Prerequisites
Mechanics, Automatic Control, Optimization, Matlab/SimulinkIntended learning outcomes
A course participant should after the course:
- have knowledge about traditional and hybrid powertrain configurations.
- be able to identify and enumerate different hybrid drive system configurations.
- have knowledge about and experience from working with models for components in advanced drivelines
- be able to discuss the advantages and disadvantages with different hybrid configurations
- be able to analyze complex powertrains from the perspective of energy efficient ground vehicle propulsion.
- have knowledge about tools for energy optimization of complex powertrains.
- have experience from using tools for energy optimization of complex powertrains
- have knowledge and experience in the synthesis and model implementations of new concepts for komplex powertrains
Course content
This course treats the longitudinal behavior of road vehicles and gives a framework for analyzing and optimizing the energy consumption. Both traditional and new powertrain configurations (like hybrid and fuel cell vehicles) are treated. Realistic mathematical models are developed for the components and they are compiled to complete vehicle systems. These are then analyzed and used to develop optimized energy management strategies.
Several case studies are used to exemplify the methodology and show the principles and challenges associated with analyzing and optimizing complex powertrains.
Teaching and working methods
The course is organized in lectures and computer exercises for completing hand in assignments.

Regulations (apply to LiU in its entirety)
The university is a government agency whose operations are regulated by legislation and ordinances, which include the Higher Education Act and the Higher Education Ordinance. In addition to legislation and ordinances, operations are subject to several policy documents. The Linköping University rule book collects currently valid decisions of a regulatory nature taken by the university board, the vice-chancellor and faculty/department boards.
LiU’s rule book for education at first-cycle and second-cycle levels is available at http://styrdokument.liu.se/Regelsamling/Innehall/Utbildning_pa_grund-_och_avancerad_niva.
