Modelling, Dynamics and Control of Electrified Vehicles provides a systematic overview of EV-related key components, including batteries, electric motors, ultracapacitors and system-level approaches, such as energy management systems, multi-source energy optimization, transmission design and control, braking system control and vehicle dynamics control. In addition, the book covers selected advanced topics, including Smart Grid and connected vehicles. This book shows how EV work, how to design them, how to save energy with them, and how to maintain their safety.

The book aims to be an all-in-one reference for readers who are interested in EVs, or those trying to understand its state-of-the-art technologies and future trends.

Advanced Seat Suspension Control System Design for Heavy Duty Vehicles provides systematic knowledge of the advanced seat suspension design and control for heavy duty vehicles.

Nowadays, people are paying more and more attention to ride comfort and the health of drivers and passengers. This is especially for heavy duty vehicles, where drivers/operators are exposed to much severer vibrations than those in passenger vehicles due to a harsh working environment, operating conditions, and long hour driving, etc. Seat suspension systems can effectively help to suppress the high magnitude vibration transmitted to drivers with relatively simple structure and low cost, and hence are widely adopted in heavy duty vehicles.

This book helps researchers and engineers to have a comprehensive understanding of the seat suspension system and to conduct in-depth studies on seat suspension design and control; this book covers a wide range of perspectives about seat suspension design and control methods.

Describes the variable damping, variable stiffness, and, especially, variable inertance seat suspensions Provides the advanced and comprehensive knowledge about semi-active vibration control Introduces the multiple-DOF seat suspension Includes the innovative hybrid seat suspension and nonlinear seat suspension All the introduced designs have been prototyped and experimentally validated Provides Matlab Simulation programming codes

Analysis and Synthesis of Singular Systems provides a base for further theoretical research and a design guide for engineering applications of singular systems. The book presents recent advances in analysis and synthesis problems, including state-feedback control, static output feedback control, filtering, dissipative control, H? control, reliable control, sliding mode control and fuzzy control for linear singular systems and nonlinear singular systems. Less conservative and fresh novel techniques, combined with the linear matrix inequality (LMI) technique, the slack matrix method, and the reciprocally convex combination approach are applied to singular systems.

This book will be of interest to academic researchers, postgraduate and undergraduate students working in control theory and singular systems.

Discusses recent advances in analysis and synthesis problems for linear singular systems and nonlinear singular systems Offers a base for further theoretical research as well as a design guide for engineering applications of singular systems Presents several necessary and sufficient conditions for delay-free singular systems and some less conservative results for time-delay singular systems

This book covers complex issues for a vehicle suspension model, including non-linearities and uncertainties in a suspension model, network-induced time delays, and sampled-data model from a theoretical point of view. It includes control design methods such as neural network supervisory, sliding mode variable structure, optimal control, internal-model principle, feedback linearization control, input-to-state stabilization, and so on. Every control method is applied to the simulation for comparison and verification.Features:Includes theoretical derivation, proof, and simulation verification combined with suspension modelsProvides the vibration control strategies for sampled-data suspension modelsFocuses on the suspensions with time-delays instead of delay-freeCovers all the models related to quarter-, half-, and full-vehicle suspensionsDetails rigorous mathematical derivation process for each theorem supported by MATLAB®-based simulationThis book is aimed at researchers and graduate students in automotive engineering, vehicle vibration, mechatronics, control systems, applied mechanics, and vehicle dynamics.
