The E-Mobility vehicles will become more and more important on the market. And to the engineering team at Knightec we want to strengthen Model Based System Engineering team within Knightec E-Mobility.

This thesis can be done at our office in Stockholm, Gothenburg, Linköping, Malmö, Örnsköldsvik, Umeå, Uppsala or Västerås

High level description
In the industry standard for e-mobility development of VCB systems together with the complete driveline and connected ECU control units. MATLAB and Simulink is a powerful tool for engineers to create a model based system engineering platform. Knightec e-mobility platform needs to get its own tools.
How would a tool work that could create electrical dimensioning of a e-powertrain based on tractive effort and vehicle speed.
For this, the student will work closely together with the Knightec E-Mobility team to explore the future together.

Project Description
The project aims to create a simulation tool box that can be used for a versatile project base for E-Mobility projects. Torque vectoring technology is an example of a vehicle’s ability to vary torque in each wheel. Torque vectoring systems enable a car to transfer torque between a given wheel or axle based on cornering. This technology concept is designed to improve steering response and handling while also improving vehicle dynamics. To create such a function or similar in a simulated environment will save cost but most important the engineers will not have to be outside on a test track during rainy days. Simulation tools are created by engineers for engineers.
The tool can be made in MATLAB or similar software with a graphical interface that can plot a standardized report.

The objectives of the thesis is:
• What is the best system approach for this?
• What are the base tools
• How will we use them?
• What is a good set up to work with a broad project portfolio?

Who are we looking for?
We are looking for someone that is interested in e-mobility and power electronics. This work is suitable for master or bachelor students in Electrical Engineering, Vehicle Engineering physics or a similar field.

Purpose
The aim of the thesis project is to explore ways to make E-Mobility engineering stronger at together.

Important information to you who will apply for a thesis project

  • The Thesis is to be done during the spring term of 2023
  • If you would like to co-write your thesis, both of you need to apply separately and conduct the tests. Just make sure to inform us in your application that you would like to write in pairs and who your thesis partner is.
  • We will update you regarding the process via e-mail so make sure to stay tuned
