Try This Brand New Analog Computer

Cars That Think

Engineers connected potentiometers and op-amps to set up representations of knotty differential equations and read the solutions as varying output voltages. Multiple THATs can be chained together if more processing power is required, and a hybrid connection port is provided to make it easier to interface a THAT with a digital computer.

Electric Vehicle Project Ideas | Ph.D., MTech, MSc | Electrical, Management, Mechanical & More…

Get Electric Vehicle

The idea here is that you can connect your EV to the power grid and flow power from your EV to the Grid. Simulation of the vehicle to a grid-connected system at a private charging station and finding how to flatten the load curve. But if you use the models available in MATLAB, then the study would be a bit easier.
