Modelling of An Electric Tractor Powertrain using MATLAB/Simulink
Abstract: Lithium-ion battery pack technology is the current trend in the automotive industry. For this study, the authors have selected NMC 18650 lithium-ion cells to design a battery pack for electric tractors and simulating the electric tractor powertrain model to gauge and size the battery pack configuration parameters. The tractor parameters have been selected by comparing with some Indian and Japanese electric tractors. The simulation has been carried out using MATLAB/Simulink …

Downshifting Strategy Using Gear Skipping During Normal Braking in Electric Vehicles Equipped with AMT
Abstract: In this paper, the regenerative braking method using optimal downshifting is investigated to increase the recovering energy during normal braking in an electric vehicle equipped with Automatic Manual Transmission (AMT). First, the modeling of the electric vehicle powertrain and consideration of brake force distribution was carried out. Based on these, the method to select general downshifting points was mentioned in the electric vehicle. Second, the effect of power interruption on …

AI-Driven Topology Optimization of Woven Fiber-Reinforced Composite Chassis Structures for Electric Vehicles Under Crash Loading
Abstract: The structural design of an electric vehicle (EV) chassis represents a unique engineering challenge to achieve minimal weight while meeting occupants' safety requirements during high-energy crash conditions without compromise to the battery housing's integrity or the geometrical constraints of the electric powertrain package. In this paper, a single framework is proposed to integrate physics-based artificial intelligence (AI) surrogate models using PINNs, CNN-accelerated topology optimization, and FEA to design woven fiber-reinforced …
