Special Session #5: EMR and Other Graphic Descriptions

Co-organizer: Walter Lhomme, University of Lille, France
Co-organizer: Bedatri Moulik, Amity University, India

 

Call For Papers

One of the key issues in the development of electrified vehicles is the control design of such complex systems, which are composed of multi-sources and multi-subsystems. Model-based control design approaches provide an efficient mean to meet the challenges in front of designers, such as shrinking development times and growing design complexity. At the system modeling step, different graphical modeling formalisms can be used, such as Bond Graph, Power Oriented Graph (POG), and Energetic Macroscopic Representation (EMR). These graphical formalisms draw on various principles and highlight different properties of multiphysical systems. As an energy-based graphical tool, EMR respects integral causality, highlights energy properties of the power components such as energy storage, energy conversion and energy distribution, and provides a global energetic view of systems. Due to these features, inversion-based control can be deduced from EMR  (http://www.emrwebsite.org/).

The aim of this special session is to present different graphical descriptions, including EMR, applied to electrified vehicles (xEV) to highlight the interest of each one.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
– Graphical tools for modeling;
– Graphical tools for control design;
– Graphical toolbox or software for study and/or control of electrical or/and hybrid vehicles;
– Graphical interface for simulation of electrical or/and hybrid vehicles.
