    This article belongs to the Special Issue Design, Optimization and Control of Electric Vehicles: (DOCEV)
    Abstract: In this paper, we present a methodology for electrothermal characterization of two configurations: permanent magnet motor and its equivalent to wound rotor. This modeling approach is in the aim to evaluating the different temperatures in different active parts of the two configurations, to choose the type and characteristics of the cooling system t...

    This article belongs to the Special Issue Design, Optimization and Control of Electric Vehicles: (DOCEV)
    Abstract: In this paper, we present a systemic trapezoidal control methodology of a coiled rotor axial flux synchronous motor dedicated to electric traction, taking into account of several constraints such as the speed limit, the energy saving, the cost of the power chain and the reliability of the whole system. Indeed the control law developed allows to imp... Show More

    Abstract: This paper describes the electric parameters determination for Synchronous Motor with Dual Excitation, using the joined method analytic/finite elements. Indeed several models of mutual and principal inductances and electric motor constant are developed analytically and validated by the finite elements method. These models are fortunately parameteri... Show More

    This article belongs to the Special Issue Design, Optimization and Control of Electric Vehicles: (DOCEV)
    Abstract: This paper describes the choice and the design of electric vehicles power train structure reducing considerably the energy consumption. Indeed The converter feeding the motor is naturally with IGBTs leading on the one hand to important losses and on the other hand to many control problems. This structure is replaced by another with electromagnetic ... Show More

    This article belongs to the Special Issue Design, Optimization and Control of Electric Vehicles: (DOCEV)
    Abstract: In this paper, we present an analytic model of the whole motor converter taking in account of several systemic and physical constraints. Being couple to a model of the losses of the power chain and to a model of the mass of the motor, this analytic model puts a problem of conjoined optimization of the consumption and the cost of the motor. This pro... Show More
