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…
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…
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…
