In this study, to investigate the energy storage characteristics of EVs, we first established a single EV virtual energy storage (EVVES) model based on the energy storage characteristics of EVs. We then further integrated four types of EVs within the region to form EV clusters (EVCs) and constructed an EVC virtual energy storage (VES) model to obtain the dynamic charging and discharging boundaries of the EVCs. Next, based on the dispatch framework for the participation of renewable energy sources (RESs) and loads in the distribution network, we established a dual-objective optimization dispatch model, with the objectives of minimizing system operating costs and load fluctuations. We solved this model with NSGA-II and TOPSIS, which guided and optimized the charging and discharging of EVCs. Finally, the simulation results show that the system operating cost was reduced by 7.81%, and the peak-to-valley difference of the load was reduced by 3.83% after optimization. The system effectively achieves load peak shaving and valley filling, improving economic efficiency.","PeriodicalId":507038,"journal":{"name":"World Electric Vehicle Journal","volume":"25 8","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141925282","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To guarantee the safe operation of PEMFCs in complex environments, it is essential to conduct related sealing research. The structure of the fuel cell sealing system is complex, with components in close contact, and identifying factors that affect its sealing performance is crucial for the development and application of the cells. This paper briefly describes the sealing mechanism of PEMFCs and introduces four typical sealing structures. It considers both the assembly and operation processes, summarizing assembly errors, sealing gaskets, and sealing leaks as well as vibration, cyclic temperature and humidity, and cyclic assembly. The research status of the sealing system in simulations and experiments is reviewed in detail.

{"title":"An Intelligent Attack Detection Framework for the Internet of Autonomous Vehicles with Imbalanced Car Hacking Data","authors":"S. Alshathri, A. Sayed, E. E. Hemdan","doi":"10.3390/wevj15080356","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.3390/wevj15080356","url":null,"abstract":"The modern Internet of Autonomous Vehicles (IoVs) has enabled the development of autonomous vehicles that can interact with each other and their surroundings, facilitating real-time data exchange and communication between vehicles, infrastructure, and the external environment. The lack of security procedures in vehicular networks and Controller Area Network (CAN) protocol leaves vehicles exposed to intrusions. One common attack type is the message injection attack, which inserts fake messages into original Electronic Control Units (ECUs) to trick them or create failures. Therefore, this paper tackles the pressing issue of cyber-attack detection in modern IoV systems, where the increasing connectivity of vehicles to the external world and each other creates a vast attack surface. The vulnerability of in-vehicle networks, particularly the CAN protocol, makes them susceptible to attacks such as message injection, which can have severe consequences. To address this, we propose an intelligent Intrusion detection system (IDS) to detect a wide range of threats utilizing machine learning techniques. However, a significant challenge lies in the inherent imbalance of car-hacking datasets, which can lead to misclassification of attack types. To overcome this, we employ various imbalanced pre-processing techniques, including NearMiss, Random over-sampling (ROS), and TomLinks, to pre-process and handle imbalanced data. Then, various Machine Learning (ML) techniques, including Logistic Regression (LR), Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA), Naive Bayes (NB), and K-Nearest Neighbors (k-NN), are employed in detecting and predicting attack types on balanced data. We evaluate the performance and efficacy of these techniques using a comprehensive set of evaluation metrics, including accuracy, precision, F1_Score, and recall. This demonstrates how well the suggested IDS detects cyberattacks in external and intra-vehicle vehicular networks using unbalanced data on vehicle hacking. Using k-NN with various resampling techniques, the results show that the proposed system achieves 100% detection rates in testing on the Car-Hacking dataset in comparison with existing work, demonstrating the effectiveness of our approach in protecting modern vehicle systems from advanced threats.","PeriodicalId":507038,"journal":{"name":"World Electric Vehicle Journal","volume":"18 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141926283","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Hybrid energy-storage systems (HESSs), comprising a combination of batteries and supercapacitors (SCs), are increasingly utilized in EVs. Such HESS-equipped EVs typically outperform standard electric vehicles. However, the effective management of power sources to meet varying power demands remains a major challenge in the hybrid electric vehicles. This study presents the development of a MATLAB Simulink model for a hybrid energy-storage system aimed at alleviating the load on batteries during periods of high power demand. Two parallel combinations are investigated: one integrating the battery with a supercapacitor and the other with a photovoltaic (PV) system. These configurations address challenges encountered in EVs, such as power fluctuations and battery longevity issues. Although lead- batteries are commonly used in conjunction with solar PV systems for energy storage, they incur higher operating costs due to the necessity of converters. The findings suggest that the proposed supercapacitor–battery configuration reduces battery peak power consumption by up to 39%. Consequently, the supercapacitor–battery HESS emerges as a superior option, possibly prolonging battery cycle life by mitigating stress induced by fluctuating power exchanges during the charging and discharging phases.","PeriodicalId":507038,"journal":{"name":"World Electric Vehicle Journal","volume":"103 9","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141926463","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this work, the kinematic design was extended with an elastokinematic concept, and the MLTA was designed in CAD and realized as a prototype. It was then integrated into a B-class series-production vehicle by adding masses in different locations of the vehicle to replicate the mass distribution of a BEV. Both objective and subjective vehicle dynamic evaluations were conducted, which included kinematic and compliance tests, constant-radius cornering, straight-line braking, and a frequency response test, as well as subjective evaluations by both expert and normal drivers. These test results were analyzed and compared to a production vehicle. It can be concluded that the vehicle dynamic performance of the MLTA-equipped vehicle is, overall, 0.67 grades lower than that of the comparable production vehicle on a 10-grade scale. According to OEM experts, this deficit can be eliminated by tuning the different components of the MLTA and meeting the tolerance requirements of series production vehicles.","PeriodicalId":507038,"journal":{"name":"World Electric Vehicle Journal","volume":"41 23","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141649021","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We aim to improve the quality of vehicle pedestrian detection and tracking, addressing the challenges that current commercially available autonomous driving technologies face in complex and changing road traffic situations. First, the NMS (non-maximum suppression) algorithm in YOLOv7 is replaced with a modified Soft-NMS algorithm to ensure that targets can be accurately detected at high densities, and second, the CCBA (coordinate channel attention module) attention mechanism is incorporated to improve the feature extraction and perception capabilities of the network. Finally, a multi-scale feature network is introduced to extract features of small targets more accurately. Finally, the MobileNetV3 lightweight module is introduced into the feature extraction network of DeepSort, which not only reduces the number of model parameters and network complexity, but also improves the tracking performance of the target. The experimental results show that the improved YOLOv7 algorithm improves the average detection accuracy by 3.77% compared to that of the original algorithm; on the MOT20 dataset, the refined DeepSort model achieves a 1.6% increase in MOTA and a 1.9% improvement in MOTP; in addition, the model volume is one-eighth of the original algorithm.

