A thoroughly revised third edition of this widely praised,
bestselling textbook presents a comprehensive systems-level
perspective of electric and hybrid vehicles with emphasis on
technical aspects, mathematical relationships and basic design
guidelines. The emerging technologies of electric vehicles require
the dedication of current and future engineers, so the target
audience for the book is the young professionals and students in
engineering eager to learn about the area. The book is concise and
clear, its mathematics are kept to a necessary minimum and it
contains a well-balanced set of contents of the complex technology.
Engineers of multiple disciplines can either get a broader overview
or explore in depth a particular aspect of electric or hybrid
vehicles. Additions in the third edition include simulation-based
design analysis of electric and hybrid vehicles and their
powertrain components, particularly that of traction inverters,
electric machines and motor drives. The technology trends to
incorporate wide bandgap power electronics and reduced rare-earth
permanent magnet electric machines in the powertrain components
have been highlighted. Charging stations are a critical component
for the electric vehicle infrastructure, and hence, a chapter on
vehicle interactions with the power grid has been added. Autonomous
driving is another emerging technology, and a chapter is included
describing the autonomous driving system architecture and the
hardware and software needs for such systems. The platform has been
set in this book for system-level simulations to develop models
using various softwares used in academia and industry, such as
MATLAB (R)/Simulink, PLECS, PSIM, Motor-CAD and Altair Flux.
Examples and simulation results are provided in this edition using
these software tools. The third edition is a timely revision and
contribution to the field of electric vehicles that has reached
recently notable markets in a more and more environmentally
sensitive world.
