Abstract(s)
The economical and environment impacts of fossil energies
increased the interest for hybrid, battery and fuel-cell electric
vehicles. Several demanding engineering challenges must be
faced, motivated by different physical domains integration.
This paper aims to present an overview on hybrid (HEV) and
electric vehicles (EV) basic structures and features. In
addition, it will try to point out some of the most relevant
challenges to overcome for HEV and EV may be a solid option
for the mobility issue. New developments in energy storage
devices and energy management systems (EMS) are crucial
to achieve this goal.
