Summary

Over the last decade design techniques for hybrid vehicles have advanced rapidly, with modeling and control playing a key role in these developments. This book provides engineers with the technical knowhow for building hybrid vehicle systems, exploring the connections between modeling and control design, as well as simulation and performance analysis for these vehicles. It offers not only basic information on system configuration and main components, but also details their characteristics and mathematic models. Examples are extracted from the authors extensive hands-on engineering practice at GM and elsewhere.
