   Sammanfattning : Modular battery systems based on multilevel inverter (MLI) topologies can possibly overcome some shortcomings of two-level inverters when used for vehicle propulsion. The results presented in this thesis aim to point out the advantages and disadvantages, as well as the technical challenges, of modular vehicle battery systems based on MLIs in comparison to a conventional, two-level IGBT inverter drivetrain.

4. 3. The Four-Quadrant Transducer System : for Hybrid Electric Vehicles

   Författare :Erik Nordlund; Chandur Sadarangani; Hans Kahlen; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Electrical engineering; Electrical Machines; Hybrid Vehicles; Elektroteknik; Electrical engineering; Elektroteknik;

   Sammanfattning : In this thesis a hybrid electrical powertrain called the Four Quadrant Transducer (4QT) has been evaluated through different driving simulations, which later resulted in the manufacture of a prototype. The simulation of a 12 metric ton distribution truck showed that the 4QT system can reduce the fuel consumption by approximately 30 % during the FTP75 drive cycle. LÄS MER

5. 4. Automatic parallel parking : park assist systems for passenger vehicles

   Författare :Pär Degerman; Linköpings universitet; []
   Nyckelord :TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

   Sammanfattning : This thesis discusses how the problem of parking a passenger car can be solved. There ane numerous obstacles when creating a fully or semi automated system for assisting the parking maneuver. The obstacles range from unobtrusive Man Machine Interface issues to robust algorithms for finding features in sensor data. LÄS MER

7. 5. Passenger Car Wheel Aerodynamics

   Författare :Christoffer Landström; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; CFD; tyres; wind tunnel; Passenger car aerodynamics; ground simulation; wheel rotation; drag; wheels;

   Sammanfattning : Current and future requirements for efficiency force the automotive industry to consider all aspects of reducing the energy consumption of road going vehicles. An important aspect of reducing fuel consumption is reduced aerodynamic drag, which at highway cruising speeds is dominating the total drag force for both cars and heavy goods vehicles. LÄS MER
