In this paper, an energy management strategy is proposed for a series plug-in hybrid electric vehicle. A number of quadratic equations are employed to determine the engine fuel-rate with respect to battery power. The problem is solved by using quadratic programming and simulated annealing method...

This paper proposes a penalty based differential evolution (P-DE) for extracting the parameters of solar photovoltaic (PV) modules at different environmental conditions. The two diode model of a solar cell is used as the basis for the extraction problem. The analyses carried out using synthetic...

In this paper, an integrated rule-based meta-heuristic optimization approach is used to deal with a multi-level energy management system for a multi-source electric vehicle for sharing energy and power between two sources with different characteristics, namely one with high specific energy...
