Quadratic Surrogate Attractor for Particle Swarm Optimization
Maurizio Clemente, Marcello Canova
This paper presents a particle swarm optimization algorithm that leverages surrogate modeling to replace the conventional global best solution with the minimum of an n-dimensional…
Meta-analysis of Life Cycle Assessments for Li-Ion Batteries Production Emissions
Maurizio Clemente, Prapti Maharjan, Mauro Salazar +1
This paper investigates the environmental impact of Li-Ion batteries by quantifying manufacturing-related emissions and analyzing how electricity mix and production scale affect em…
Two-wheel-driven Electric Superbike Powertrain Optimization
Adelmo Niccolai, Maurizio Clemente, Theo Hofman +1
In this paper, we propose an optimization framework for the powertrain design of a two-wheel-driven electric superbike, minimizing energy consumption. Specifically, we jointly opti…
A Framework to Estimate Life Cycle Emissions for Vehicle-Integrated Photovoltaic Systems
Maurizio Clemente, Luuk van Sundert, Mauro Salazar +1
This paper presents a framework to estimate the environmental impact of solar electric vehicles, accounting for the emissions caused by photovoltaic system production as well as ve…
Concurrent Design Optimization of Powertrain Component Modules in a Family of Electric Vehicles
Maurizio Clemente, Mauro Salazar, Theo Hofman
We present a modeling and optimization framework to design powertrains for a family of electric vehicles, focusing on the concurrent sizing of their motors and batteries. Whilst ta…
