Electric vehicle design, racing and distance to empty algorithms
This research began with the goal of designing and building an electric motorcycle to compete in the Isle of Man TT Zero race. A set of parametric physics-based models was derived to size the batteries and motors, predict vehicle speeds and predict the time required to finish the race. In June 2011 …
