Job Description
Transport is at the core of modern society. Imagine using your expertise to shape sustainable transport and infrastructure solutions for the future. If you seek to make a difference on a global scale, working with next-gen technologies and the sharpest collaborative teams, then we could be a perfect match.
Background
In contrast to conventional fossil-fueled vehicles and pure battery electric vehicles, fuel cell hybrid electric vehicles (FCHEVs) provide an excellent balance between energy efficiency and driving performance. With a hybrid powertrain, the wheel power demand can be flexibly allocated between the fuel cell system (FCS) and the energy storage system (ESS), i.e., a battery pack, to achieve improved fuel economy. This additional degree of freedom in power provision, however, requires efficient onboard energy management strategies (EMSs), which largely determine FCHEV performance.
The equivalent consumption minimization strategy (ECMS...
