Design and Control Methodologies for Electrified and Intelligent Vehicles |
Transportation electrification currently represents a paradigm shift towards more efficient, less polluting and safer vehicles. The urgent need for evolution arises not only concerning the vehicle architecture itself, but includes related control strategies and design procedures as well. This research activity consequently aims at investigating novel approaches for designing the next generation of electrified and connected road vehicles. Control strategies are first presented as fundamental element for electrified vehicles. Not only they need proper development to maximize the fuel and energy economy in the actual operation of the vehicle, but also they play a key role in the correspondent powertrain design. A large design space is subsequently considered for hybrid electric vehicles illustrating the related exploration challenges for identifying optimal designs. Finally, considering a connected mobility scenario is presented as an opportunity to investigate novel control strategies and develop innovative design methodologies for vehicle systems. |

The new aircraft programs, such as the Airbus A350XWB, contain more than 50% by weight of composites. Also, advanced composite materials are well established in space applications. Nowadays, the new technologies, such as Automated Fibre Placement (AFP) brought to the emergence of a new class of composite materials; namely, the Variable Angle Tow (VAT) composites. |
Advanced structural theories in VAT laminates: -The design space improved, due to steered tows are used. - They are necessary to describe complex mechanics inherent to VAT. |

Advanced Diagnostic |
In the next decades, Electro-Hydraulic Servo-Actuators (EHSA) will still be considered as the most reliable technology for primary and secondary flight control systems. For both passengers and cargo fleet, maintenance operations of these units will be still a consistent part of the total aircraft overhaul. For this reason, the development of Advanced Diagnostic System for Failure Recognition in EHSA is of great interest in Maintenance Repairing and Overhaul (MRO) market. This research topic constitutes the basis for an advanced PHM system for the estimation of the Remaining Useful Life (RUL) of fly-by-wire EHSA flight control systems. |