Such advancement encourages various novel applications, including in the field of operations research. This study introduces a novel way to utilize regression machine learning models to predict the objectives of vehicle routing problems that are solved using a genetic algorithm. Previous studies have generally discussed how (1) operations research methods are used independently to generate optimized solutions and (2) machine learning techniques are used independently to predict values from a given dataset. Some studies have discussed the collaborations between operations research and machine learning fields as follows: (1) using machine learning techniques to generate input data for operations research problems, (2) using operations research techniques to optimize the hyper-parameters of machine learning models, and (3) using machine learning to improve the quality of operations research algorithms. This study differs from the types of collaborative studies listed above. This study focuses on the prediction of the objective of the vehicle routing problem directly given the input and output data, without optimizing the problem using operations research algorithms. This study introduces a straightforward framework that captures the input data characteristics for the vehicle routing problem. The proposed framework is applied by generating the input and output data using the genetic algorithm and then using regression machine learning models to predict the obtained objective values.

While cameras capture detailed color and texture features, they lack depth information compared to LiDAR. Multimodal detection combining both can improve results but incurs significant computational overhead, affecting real-time performance. To address these challenges, this paper presents a real-time multimodal fusion model called Fast Transfusion that combines the benefits of LiDAR and camera sensors and reduces the computational burden of their fusion. Specifically, our Fast Transfusion method uses QConv (Quick Convolution) to replace the convolutional backbones compared to other models. QConv concentrates the convolution operations at the feature map center, where the most information resides, to expedite inference. It also utilizes deformable convolution to better match the actual shapes of detected objects, enhancing accuracy. And the model incorporates EH Decoder (Efficient and Hybrid Decoder) which decouples multiscale fusion into intra-scale interaction and cross-scale fusion, efficiently decoding and integrating features extracted from multimodal data. Furthermore, our proposed semi-dynamic query selection refines the initialization of object queries. On the KITTI 3D object detection dataset, our proposed approach reduced the inference time by 36 ms and improved 3D AP by 1.81% compared to state-of-the-art methods.","PeriodicalId":507038,"journal":{"name":"World Electric Vehicle Journal","volume":"21 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141652715","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To solve this problem, the maximum stroke difference of left and right cylinders and the minimum maximum cylinder pressure are the optimization objectives, and the position of cylinder hinge point is the design variable. The multi-objective optimization design of articulated steering system is carried out by using the particle swarm optimization algorithm. After optimization, the maximum pressure of the steering system is reduced by 13.5%, and the oscillation amplitude is reduced by 16%, so the optimization effect is obvious. The dynamic characteristics of the hydraulic steering system under different loads, such as pressure and flow rate, are obtained through field steering tests of wheel loaders. The results show that the load has an important effect on the pressure response of the system, and the causes and influencing factors of pressure and flow fluctuation are determined. The relationship between mileage and hydrogen consumption is obtained, which provides data support for vehicle control strategy. The high-pressure overflow power consumption accounts for 60% of the total work, and the work lost on the steering gear reaches 36 kJ.
