Structures for Architects: Planning, Analysis and Design explains the basics of structural systems to help architects conceive the structural form and analyze and design in a comprehensive manner. The objective is not to explain the structural analysis and design of complex systems in detail but to explain the analysis and design of structural members in a simple and elementary approach. Presenting basic concepts in a simple manner, the book deals with the presentation of structural systems used in the construction of public buildings. Architectural design, urban planning guidelines, basic rules of fire safety, and earthquake-resistant design are discussed in a conceptual manner. Examples included throughout the book shall help students, faculty, and practicing architects understand structural analysis and design in a straightforward manner, and exercise problems are presented to aid in the understanding of the contents presented. This book serves as a useful reference material for both academicians and practicing professionals.Strengthens the capacity of architects in fundamental structural analysis and design.Presents numerical examples and exercises for self-study in each chapter, including MATLAB® examples.Includes the basics for understanding architectural design, urban planning, fire safety, and earthquake-resistant design.Examines construction planning and management through CPM and PERT methods to aid in understanding the fundamentals of project management.

In order to create a reliable, safe and cost-effective electric vehicle with acceptable range, battery charging time, battery life and driving performance, it is important to design optimised and compatible components and charging systems.This book offers an overview of the design, modeling, simulation and control of electric vehicle components and charging technologies. Chapters address the fundamentals of electric vehicles and the essentials of their power electronics components, discuss the principles of design, modeling, simulation and control, and then apply those principles to electric machines, drives and battery management systems. Where relevant, MATLAB/Simulink models are included. Further topics include fault tolerant operation, wired and wireless charging systems, power quality control, and grid integration. Current regulations and standards are also addressed.Electric Vehicle Components and Charging Technologies: Design, modeling, simulation and control is intended to be suitable for newcomers to the field, though it assumes an engineering background. The discussions of emerging concepts, methods and realisation are also intended to be thought-provoking for more established researchers, engineers and industry professionals.

This book compiles the refereed papers presented during the 2nd Flexible Electronics for Electric Vehicles (FlexEV - 2021). This book incorporates economical and efficient electric vehicle driving and the latest innovations in electric vehicle technology with their paradigms and methods that employ knowledge in the research community.
