Performance Investigations and Optimisation Analyses into All-Electric Motorcycle Dynamics

建模和仿真在汽车的优化和评估中发挥着重要作用。随着主动车辆传动系统的最新发展和道路车辆使用电力推进的趋势，最优的功率分配方式已经成为一个重要的研究领域，因为它与汽油驱动的方式有很大的不同。主动力矩分配的汽车表现出更好的操控性和稳定性，而且有可能通过更好的功率分配来降低能源消耗。原则上，摩托车可以在前轮施加一些驱动力矩，目的是增加低摩擦表面的牵引力。研究扭矩分布对摩托车操纵性和动力性的影响需要研究。PHD的总体目标是开发基于先进摩托车模型的方法和工具，用于模拟车辆行为和通过进行完整的参数研究来优化电动摩托车的性能

Modelling and simulation are playing an instrumental role in the optimisation and evaluation of automotive vehicles. With recent developments in active vehicle drivelines and the trend towards the use of electric propulsion in road vehicles, the optimal way to distribute power has become an important area of research, as it is very different to its petrol driven counterparts. Automobiles with Active Torque Distribution demonstrate improved handling and stability, and there is the possibility that energy consumption could be reduced through better distribution of power. In principle, motorcycles that can apply some of the drive torque at the front wheel exist, with the aim of increasing tractive force on low-friction surfaces. Research is required to investigate the effects of torque distribution on the handling and power efficiency of motorcycles.The overall aim of the PhD is to develop methods and tools based on advanced motorcycle models for the simulation of vehicle behaviour and for performance optimisation of electric motorcycles by conducting complete parameter studies
