Electric vehicles

IEEE Spectrum, 1992
The renewed interest in electric vehicles (EVs) in the wake of the California Air Resources Board mandate that 2% of the vehicles lighter than 3750 lb (1700 kg) sold by each manufacturer in that state in 1998 be zero-emission vehicles is examined. The reasons why replacing an internal combustion vehicle (ICV) with an electrically powered equivalent ...

Electric vehicles, hybrid electric vehicles and fuel cell electric vehicles : state of the art and perspectives

Annales de Chimie Science des Matériaux, 2001
Abstract In urban areas, due to their beneficial effects on the environment, electric vehicles, hybrid electric vehicles and fuel cell electric vehicles are an important factor for the improvement of traffic and more particularly for a healthier environment. We are quite rapidly reaching the end of the cheap oil era. This could happen around 2010 and

Prospects for electric vehicles

IEEE Aerospace and Electronic Systems Magazine, 1990
The state-of-the-art of electric vehicles (EVs) is discussed with examples of prototype vehicles-Electric G-Van, Chrysler TEVan, Eaton DSEP, and Ford/GE ETX-II. The acceleration, top speed, and range of these electric vehicles are delineated to demonstrate their performance capabilities, which are comparable with conventional internal combustion engine

Hybrid Electric Vehicles

2004
Ultracapacitors are now beginning to be applied in low-end hybrid electric vehicles for primarily idle-stop feature. In reality, an idle-stop system is not a true hybrid electric vehicle, rather a microhybrid, since it applies no electric torque to the vehicle-driven wheels.

Batteries for Electric and Hybrid-Electric Vehicles

Annual Review of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering, 2010
Batteries have powered vehicles for more than a century, but recent advances, especially in lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries, are bringing a new generation of electric-powered vehicles to the market. Key barriers to progress include system cost and lifetime, and derive from the difficulty of making a high-energy, high-power, and reversible ...

Electric Vehicle Components

Proceedings of NORTHCON '94, 2002
The author points out that there is now an apparent acceptance by the auto industries in the world of the electric car event and large financial commitments to its developments. What is still prominently missing is the availability and mass production of high performance batteries.

On the Values of Vehicle-to-Grid Electricity Selling in Electric Vehicle Sharing

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2018
Recent years have witnessed a rapid growth in the mass adoption of vehicle sharing systems across the world. Among various vehicle sharing systems, electric vehicle (EV) sharing is considered as the most effective means in reducing fossil fuel consumption and alleviating urban transportation problems.

Intelligent monitoring of electric vehicle

2009 IEEE/ASME International Conference on Advanced Intelligent Mechatronics, 2009
This paper deals with a residual generation for actuators fault detection and isolation (FDI) of electric vehicle with decentralized control. The FDI approach is model based diagnosis, where the modeling step is done using bond graph theory, in order to model separately the considered vehicle components with their nonlinearity, then to show explicitly ...
