The full adoption of Electric Vehicles (EVs) can carry advantages not only in terms of environmental implications but also in relation to alternative business opportunities and new vehicle designs that are impossible with combustion engines. In this seminar some control applications regarding electric vehicles and charging facilities will be discussed. These are mainly torque distribution strategies for in-wheel vehicles and Battery Swapping Stations management.
In the first part of this seminar some of the work conducting to the design and the implementation of a torque distribution strategy over a real prototype are presented. Then, Battery Swapping Stations suitability will be discussed and motivated in comparison to the Battery Charging Station approach. Moreover the application of an MPC to support the management of those facilities will be shown.
Finally a newbie cooperative control scenario between charging facilities will be briefly introduced.
Bio: My name is Ezequiel González Debada, I hold a “Licenciatura” (Spanish long degree) in Industrial Engineering specialized in Industrial Automation by the University of Seville and a Master in Automatics Robotics and Telematics by the University of Seville.
I have been working for a year and a half as a research assistant in tasks related to modeling and control of electric vehicles and to the European project DYMASoS, and I am currently an eligible candidate for starting a PhD at EPFL.
My current research interest includes optimization, MPC, control and coordination of large systems and applications e.g. management of distributed power generation systems, EVs coordination etc.
