Hybrid Electric Vehicles Final Report A DHS/Assistance to Firefighter Grants (AFG) Funded Study Prepared by: Casey C. Grant, P.E. Fire Protection Research Foundation The Fire Protection Research Foundation One Batterymarch Park Quincy, MA, USA 02169-7471 Email: [email protected] http://www.nfpa.org/foundation © Copyright Fire Protection Research Foundation May 2010 (This page left intentionally blank) FOREWORD Today's emergency responders are facing unexpected challenges as new uses of alternative energy increase. These renewable power sources save on the use of conventional fuels such as petroleum and other fossil fuels, but they also introduce unfamiliar hazards that require new fire fighting strategies and procedures. Among these alternative energy uses are motor vehicles that utilize electric drive propulsion systems. This study focuses on electric drive and hybrid electric vehicles intended for roadway passenger use, and describes the variety of safety issues that these relatively new vehicles may present involving fire and/or rescue emergency situations either on the roadway or at charging/docking stations (e.g., garages). The safety of fire fighters and other emergency first responder personnel depends on understanding and properly handling these hazards through adequate training and preparation. The goal of this project has been to assemble and widely disseminate core principle and best practice information for fire fighters, fire ground incident commanders, and other emergency first responders to assist in their decision making process at emergencies involving electric drive and hybrid electric vehicles. Methods used include collecting information and data from a wide range of credible sources, along with a one-day workshop of applicable subject matter experts that have provided their review and evaluation on the topic.
