Automobiles have played an important role in the shaping of the
human civilization for over a century and continue to play a
crucial role today. The design, construction, and performance of
automobiles have evolved over the years. For many years, there has
been a strong shift toward electrification of automobiles. It
started with the by-wire systems where more efficient
electro-mechanical subsystems started replacing purely mechanical
devices, e.g., anti-lock brakes, drive-by-wire, and cruise control.
Over the last decade, driven by a strong push for fuel efficiency,
pollution reduction, and environmental stewardship, electric and
hybrid electric vehicles have become quite popular. In fact, almost
all the automobile manufacturers have adopted strategies and
launched vehicle models that are electric and/or hybrid. With this
shift in technology, employers have growing needs for new talent in
areas such as energy storage and battery technology, power
electronics, electric motor drives, embedded control systems, and
integration of multi-disciplinary systems. To support these needs,
universities are adjusting their programs to train students in
these new areas of expertise. For electric and hybrid technology to
deliver superior performance and efficiency, all sub-systems have
to work seamlessly and in unison every time and all the time. To
ensure this level of precision and reliability, modeling and
simulation play crucial roles during the design and development
cycle of electric and hybrid vehicles. Simscape, a Matlab/Simulink
toolbox for modeling physical systems, is an ideally suited
platform for developing and deploying models for systems and
sub-systems that are critical for hybrid and electric vehicles.
This text will focus on guiding the reader in the development of
models for all critical areas of hybrid and electric vehicles.
There are numerous texts on electric and hybrid vehicles in the
market right now. A majority of these texts focus on the relevant
technology and the physics and engineering of their operation. In
contrast, this text focuses on the application of some of the
theories in developing models of physical systems that are at the
core of hybrid and electric vehicles. Simscape is the tool of
choice for the development of these models. Relevant background and
appropriate theory are referenced and summarized in the context of
model development with significantly more emphasis on the model
development procedure and obtaining usable and accurate results.
