Review of online NPTEL course An Electric Vehicle Part 1



About the course:
This course will be a first level course on electric vehicle. Students will be able to understand the operation of battery driven electric vehicle. The course will start with introduction section which will enable the students to understand the focus areas that come under the umbrella of electric vehicles. Then the course will start covering this focus areas one by one such as vehicle dynamics, Motors, Power Electronics, Batteries,Charging etc. The most important part of this course will be that each topic will be analyzed and demonstrated through Matlab Simulink, so that the grip of the subject will be strong and the knowledge acquired will be use able in real time applications.
