Next Generation Electrified Vehicles Optimised for the Infrastructure

This book provides insights into current research topics of powertrains for the next generation of electric vehicles as well as related vehicle components (e-axles, transmissions, brake systems, etc.). Further, as the interaction with the charging infrastructure becomes more and more important, also the topic charging is discussed in detail. Finally, communication and control not just within the vehicles but also with the infrastructure are needed and are treated in this book.
