Overview

Teaching, research and practice - we connect

The researcher will participate in a project under the NCCR Automation consortium, in collaboration with Principal Investigators from the School of Engineering and Environment at FHNW and the Institute of Dynamic Systems and Control (Department of Mechanical and Process Engineering) ETHZ. The research project is dedicated to designing multi-objective controllers to optimize the efficiency, reliability and lifespan of electric vehicles. The researcher will address the challenge of defining reliability and lifespan models for electric vehicle components, including batteries, converters and capacitors. They will utilize various time and frequency domain control techniques to integrate these sustainability criteria into the design phase. They will also establish optimal, reconfigurable operating profiles for different driving conditions, highlighting the controller's adaptability. The researcher w...
