Maximum Control Structure of a Series Hybrid Electric Vehicle using Supercapacitor

Philippe Barrade

The main problem with Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEV) is the management of batteries. We suggest to replace the batteries by an energy storage ystem made of supercapacitors on a series HEV with two traction drive. A maximum Control Structure (MCS) of such a ...

Simulation of a Series Hybrid Electric Vehicle based on Energetic Macroscopic Representation

Philippe Barrade

The simulation of a series HEV (hybrid electric vehicle) is suggested by using the Energetic Macroscopic Representation (EMR). Simplified models are used in a first step. They lead to the simulation of an overall HEV with its control. The system is decompo ...

An Architecture for the Integration of Internet and Telecommunication Services

Jean-Pierre Hubaux

In this paper, we propose an architecture for hybrid services, i.e., services that span many network technologies, especially the PSTN and the Internet. These services will play an important role in the future, because they leverage on the existing infrast ...
