1. 21. FE Simulation of protective insulation of catalysts in exhaust after-treatment systems of trucks and buses : Investigation and characterization of catalytic converter support mat material for accurate modeling in finite element simulations

   University essay from

   Author : Manroop Bhattasali; [2022]
   Keywords : Catalytic converter; packaging mats; support mats; compression; friction; hyperelastic; hyperfoam; viscoelastic; canning; finite element;

   Abstract : The increase of new and ever more stringent emission legislation has brought about with it a surge in the demand for more sustainable automotive solutions. This has particularly been the case for automobiles, including heavy-duty vehicles like trucks and buses, with internal combustion engines, which now require the design and manufacturing of more durable and reliable components.

3. 22. Wading Simulations of Complete Heavy-Duty Vehicles

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

   Author : Emma Samuelsson; Sofie Benzler; [2022]
   Keywords : CFD; Volume of Fluid; Wading; Heavy-Duty Vehicles; STAR-CCM ;

   Abstract : Wading is the phenomenon where a vehicle drives through water with a relatively deep water level. Sincea large portion of the vehicle is submerged in water it can affect the driveability and function of individualcomponents. READ MORE

4. 23. Heavy duty EPS and its theoretical requirements

   University essay from KTH/Teknisk mekanik

   Author : Christopher Essén; [2022]
   Keywords : Bachelor Thesis; KTH; Royal Institute of Technology; Vehicular Engineering; Heavy; Duty; EPS; HPS; H-EPS; Trucks; Steering;

   Abstract : In today’s lighter vehicles, EPS has had smaller breakthroughs, but not in heavyduty due to its high initial cost and lack of research. Even though there ispotential in the future when trucks may go electric. READ MORE

5. 24. Optimal Control and Thermal Managementof Heavy-Duty FCHEV Powertrains : Minimizing hydrogen consumption of an FCHEV using numerical optimal control and an integrated energy and thermal management system

   University essay from Linköpings universitet/Fordonssystem

   Author : Daniel Similä; Jonatan Siönäs; [2022]
   Keywords : Control Engineering; Powertrain Engineering; FCHEV; Optimal Control; Thermal Management;

   Abstract : The CO2 emissions from road vehicles must be reduced in order to avoid a 1.5 ◦C global warming. To reduce tailpipe emissions, a strong trend is to electrify powertrains to shift away from the use of fossil fuel. Among alternatives, the fuel cellhybrid electric vehicle (FCHEV) is seen as a promising configuration. READ MORE

6. 25. Enabling a Viable Circular Ecosystem for Electric Vehicle Batteries : The Case of Heavy-Duty Commercial Electric Vehicles

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

   Author : Johan Welltén; [2022]
   Keywords : Business Ecosystems; Blockchain; Circular Economy; Digital Technologies; Heavyduty commercial electric vehicles; Sustainability; Supply Chain Management; Affärsekosystem; Blockkedjeteknik; Cirkulär Ekonomi; Digital Teknik; Tunga och kommersiella elektriska fordon; Hållbarhet; Supply Chain Management.;

   Abstract : Electrification of the automotive sector is emerging, due to the decarbonization of the transport sector, where the lithium-ion battery production is estimated to raise from 70 GWh in 2017 to above 3,600 GWh in 2030 due to the transition to Battery Electric Vehicles (BEV). Challenges arise for Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM) of BEVs, with a need for circularity to extend the life of batteries, upcoming EU battery regulation, digitalization, and uncertainties in value chains due to current external situations, scarcity of material, and supply chain disruptions.
