Report describing the customers’ perception of the SilverStream demonstrator vehicle
(opens in new window)
The deliverable D6.5 will present the validation results of the silverstream vehicle in realistic scenarios with involving the end users perception.Relevant aspects described in the report are: -the improved accessibility and comfort , the design of the doors,
- improved manoeuvrability and steering functions during parking,
-HMI aspects,-the Intelligent Control System with on-air gesture recognition,
-subjective perception of the advanced encryption technologies.
Analysis of different propulsion architectures and development of electric motors
(opens in new window)
The report for D4.1 will consist of the analysis of the different drivetrain architectures with the focus on the pros and cons for the solutions with a gearless direct drive electric motor, motor with fixed mechanical gear (of different ratio) and other details such as available space for power electronics and brake for different architecture options. Different solutions will be compared in terms of price, weight and energy efficiency.
Body cluster: prototype for LEV
(opens in new window)
"The design of the ""Body cluster"" will be finally released through the following steps: 1) schematic entry, 2)PCB layout, 3)production and assembly. Particular attention will be devoted the engineering aspects in order to provide an affordable cost solution."
Vehicle Management System: prototype for LEV
(opens in new window)
The design of the VMS will be accomplished, through a well assessed design flow, thus leading to the release of a fully functional prototypes. The system will be developed in a “absolutely flat” mechanical housing with the aim to simplify its installation while optimising the vehicle’s centre of gravity.
HESS performance test report and experimental demonstration
(opens in new window)
This report will present the test concept of the HESS components designed T 3.1 and T3.2: with focus on the three test phases:
-testing the battery with the BMS with battery analysers according standards (e.g., IEEE and US standards),
-testing the supercapacitor,
-testing the HESS, including the novel DC/DC converter and the power split controller.
