Item Design and Build an EVSE(2017-08-07) Micol, Kevin; Cooney, Elaine; Lin, WilliamThis report details how to design and build an electric vehicle charger. The report will follow the SAE J1772 standard and cover the design of the charging and control circuits, the design of the software, building the charger, and testing various aspects of the charger. Schematics, bill of materials, flow diagrams, code, and operation instructions.Item Research and Development of Electric Micro-Bus Vehicle Chassis(2022-12) Coovert, Benjamin; Tovar, Andres; Nematollahi, Khosrow; El-Mounayri, HazimIn this project, a chassis concept has been developed for a small electric vehicle ’minibus’. The vehicle is intended to be used as a transport between agricultural locations in Ethiopia to cities where the products can be sold. The objective is to develop a chassis that can house several different modular structures for the purposes of transporting refrigerated goods, a mobile power grid, or people. Literature studies have been conducted on current electric vehicle markets, battery markets, chassis materials, and optimal cross-sections. The battery housings have also been analyzed from an environmental perspective to account for conditions in Ethiopia. Based on this, it was found that a four-wheeled ’minibus’ design including space for approximately fourteen custom batteries is optimal. It is essential to keep in mind that this project has been carried out both on a conceptual level within the framework of a degree project as well as a production project for use in Ethiopian rural areas. This master thesis project aims to provide a solid benchmark for further development and research within the subject.
