The Simulation of a Full Electric Vehicle Using the City Cycle

Abstract

In this present study, the design and simulation of an electric vehicle again commonly being started to be used in twenty-first century have been carried out by Matlab program. A full-electric vehicle has been used as a model. In modeling, the dimensions of a vehicle suitable for use and the technical features of an electric motor used in today's electric vehicle technology have been utilized. In this model, a DC motor for the propulsion of the electric vehicle, a battery with sufficient quality as a source of energy and Urban Dinamometre Driving Schedule (UDDS) city cycle as a cycle has been used. According to this cycle, forces make the vehicle move and resistance forces preventing its movement have been calculated. Besides, a data file which describes the movement characteristic of the vehicle has been composed. This file brings also simultaneously the rates of power and torque which the vehicle needs. For the same cycle, torque, power and current changes of the electric motor used for the propulsion of the vehicle have been obtained depending upon time.

E-bikers’ braking behavior: Results from a naturalistic cycling study

“…As another approach, design of embedded systems to maximize stopping capacity based on longitudinal wheel slip or loading would be more easily implemented on an e-bike than on a conventional bike. Adoption of an anti-lock braking system to avoid locking the wheels and pitch-over, as proposed by Enisz et al (2014) and in their prototypes, or implementation of systems like integrated braking systems, to automatically redistribute the brake force between the front and rear wheels, may offer effective solutions for decreasing stopping distance without compromising stability.…”

“…Despite the importance of braking for cycling safety and the popularity of e-bikes, very few authors have studied braking behaviour on bicycles: Parkin and Rotheram (2010) studied the influence of road gradient on braking deceleration, Lie and Sung (2010) investigated the relationship between brake force distribution and maximum deceleration, while Beck (2009) and Wilson (2004) demonstrated the stopping superiority of the front brake over the rear brake. Other studies have investigated braking assistance systems such as haptic-based braking assistance for road bicycles (Corno et al 2017), and an anti-lock braking prototype for bicycles (Enisz et al 2014;. Related research for powered two-wheelers, which share similar stability constraints as single-track vehicles, studied riding dynamics and stability during braking manoeuvres (Cossalter et al 2004) and braking patterns with naturalistic data (Baldanzini et al 2016).…”

Tümüyle Elektrikli Binek Tipli Bir Araçta Yuvarlanma Direnci Değişiminin İvmelenme Performansı ve Transmisyon Kayıplarına Etkisi Üzerine Bir Çalışma

“…Literatürde yuvarlanma direncinin taşıt performansına etkisini gösteren ve elektrikli araçların modellenmesine yönelik yakın geçmişte pek çok çalışma bulunmaktadır [10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19]. Elektrikli aracın modellenmesi amacıyla ADVISOR (Advanced Vehicle Simulator) programı kullanılmıştır.…”

Detailed simulation of regenerative braking of BLDC motor for electric vehicles

“…Battery is the most important part of electric vehicles. With this, the electrical energy is stored and the energy supply of the whole system is ensured (Suvak and Erşan, 2016). During regenerative braking, it is also the place where the energy produced is stored (Junzhi et al, 2014).…”
