SusMob - Sustainable Mobility

Title: SusMob - Sustainable Mobility

Principal investigator: Paulo Pereirinha

Dates start/end: 2017 / ----

Synopsis

This project is part of the continuity of the activities of the FCT MESMO-EV project and the IEEE VPPC2014 conference, maintaining the concern to contribute to a more sustainable mobility, in particular through electric propulsion in vehicles. Thus, the main objectives are:

1. Enhance the simulation and emulation capability with hardware-in-the-loop of electric vehicle power and traction systems, including multiple energy sources and charging management.
2. To seek and strengthen collaboration in this area with groups of foreign institutions, namely the University of Lille, University of Oviedo and the University of Vigo;
3. Maintaining the visibility and collaboration of INESCC in this area, namely through:

• Its representation in the Portuguese Electric Vehicle Association (APVE), in the Technical Electrotechnical Standardization Commission, CTE 69 - "Electrical Systems for Electric Road Vehicles" and Technical Commission CT 146 - "Electric Road Vehicles".

• Submission of articles and communications and participation in international conferences of reference in the area of sustainable mobility.

• Participation in scientific commissions of conferences and organization of special editions of reference journals.

• Participation in the evaluation of national and international projects.
