Module 5: Introduction to Energy Management Systems
Review energy management concepts for hybrid electric powertrains
Introduce principles of optimal control, including Dynamic Programming, the Minimum Principle, and Equivalent Consumption Minimization Strategy (ECMS)
Case studies and design and calibration of optimal energy management strategies with emissions, battery aging and drive quality contraints
Module 6: Electric Propulsion Technology in Motorsports
A little history of electric motorsports, from 1899 to 1999
Electric land speed records
xEV technology in motorsports today
Module 7: BEV laboratory, with focus on regenerative braking
Participants will explore the simulated performance of a BEV using a simulator that is capable of simulating many important aspects of a battery electric vehicle including regenerative braking. Demonstrations and exercises in simulation focus on understanding the interaction of electromechanical regenerative braking with friction braking, with consideration of braking performance, energy recuperation and vehicle stability.
Module 8: HEV laboratory, with focus on optimal energy management
Participants will use a detailed simulation model of a PHEV to explore the design and calibration of energy management strategies. Matlab/Simulink-based code will be provided.

You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.
You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).
Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.
You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).
If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
