Course Description
This course will introduce the electrical and mechanical aspects of EVs, including the fundamentals, design, control, modeling, battery and other energy storage, electric propulsion systems. It will cover vehicle dynamics, energy sources, electric propulsion systems, regenerative braking, parallel and series hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) design, EV charging and infrastructure, impacts to environment and economy, and practical design considerations.
Intended Learning Outcomes
CILO-1: Apply fundamental knowledge on electrical and mechanical aspects for the systems in Evs.
CILO-2: Identify and analyze systems in EVs including vehicle dynamics, energy sources, electric propulsion systems, regenerative braking, etc.
CILO-3: Design the EVs for practical use with consideration about EV charging and infrastructure, impacts to environment and economy.
