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. A BMS with low cost, high efficiency, etc. There are two possibilities for your thesis.

The First Million-Transistor Chip: the Engineers’ Story

Cars That Think

Here, however, the plan was to make it possible for users to bypass the SRAM and attach the processor directly to a DRAM, which would allow the chip to be designed into low-cost systems as well as to address very large data structures. Once the power pin was connected, the chip ran easily at 40 MHz. They wanted us to self-test.

How Carmakers Are Responding to the Plug-In Hybrid Opportunity

Tony Karrer Delicious EVdriven

The F6 DM uses ferrous batteries, with no lithium content, that BYD says are high-energy density and low cost. But Fukui said he saw no significant value in researching plug-in hybrid models, which can be recharged by connecting to a power plug. BYD also developed the motors and software for the system.
