Development and Evaluation of Methodological Framework for Real-World Vehicle Energy Use and Emissions Estimation at Multiple Temporal and Vehicular Scales

CBET-0756263 Frey该提案旨在制定一种一致且详细的方法，用于在不同的时间尺度和车辆尺度上确定和模拟车辆排放。这种方法的成功开发将是规划者和监管者的一个进步，他们经常为目前可用的模型最准确地预测当地/区域车辆排放而奋斗。PI在车载测量领域有着丰富的历史记录，与环境和交通工程领域相结合。该项目似乎组织良好，PI仔细解释了他们的实验，建模和传播计划，包括计划的统计分析的细节和传播计划的相当深入的描述。国内机构列出的资源似乎足以完成拟议的任务。拟议的工作组织得很好，是在最终量化车辆排放物方面迈出的宝贵一步。预算似乎是适当和充足的。提出的FUEMS方法不仅提高了知识水平，而且该项目计划通过在原始研究中隐式地包含一些研究生和本科生来增强培训和学习，并通过在各种课程中包含突破性数据和数据简化过程来进一步提高学生的曝光率。调查结果将通过网页、地方政治组织以及专业组织的介绍和出版物进一步传播。该项目的学生招聘似乎主要是在内部进行的，但将通过学校的少数民族项目办公室进行广告宣传。

CBET- 0756263FreyThe proposal seeks the development of a consistent and well-detailed methodology for the determination and modeling of vehicular emissions on different temporal and vehicular scales. Successful development of such a methodology would be a step forward for planners and regulators who often struggle as to which currently available model may most accurately predict local/regional vehicle emissions. The PIs have a well-documented history in the field of on-board vehicular measurements, meshing the fields of environmental and transportation engineering. The project appears well-organized and the PIs have carefully explained their experimental, modeling, and dissemination plan, including details on planned statistical analysis and a fairly in-depth description of the dissemination plans. The listed resources at the home institution seem more than sufficient to accomplish the proposed tasks. The proposed work is well organized and represents a valuable step forward in the ultimate quantification of vehicular emissions. The budget seems appropriate and sufficient. The FUEMS methodologies proposed not only advance the state-of-knowledge, but the very project plan enhances training and learning by the implicit inclusion of a number graduate and undergraduate students in the raw research, and further student exposure by inclusion of breaking data, and the process of data reduction, in various courses. The results are to be further disseminated through webpages, local political organizations, and presentations and publications via professional organizations. The recruitment of students into the program seems to be mostly in-house, but will be advertised through the school's minority program offices.
