Introduction of the project iCOMPOSE Intelligent Control of Multiple-Motor and Multiple-Storage Full Electric Vehicles
Machan, J. ; Nedoma, P. ; Plíhal, Jiří
This paper introduces the current state of research project related to novel comprehensive energy management system for different drivetrain configurations (with single or multiple electric motors, 1 or 2 energy storage systems), which improves energy efficiency, driveability, safety and comfort of FEVs. This subject is currently investigated within the European Union (EU) funded Seventh Framework Programme (FP7) consortium iCOMPOSE, focused on the development and experimental testing of novel control strategies. Project is conducted by a consortium of public and private research institutions/companies Kompetenzzentrum - Das virtuelle Fahrzeug ,Forschungsgesellschaft mbH; University of Surrey; Lotus Cars Limited; ŠKODA AUTO a.s., Flanders' Drive; Hutchinson SA, AVL List GmbH, Infineon Technologies AG; Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft zur Förderung der angewandten Forschung E.V.

E- Vectoorc Project Introduction
Machan, J. ; Nedoma, P. ; Plíhal, Jiří
This paper introduces the current state of research project related to yaw moment control, anti-lock braking and traction control through the employment of effective torque vectoring strategies for fully electric vehicles. In particular, the adoption of individually controlled electric powertrains with the aim of tuning the vehicle dynamic characteristics in steady-state and transient conditions is discussed. This subject is currently investigated within the European Union (EU) funded Seventh Framework Programme (FP7) consortium E-VECTOORC, focused on the development and experimental testing of novel control strategies. Triennial project is solved by consortium research public and private institutions/companies University of Surrey, Ilmenau University of Technology, Jaguar and Land Rover, Flanders' Drive, Inverto, Fundacion CIDAUT, Instituto Tecnológico de Aragón, ŠKODA AUTO a.s.,VIF Kompetenzzentrum - Das virtuelle Fahrzeug, Forschungsgesellschaft mbH and TRW Automotive Lucas Varity GmbH.

Experience of R&D cooperation between the academic and industrial sectors
Machan, Jaroslav
The fast process of globalisation and, as a result, the increasing pressures of worldwide competition require intensification of cooperation between the academic and industrial sectors at both national and multinational levels. The presentation outlines selected topics and identifies areas that should develop such cooperation and make it more effective as the next step. Primarily, these include: Selected factors limiting cooperation on the academic side, Deficiencies in the methods of approaching joint projects, Different ideas of time constants in joint projects, Clearly set key responsibilities of the respective worksites, Possible factors of reinforcing the cooperation. Furthermore, the presentation outlines ŠKODA Auto Development Department experience of cooperation with the academic sector in joint projects, specifically: R&D projects funded from non-public resources (ŠA's direct contracts, contracts of VW Research), R&D projects funded from public resources (EU, Czech Republic), Training & education projects funded from public resources (esf).
